ISC2 Systems Security Certified Practitioner (SSCP) Practice Question

While monitoring an AWS-hosted application late at night, a junior analyst sees unusually high outbound traffic that may indicate data exfiltration. The incident response lead begins executing the organization's incident communication plan. According to NIST SP 800-61 guidance on detection, analysis, and escalation, which feature of the plan most directly enables the team to distribute timely, accurate, and consistent information to all affected stakeholders and avoid misinformation?

  • Predefined stakeholder contact details and standardized notification templates vetted by legal and public-relations teams.

  • A requirement that no information may be shared externally until the CEO personally conducts a press conference.

  • Instructions for technical staff to purge security logs until an official statement can be drafted.

  • A rule that all customer-facing services must be taken offline immediately after any suspicious network alert.
