# Playbooks

The dashboard integrates with the correlation rules, providing management of responses to security incidents. Through a paginated list, the <mark style="color:green;">dashboard allows for the addition, editing, deletion, and activation of playbooks in an intuitive and organized manner.</mark>

The ability to activate or deactivate playbooks as needed ensures that responses to incidents are prompt.

### Phases of Incident Response

<mark style="color:green;">It is possible to manage treatment steps for each of the incident response phases</mark>, as outlined by the most renowned market frameworks, with the possibility of assigning the responsibility of the stage to the MSP or the company.&#x20;

The stages are:&#x20;

1. **Preparation:** <mark style="color:green;">Prepare the incident response team</mark> to efficiently deal with potential threats. (E.g., Team training, creation and updating of documentation).&#x20;
2. **Identification:** The first active response stage, where the <mark style="color:green;">veracity of the incident is determined</mark>. Detailed analysis to confirm whether the incident is a false positive or a real threat.&#x20;
3. **Containment:** Implemented only if the incident is confirmed. Execute <mark style="color:green;">measures to prevent the spread of the threat</mark> (e.g., isolation of systems or network segmentation).&#x20;
4. **Eradication:** <mark style="color:green;">Identify and eliminate the root cause of the incident</mark> (e.g., Removal of malware, correction of vulnerabilities, and strengthening of security controls).&#x20;
5. **Recovery:** Take the necessary <mark style="color:green;">measures to return the environment to normal operation</mark> (e.g., Verification of system integrity, data restoration from backups, and post-recovery monitoring).
