Incident response plan (IRP): A documented set of procedures and guidelines for how an organization should respond to a security incident. It is used to ensure that all necessary steps are taken in a timely and efficient manner. For example, an IRP may outline the roles and responsibilities of an incident response team, as well as the communication protocols and processes for mitigating the impact of an incident.
