Incident response playbooks
Use these field-oriented playbooks to coordinate SOC, IR, legal, and leadership teams during high-stakes malware incidents. They are designed for rapid decision-making and evidence integrity.
Ransomware Active Detonation
Critical- 1.Isolate impacted assets and disable privileged shared credentials.
- 2.Preserve memory and disk snapshots before mass reboot or restoration actions.
- 3.Protect backup repositories and verify immutability controls.
- 4.Initiate legal and cyber-insurance notification workflows with evidence timeline.
Web Skimmer / Magecart-Like Injection
High- 1.Move payment endpoints to maintenance mode while preserving server and CDN logs.
- 2.Diff scripts and templates against trusted release artifacts.
- 3.Rotate secrets for payment APIs, admin panels, and deployment pipelines.
- 4.Publish targeted customer communication once exposure scope is validated.
Worm/Lateral Movement Outbreak
High- 1.Segment suspicious network zones and enforce emergency ACL controls.
- 2.Disable removable-media propagation vectors and shared local admin accounts.
- 3.Push IOC-driven endpoint sweeps plus credential reset for high-privilege users.
- 4.Map reinfection loops before rejoining systems to production segments.
Escalation workflow
Use these playbooks for initial control, then open a scoped MalwareXpose project to transition from emergency containment into forensic analysis and remediation prioritization.
