Individual skill
triaging-security-incident
Performs initial triage of security incidents using the NIST SP 800-61r3 and SANS PICERL frameworks, classifying incident type, assigning priority by business impact, and routing to the appropriate response team. Use when a SIEM/EDR alert needs human classification, concurrent alerts must be prioritized, or a user report or threat-intel IOC match requires initial incident categorization.

# Triaging Security Incidents
## When to Use
- A SIEM or EDR alert fires and requires human classification before escalation
- Multiple concurrent alerts arrive and the SOC must prioritize response order
- An end user reports suspicious activity and the incident needs initial categorization
- A threat intelligence feed matches an IOC observed in the environment
**Do not use** for routine vulnerability scanning results or compliance audit findings that do not represent active security incidents.
## Prerequisites
- Access to SIEM platform (Splunk, Elastic, Microsoft Sentinel) with current alert data
