verified against its source document
Every control below is one this framework asks for. The right hand column counts how
many other frameworks in our corpus carry the same control, which is the difference between
doing this work once and doing it again for the next standard.
NIST SP 800-61 Incident Handling Evidence & Implementation Kit
8 controls is the documentation set somebody has to write. This is that set,
already written: an adopt-ready artifact for every control in policy and procedure text you
edit rather than draft, and the evidence checklist an auditor asks for against each.

The same set every buyer of this kit receives. Nothing here is produced on request.
What you already have
Frameworks whose controls overlap this one, most first. If you run any of them, the
count is roughly what you have already evidenced.

Tell me when NIST SP 800-61 files something new
One email when a public company newly discloses something this framework governs, naming the company and what our corpus says it puts in scope. Nothing else, and one click to stop.
What an auditor will ask you to produce
The artefacts named on the failure modes this framework speaks to.
- approved IR policy with management commitment + scope + roles + reportable incidents + measures
- IR plan with mission + strategy + senior management approval + communication paths
- operational procedures + technical SOPs + toolkits + checklists
- annual review evidence and post-incident review trigger
- approved contingency planning policy with scope + roles + resources + training + testing + maintenance
- plan coordination matrix per SP 800-34 Section 2.2 covering COOP + BCP + BRP + IRP + DRP + Crisis Comms + ISCP + CIRP + OEP
How programmes fail on this

What this page is
A control-level reference for NIST SP 800-61, drawn from our framework corpus. Control codes and
titles are references to the standard, not reproductions of it. The overlap counts and the
auditor artefacts are our own work and are the part you will not find elsewhere.
