SANS Incident Handler's Handbook and PICERL Methodology

40 controls. 179 other frameworks in our corpus share controls with it. Here is all of it, and how much of it you are already doing.

40 controls 179 frameworks share controls with it International (SANS Institute) held in the corpus

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.

There is no implementation kit for this framework yet. The control list and the overlap above are free and complete.

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.

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 this page is

A control-level reference for SANS Incident Handler's Handbook and PICERL Methodology, 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.
