Function: Notification distribution (661ad685-bc5e-5522-84a2-a93f22704f24)
A security incident touches on many internal and potentially external entities and, possibly, systems, and networks. As CSIRTs are a central point for receiving reports of potential information security incidents, they also serve as a hub for notifying authorized points of contact about them. The notification usually will provide not only the appropriate technical details but also information about the expected response and a point of contact for any fellow-up.
