Episode 46 — Spaced Review: investigate, contain, eradicate, recover, and learn without guesswork
This episode consolidates the incident response execution flow that GSOM repeatedly evaluates, helping you recognize which phase a question is targeting and what “best next step” logic applies. You will revisit rapid scoping with hypotheses and timelines, then reinforce containment as risk-reducing actions chosen with business impact in mind and verified through telemetry. We will review eradication and recovery as gated processes that require proof of removal and controlled reentry, and then connect the full cycle to lessons learned as a mechanism for improving detections, playbooks, and readiness. Short scenario cues will help you practice avoiding common traps such as taking disruptive actions without approvals, erasing evidence during cleanup, or declaring recovery before validating that persistence is gone and access pathways are closed.
