I wrote a paper a few years ago on basic incident handling. It's
at http://www.securitywizards.com/papers and called "How to Handle
and Identify Network Probes".

Dear all,

I am currently compiling a paper on incident handling, i.e., actions/steps
to be taken when an incident occurs, example would be if a mail bombing
occurs,
Step 1: nullify the incoming email
Step 2: Check the previous saved email of the sender
Step 3: configure the router or firewall to block the sender
Step 4 and so on and so on.

Is there a site where this kind of information could be found?
I have checked SANS, CERT and Securityfocus sites and only found incident
handling on virus and system compromise, nothing on mail bomb, launchpad,
web defacement, DNS attack, syn flooding, DOS, etc.

TIA

Thanks and regards
Kwan Hep Chuen
