Control
The organization coordinates with organization-defined external organizations to correlate and share organization-defined incident information to achieve a cross-organization perspective on incident awareness and more effective incident responses.
Supplemental Guidance
The coordination of incident information with external organizations including, for example, mission or business partners, military or coalition partners, customers, and multitiered developers, can provide significant benefits. Cross-organizational coordination with respect to incident handling can serve as an important risk management capability. This capability allows organizations to leverage critical information from a variety of sources to effectively respond to information security-related incidents potentially affecting the organization's operations, assets, and individuals.
Responsibility
Customer Responsibility
The customer is responsible for identifying and coordinating with relevant external organizations to share and correlate incident information. They ensure that appropriate incident data is exchanged to enhance cross-organizational awareness and improve the effectiveness of incident response.
Guidance
Customer Responsibility
The customer should establish and maintain coordination with relevant external organizations (for example, business partners, service providers, and other stakeholders) to support effective incident response. This includes defining which external parties to engage and what types of incident information should be shared.
The customer should ensure that appropriate processes and agreements are in place for the timely correlation and sharing of incident information, enabling a broader, cross-organizational view of threats and incidents.
Additionally, the customer should leverage insights gained from external collaboration to enhance situational awareness, improve response effectiveness, and strengthen overall risk management across the organization’s operations, assets, and personnel.
