9.3.5 Containment, Eradication, and Recovery
As with the other phases of Incident Response, close coordination with all stakeholders is required to ensure that strategies developed to contain, eradicate, and recover from an incident are effective, efficient, and take into consideration all legal and privacy implications. The strategies must be also consistent with business goals and seek to minimize disruption to service. This is considerably more challenging when multiple organizations are involved in the response, as is the case with cloud computing.
