Fussion_GRC domain 7 of 15
Incident Response
Govern incidents from detection to lessons learned, including regulatory notification deadlines such as CERT-In's six hours.
Fussion_GRC consumes data from your existing tools. It does not perform security scanning.
- SIEM / SOAR (Splunk, Sentinel, QRadar)Real time
- EDR (CrowdStrike, Defender, SentinelOne)Real time
- ITSM (ServiceNow, Jira)Every 5 minutes
The problem
What problem this domain solves
Incident governance oversees how security incidents are classified, escalated, communicated, notified to regulators and reviewed. Detection and response tooling stays in your SIEM, SOAR and EDR.
For the CISO
Why this matters to the CISO
CERT-In requires reporting within six hours, the DPDP Act requires notification of personal data breaches, and RBI has its own timelines. The CISO must prove that each incident was handled to plan and on time.
Major incidents, impact, notification status and recurring causes.
How it works
How Fussion_GRC works in this domain
Fussion_GRC consumes data from your existing tools. It does not perform security scanning. It connects to the tools that already hold incidents data, then does the following:
- 01Classifies incidents against your severity matrix.
- 02Starts regulatory clocks (CERT-In, DPDP, RBI) where criteria apply.
- 03Tracks response tasks and stakeholder communication.
- 04Turns post-incident lessons into control and risk updates.
Data in
Exactly where the data comes from
| Source tool | Data received | Typical sync |
|---|---|---|
| SIEM / SOAR (Splunk, Sentinel, QRadar) | Security incidents and severity | Real time |
| EDR (CrowdStrike, Defender, SentinelOne) | Endpoint detections linked to incidents | Real time |
| ITSM (ServiceNow, Jira) | Incident tickets and actions | Every 5 minutes |
| Privacy module | Personal data involved | On event |
Typical frequencies; exact intervals depend on each tool's API limits and your configuration. Connector availability varies — see integrations.

AI assistance
How Fussion AI helps
Answers come from your own Fussion_GRC data, with sources. Learn about Fussion AI.
Questions you can ask
- "What happened in incident INC-204 and what is still open?"
- "Draft the CERT-In notification summary."
- "Which root causes repeated this year?"
- Notification deadlines tracked by memory during a crisis.
- Incident records split across SOC tickets, chat and email.
- Lessons learned never turned into control changes.
Every point links to its source record. Recommendation only — a named owner approves decisions.
