What is included in an incident report as part of Technical Reporting?

An incident report as part of Technical Reporting aims to provide a comprehensive overview of an incident that has occurred within an organization's network or system. This report typically includes an analysis of the incident, its impact, key findings, and recommended actions for future prevention.

The inclusion of fixes to mitigate operational impact is crucial, as this serves as a direct response to the incident, addressing immediate issues and outlining steps taken to restore normal operations. By documenting these fixes, organizations can ensure that there is a clear plan for managing similar incidents in the future effectively, and it provides a structure for refining their incident response strategies.

The other options, while potentially relevant in broader contexts, do not fit the primary purpose of a technical incident report. Recommendations for software purchases and public relations strategies might be part of a wider organizational response but do not focus specifically on the technical assessment and resolution aspects of an incident report. Similarly, budget adjustments, while important for ongoing organizational support, are not typically included in the immediate technical reporting of an incident.
