Explanation:

Incident response is a process that detects a problem, determines its cause, minimizes the
damages, resolves the problem, and documents each step of response for future reference. One
of the primary goals of incident response is to “freeze the scene”. There is a close relationship
between incident response, incident handling, and incident management. The primary goal of
incident handling is to contain and repair any damage caused by an event and to prevent any
further damage. Incident management manages the overall process of an incident by declaring the
incident and preparing documentation and post-mortem reviews after the incident has occurred.
