Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt (FUD) is not a new concept for organizations. Any incident can create an environment of fear and anxiety among the team. A security incident outbreak is often very stressful and brings about a lot of doubt and uncertainty. Decisions made in fear and anxiety will worsen the situation. Usually, small-sized companies do not have an Incident Response Team (IRT). In such scenarios, first responders usually lack the confidence required to deal with an incident.
