Selected Answer: B
A post-incident review is an important step in the incident response process. It allows the incident response team to evaluate their response to the incident and identify any areas for improvement. By conducting a thorough analysis of the incident, including the cause, the actions taken and the outcomes, the team can identify any gaps in their knowledge or processes that led to the incident taking longer to identify. This information can then be used to improve incident response procedures and to develop new strategies for identifying similar incidents more quickly in the future.

Pretty sure this is D. Trying to identify would have been easier with a SIEM solution to correlate all the event and incident data.

I am changing to B, sorry. It states this is the first time they encountered this incident. Then it asks how to identify similar incidents later. If all we care about is identifying similar incidents to an incident they had never occurred before it would be post-incident review. This way they can gain knowledge and understand what to identify for this particular incident and identify/navigate similar ones in the future.

2nd thought since the team already knows the "event" but spend much time to solve it, a post-incident review seems to be more helpful. So, B.

D. For sure. B is for IR process improvement, but without SIEM you never be able to identify complex and new cyber attacks in time.
