Helpdesks serve as the initial line of defense for IT incidents, responsible for facilitating incident management, including logging, categorizing, and prioritizing incidents.

The success of this process relies on the expertise of the helpdesk staff in providing situational context to expedite resolution.

Here’s a crazy question: why do we still require a human to manually declare an incident for the things that we know are incidents? If we have enough confidence to build SLOs and high-severity alert routes for these specific scenarios, why are we still asking a human to confirm it’s an incident and get the assembly process in motion? Isn’t that just another button to push when we could be problem solving instead?

Incident response tools are software applications or platforms designed to assist security teams in identifying, managing, and resolving cybersecurity incidents.
