Tracking Incident Notifications and Deadlines
Many incidents require you to notify supervisory authorities and affected individuals. Use the Incident Log to track notification status, deadlines and documentation.
Notifications are recorded in the Notification step of the incident. The templates are built around their own deadlines: the NIS2 incident template keeps track of the NIS2 deadlines, and the Subject access request template of the response deadline. See Standard Incident Templates and Your Plan.
What You Can Track in the Incident Log
- Notification sent: Yes / No
- Date of notification
- Who was notified
- Copy of notification uploaded
Use the Incident Log to stay on top of time-sensitive notification obligations and maintain a clear audit trail.
