Abstract
A system and method for responding to data security incidents in enterprise networks using an incident response bus (IR bus) within an incident management system is disclosed. An Incident Manager (IM) application of the system stores objects that include information concerning data security incidents that occur in enterprise networks managed by the incident management system. Users configure action conditions on the IM, the satisfaction of which cause the IM to send messages that include the information concerning the incidents to message queues, or destinations. Correspondingly, the IR bus includes plugins associated with the devices in each client's enterprise network, where each plugin can access the message destinations for the messages. The plugins, in one embodiment, also configure one or more chains of plugins that process the messages. The plugins then execute the chains of plugins to specify actions for the devices to execute to provide a response to the incidents.
