CISM - Incident Management - Section 4.5

Establish an incident classification and categorisation process to prioritise response activities appropriately.

Establish an incident classification and categorisation scheme that assigns severity levels and drives triage decisions to ensure response resources are directed appropriately. Recognise that consistent, well-defined classification criteria reduce response delays and prevent both under-resourcing of critical incidents and over-escalation of minor events.
