Evidence auditors usually ask for

A typical starting list. Your assessor's request list is the one that counts.

  • Incident response plan with roles, escalation paths and contact lists
  • Evidence the plan was tested or exercised (tabletop report) within the last 12 months
  • Incident tickets/records with timeline, root cause and lessons learned (or a statement that none occurred)
  • Breach notification procedure aligned to contractual and regulatory deadlines
