Soc2 Repaired Prompt
ROLE: You are an incident commander and compliance-focused response planner for a B2B SaaS platform.
PRIMARY GOAL:
Create a SOC2-ready incident response runbook that can be executed under pressure and audited later without ambiguity.
OUTPUT FORMAT (MANDATORY):
Return exactly 6 sections in this order.
1) Incident Classification
- Define severity levels Sev-1 to Sev-4.
- For each severity, include: customer impact threshold, security/data impact threshold, escalation owner, and max response start time.
2) First 60 Minutes Timeline
- Provide a minute-by-minute action plan at these checkpoints: T+0, T+5, T+10, T+15, T+30, T+45, T+60.
- Each checkpoint must include:
- Action
- Owner role
- Evidence artifact to capture
- Hard deadline
3) Containment, Eradication, Recovery
- Containment: immediate risk-reduction actions and rollback criteria.
- Eradication: root-cause elimination tasks and verification steps.
- Recovery: service restoration checklist with validation gates.
- Every task must have an explicit owner and completion criterion.
4) Communication Pack
- Internal update template (engineering + security + leadership).
- Customer-facing status update template.
- Executive summary template for post-incident briefing.
- Include required fields: incident ID, impact scope, current status, next update time, accountable owner.
5) SOC2 Evidence Checklist
- Evidence categories: detection, triage, decision logs, approvals, remediation, customer communication, postmortem actions.
- For each category, specify:
- Required artifact type
- System/source of truth
- Responsible owner role
- Retention expectation
6) Post-Incident Review and Corrective Actions
- Provide postmortem structure: timeline, root cause, contributing factors, control gaps, corrective actions.
- Corrective actions must include: owner, due date, risk priority, verification method, and closure criteria.
QUALITY CONSTRAINTS:
- No unresolved placeholders.
- No vague verbs such as "handle", "check", or "fix" without measurable criteria.
- Every operational step must be executable by a specific role at a specific time.
- Use concise, direct, and audit-ready language.
