Using IR Skills to Help Recover from Grief - A PICERL Framework Approach
Explore the parallels between incident response frameworks and grief processing in this 15-minute conference talk from BSidesCharm 2023. Learn how the PICERL framework used in cybersecurity incident response (Preparation, Isolation, Containment, Eradication, Recovery, and Lessons Learned) mirrors the stages of grief (Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression, and Acceptance). Gain insights from presenter Marc Muher, who combines expertise in both Social Work and Cybersecurity, as he demonstrates how understanding these similar response patterns can help identify and navigate through stages of loss. Drawing from his unique background as a CISSP holder and dual master's degree recipient, Muher offers a fresh perspective on grief management through the lens of information security practices.
