How the AI Incident Response Playbook approaches this

You describe your organisation, jurisdiction, industry, risk appetite, and the AI tools currently in use. The tool produces a complete, structured playbook tailored to those inputs — designed to be opened, classified, and acted upon during a real incident.

The Executive Summary Word document is a one-page sign-off artifact for board / leadership. The detailed Excel workbook is the working operational instrument: classify severity, work through the 6 steps, populate the live incident log, dispatch the right communications template per severity tier, collect evidence, conduct the post-incident RCA, and track corrective actions to closure. Both are AI-assisted drafting aids intended to accelerate review by qualified incident-response, data-protection, and sector-regulatory practitioners.

What you get

• ✓ Two artefacts, two jobs: Executive Summary (.docx) for board sign-off, Operational Workbook (.xlsx) for real-time use during an incident — same incident, same source of truth, no fragmentation.
• ✓ P1–P4 severity classification with sector-specific incident examples + risk-appetite-driven escalation thresholds — internally consistent across the matrix, the 6-step process, the comms templates, and the wallet card.
• ✓ 12 ready-to-use communications templates (4 severities × 3 audiences) — no scrambling for wording mid-incident.
• ✓ Live Dashboard with native radar (per-step completion) + doughnut (overall response readiness) that auto-refresh as you toggle Status cells in the 6-Step Response sheet — visual progress for incident commanders without re-generation.
