Which of the following is the MOST effective use of AI in incident response?

AAISM’s risk management guidance notes that the most effective application of AI in incident response is in automating triage activities. AI systems can rapidly analyze logs, alerts, and telemetry to prioritize incidents, reducing response times and allowing human analysts to focus on critical issues. Streamlining testing and improving playbooks are valuable but secondary benefits. Ensuring chain of custody is critical for legal admissibility of evidence but is primarily a human and process-driven control, not AI’s strength. The greatest efficiency and effectiveness comes from AI-driven triage automation.
