Mission Control determines the applicable response workflow through the relationship between response templates and incident types . Therefore, response templates are assigned to specific incident types , making option C the appropriate mechanism.
A response template provides structured guidance for handling a defined class of incident. Associating that template with an incident type creates deterministic workflow behavior: findings categorized into that incident type can receive the corresponding response structure. This approach is preferable to ad hoc assignment because it standardizes how analysts respond to recurring security scenarios.
The detection itself can provide useful classification and contextual metadata, but simply creating a detection in Enterprise Security does not inherently define the complete Mission Control response-template mapping. Likewise, the selection is not based on an unspecified AI process. SOAR can participate in downstream orchestration and automation, but Mission Control response-template configuration is not limited exclusively to SOAR.
Architecturally, this supports separation of concerns: detections identify suspicious behavior, incident categorization determines the operational response context, and response templates establish the standardized handling procedure.
