Ah, the age-old incident response dilemma. I'm leaning towards C as well. Can't forget those all-important escalation protocols, right? Although, a little vulnerability assessment never hurt anyone...

This question is a real head-scratcher! I'm going to have to go with C - determining the escalation path. Gotta love those NIST guides, they really cover all the bases.

Hmm, I'm not too sure about this one. I was thinking it might be D - performing a vulnerability assessment, but I could be wrong. Incident response is all about those critical steps, you know?

Ooh, this is a tricky one! The NIST guide definitely emphasizes the importance of post-incident activities. Let's see, I think the answer is C - they missed determining the escalation path.
