# AI Incident Management

Incident management provides a structured process for identifying, assessing, responding to, documenting, and learning from AI-related incidents.

## Purpose

Incidents can reveal previously unknown risks, control weaknesses, governance failures, or changes in the operating environment.

Incident management connects operational response with governance improvement.

## Core activities

Incident handling may include:

* detection and reporting
* initial assessment
* classification and escalation
* response
* containment or remediation
* evidence preservation
* stakeholder communication
* root-cause analysis
* corrective action
* follow-up review

## Governance impact

Significant incidents may trigger reassessment of risk, controls, approval status, monitoring requirements, or intended use.
