TIPS (Schema for Investigating Cybercrime)

TIPS (Schema for Investigating Cybercrime) is a structured framework used by cybersecurity professionals to systematically analyze and respond to cybercrimes. It guides investigators through key steps like identifying the threat, gathering evidence, understanding the attacker’s methods, and determining the impact. The goal is to ensure thorough, efficient, and accurate investigations that help detect, mitigate, and prevent future cyber attacks. TIPS helps organizations organize their response, maintain evidence integrity, and improve overall cybersecurity resilience by providing a clear process for handling cybercrime incidents.
