Recovery
Recovery in cybersecurity incident response refers to the process of restoring systems, data, and services to their normal or improved operational state after a cyberattack. This phase ensures that the organization can resume its business functions efficiently and securely.

TECHNICAL DEFINITION
Recovery is a critical incident response phase focused on restoring affected systems, services, and data to an operational state, often pre-incident or an enhanced, more resilient posture, following successful eradication and remediation of a cyber incident, thereby ensuring business continuity and operational resumption.
