Explanation

An Incident Response Team (IRT) is typically composed of stakeholders needed to technically respond to, manage, and govern a security incident. Core members include information security professionals (technical response), legal representatives (liability and compliance), and senior management (authority and communication). Human Resources is less commonly a standing IRT member because their involvement is situational-mainly relevant when an incident involves an employee (e.g., insider threat). The other roles are almost universally present in any IRT composition.
