Cyber Incident Interoperability means the ability of organisations to work together in coherently as a matter of routine whilst responding to a cyber security or hybrid incident.

It includes how Cyber Security Incident Response Teams (CSIRTs), Emergency Services, private sector responders, and others, are prepared to work together effectively to minimise the real world impacts of a cyber incident.

Whilst Cyber Incident Responders are great at managing cyber incidents, the ability to work together with emergency services and others is limited by the lack of shared protocols, such as JESIP.
