Original CDG company post
AI incident readiness needs an operational plan.
On October 16, NIST, NSA and CISA published ten voluntary practices for incidents during super intelligence (SI) training and evaluation. The primary audience is organizations training or evaluating highly capable SI agents on long-horizon tasks with limited human supervision; the practices may also apply to deployers.
The guide organizes readiness around five stages: prepare, detect, respond, recover and report. It builds on CSF 2.0 and NIST SP 800-61r3.
For teams reviewing advanced-agent risk, several recommendations deserve attention: • Limit agent access and define intended task boundaries • Protect monitoring processes and logs from agent interference • Preserve evidence and establish containment and shutdown mechanisms • Validate controls and document residual risk before resuming activity
For federal technology teams and suppliers, this is a useful reference when reviewing evaluation environments and incident-response readiness. The publication provides voluntary guidance for its stated audience, not a new governmentwide contract requirement.
