building-malware-incident-communication-template

building-malware-incident-communication-template is a skill for Claude Code from 26zl/cybersec-toolkit. It costs 37 tokens per session (2,399 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A collection of message templates and escalation rules for communicating during malware incidents, including updates for executives, technical teams, customers, regulators, and the media. Malware is software designed to harm systems, steal information, or gain unauthorized access.

In plain words
What is it for?
Prepare internal alerts, executive briefings, technical notices, customer communications, regulatory disclosures, and media statements for different malware incidents.
Why use it?
It helps teams send accurate, audience-appropriate updates under pressure instead of writing every message from scratch. Severity-based rules clarify who should be informed and how quickly.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

building-malware-incident-communication-template scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/agent.py, scripts/process.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Building Malware Incident Communication Template

Overview

Effective communication during malware incidents is critical for coordinated response, stakeholder management, and regulatory compliance. A structured communication framework ensures the right people receive appropriate information at the right time, preventing panic while maintaining transparency. Communication templates should cover internal escalation, executive briefings, technical advisories for IT teams, customer notifications, regulatory disclosures, and media statements. The framework must account for different malware types (ransomware, wiper, trojan, worm) and severity levels that drive escalation speed and audience.

When to Use

  • When deploying or configuring building malware incident communication template capabilities in your environment
  • When establishing security controls aligned to compliance requirements
  • When building or improving security architecture for this domain
  • When conducting security assessments that require this implementation

Prerequisites

  • Familiarity with incident response concepts and tools
  • Access to a test or lab environment for safe execution
  • Python 3.8+ with required dependencies installed
  • Appropriate authorization for any testing activities

Communication Framework

Severity Classification

Severity Description Notification Timeline Audience
P1 - Critical Ransomware, wiper, or widespread infection affecting business operations Within 15 minutes CISO, CEO, Legal, Board (if applicable)
P2 - High Targeted malware on critical systems, data exfiltration suspected Within 1 hour CISO, IT Director, Legal
P3 - Medium Contained malware infection, limited spread Within 4 hours Security Manager, IT Director
P4 - Low Single endpoint infection, quickly contained Within 24 hours Security Team Lead

Communication Channels

Channel Use Case Security Level
Out-of-band phone calls Initial critical notifications Highest
Encrypted messaging (Signal) Real-time IR team coordination High
Secure email (encrypted) Formal notifications, documentation High
War room (physical/virtual) Ongoing incident coordination Medium
Incident ticketing system Status tracking and documentation Medium
Company intranet Broad employee communication Standard

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
