An agile cybersecurity incident management platform for tracking, reporting, and responding to security incidents.
FIR (Fast Incident Response) is an open-source cybersecurity incident management platform designed to help security teams track, manage, and report security incidents efficiently. It provides a centralized system for creating incidents, monitoring their progress, and generating reports, aiming to accelerate response times and improve coordination during security events.
Security teams such as CSIRTs (Computer Security Incident Response Teams), CERTs (Computer Emergency Response Teams), SOCs (Security Operations Centers), and any organization needing structured incident tracking and response capabilities.
Developers choose FIR for its agility, low resource requirements, and flexibility—it’s tailored for speed in incident handling while being generic enough for customization, and it runs smoothly on minimal hardware without sacrificing functionality.

Setting up for production requires following a separate wiki guide, which can be complex and time-consuming compared to automated or containerized deployments.
Deep customizations or integrations require knowledge of Django and Python, limiting accessibility for teams without in-house development expertise.
While designed to be generic, it may lack built-in features for specific compliance standards or advanced analytics, necessitating additional development effort.
