Re-engineering Veldhoven Bancorp's incident severity model after it failed four times in one year: the severity board of eight tiles — failure modes, dimensions, clocks, scenarios, escalation, re-rating, calibration and governance; re-rating last year's incidents, where 247 P2s were really 64 SEV2s, 31 P1s were really 18 SEV1s and about 266,000 euros of bridge cost was avoidable, while rater agreement rose from kappa 0.41 to 0.74; and incident INC-2318, a 03:12 false positive that once woke a fourteen-person crisis team and under the new rules is confirmed SEV4 by three people at 03:52.

Incident Severity Model Scenario Design — The Severity Board

An expert-level course that engineers the severity model itself - the dimensions and numbered anchors, the decision rules that work with half the facts, the regulatory clocks wired to them, a library of ambiguous, multi-vector and third-party scenarios, tiered authority with a provisional path, signed re-rating and closure rules, measured calibration and back-testing, and the governance and metrics that keep it honest - so that severity is assigned consistently under pressure and defended afterwards. Four hands-on activities in every lesson.

What you'll learn

  • Diagnose why a severity model over-declares, under-declares, cannot classify third-party impact and freezes bad calls, with figures.
  • Design impact dimensions, numbered scale anchors and decision rules that produce a provisional level under uncertainty.
  • Map GDPR, DORA, NIS2, PSD2 and contractual notification clocks to dimensions and levels with defined start events and a timeliness ledger.
  • Classify ambiguous, multi-vector, third-party, multi-entity and cumulative scenarios consistently and build a scenario library that teaches the rules.
