Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation (ECIH-aligned):

ISO/IEC 27001 Annex A.16 focuses on information security incident management, including reporting, assessment, response, and learning. The ECIH curriculum aligns closely with these requirements, emphasizing structured procedures and continuous improvement.

Option C is correct because it directly addresses the identified gaps: clear escalation channels, consistent outcome tracking, and incorporation of lessons learned. ECIH stresses that post-incident activities—often overlooked—are essential for improving readiness and preventing recurrence.

Option A supports preparedness but does not address systemic process gaps. Option B improves visibility but not governance. Option D is a technical control unrelated to incident learning and escalation.

Thus, implementing structured incident escalation and post-incident knowledge integration is the priority action for compliance and resilience.
