I am looking for a good source of information on incident response/handling.
While I do have some books none do a very good job on what do to for
different types of incidents; all provide only general information (contain,
erradicate, etc). I have done quite a bit of searching on Google and have
come up empty.

Does anyone know a resource that provides this type of information?

What sorts of things are you trying to log/handle? What do you mean by
"incidence response/handling"? That sounds either very generic, or very
specific to something in a context you haven't specified....

You didn't specify what sort of incidents, but a great place to start
would be on Microsoft's Technet:

I am looking for information on how to deal with different types of
incidents. The goal is to provide this to first responders so they can take
preliminary steps while the issue is being escalated.

For example, if one of our Internet-facing web sites is defaced do XYZ. If a
workstation is infected with a worm, then do ABC. If a user is attempting to
access a sensitive system without permission, then do 123.

I am looking for a resource that already has quite a bit done so I do not
have to reinvent the wheel.
