For purposes of the CSIRT Services Framework, the capabilities can either be defined as the broader Services or as the requisite Functions. The capability measures “How good” the service can be delivered, how extensive or deep a malware sample can be analyzed. Capability is often referred to as proficiency or maturity and is used synonymously.

Comment: Capacity may include infrastructure and physical means, institutions, societal coping abilities, as well as human knowledge, skills and collective attributes such as social relationships, leadership and management. Capacity also may be described as capability. Capacity assessment is a term for the process by which the capacity of a group is reviewed against desired goals, and the capacity gaps are identified for further action.

In capability-based planning, a capability includes the following elements: planning, organization and leadership, personnel, equipment and systems, training, and

Capaciteiten zijn de mensen, kunde en middelen voorhanden om daadwerkelijk adequaat in te kunnen grijpen. [6]
Een capaciteit is het vermogen van de (rijks)overheid en private partners om taken uit te voeren die (mede) tot doel hebben de nationale veiligheid te beschermen. [8]
These tasks involve specific combinations of resources (e.g. material or information systems), people (e.g. civilians, members of the armed forces) and methods (e.g. procedures, plans, training exercises and public-private partnerships). Capabilities can help to reduce the likelihood and/or impact of one or more threats. They cover the entire spectrum of prevention, preparation, response, control and recovery.
Het gaat hierbij om bepaalde combinaties van middelen (bijv. materiaal of informatiesystemen), mensen (civiel, militair, et cetera) en methoden (zoals procedures, plannen, oefenen, PPS-verbanden). Capaciteiten helpen de kans en/of de impact van een of meerdere dreigingen te reduceren. Capaciteiten kunnen het totale spectrum van preventie, preparatie, respons, repressie en nazorg beslaan.
