Metodo seguito means the reasoning and steps used to reach a decision, not just the final outcome. In cyber security, this is the difference between saying a control or investigation was “done” and being able to show how it was done, why certain evidence was trusted, and how the conclusion was reached.
This matters because attackers often exploit weak process as much as weak technology. A team that cannot explain its method may miss indicators, apply controls inconsistently, or fail to defend its actions in an audit or incident review. Good methods create traceability: logs, ticket notes, risk criteria, escalation paths, and review steps that let others reconstruct the decision. In defense, a clear method improves repeatability, accountability, and incident response quality. In compliance, it shows that judgments were systematic rather than improvised.
