root-cause-analysis

Root cause analysis is a methodical approach that helps find the actual cause behind the incident that took place, resulting in quick problem resolution.

Mostly problems or faults occur due to a series of events. By running a root cause analysis, team members can investigate these series of events and find the primary cause contributing to the major fault.

This technique is not restricted to just treating the symptom but finding the root cause of the problem.

Unlike the surface-level analysis, this practice includes a wide range of steps leading to finding the actual cause. Further, it lets you spot other weak points and system vulnerabilities during the analysis.
