Cybercrime is a harsh reality of the digital age.  According to the IBM 2023 Cost of Data Breach Report, the average organization takes a staggering 277 days to identify and contain a data breach. This delay can be devastating, leading to significant financial losses, reputational damage, and operational disruption.

Our Incident Response service empowers you to take control in the face of a cyberattack, minimizing damage and restoring normal operations swiftly.

Here's how we ensure your organization is prepared:

Pre-Incident Planning: We don't wait for a breach to strike before formulating a plan.  We work closely with you to develop a well-defined Incident Response (IR) plan outlining clear roles, responsibilities, and step-by-step procedures for:

• Containment: Stopping the attack in its tracks and preventing further damage.

• Eradication: Identifying and eliminating the root cause of the breach.

• Recovery: Restoring affected systems and data as quickly and efficiently as possible.

Post-Incident Review: Analyzing the incident to identify weaknesses and implement preventative measures to strengthen your security posture.

Faster Identification & Response:   Having a well-tested IR plan is crucial.  The IBM report highlights that organizations with both an IR team and IR plan testing identified breaches 54 days faster than those without.  Our team guides you through every step of the incident response process, minimizing the costly window of vulnerability.

Expert Guidance Through the Storm: A cyberattack can be a stressful and confusing time.  Our experienced professionals will be by your side throughout the incident, providing clear guidance, technical expertise, and unwavering support.

Ransomware Expertise:  The IBM report also revealed that ransomware breaches take an average of 49 days longer to identify and contain with an average cost of USD 5.13 million, increased 13% from the average cost of 2022.  Our team possesses specialized knowledge and experience in handling ransomware attacks, ensuring a swift and strategic response to minimize disruption and data loss.

Benefits of a Proactive Incident Response Strategy:

• Reduced Downtime & Costs: A swift and effective response minimizes the duration of a breach, reducing associated downtime and financial losses.

• Improved Business Continuity: By minimizing the impact of a cyberattack, you can ensure business continuity and maintain operational efficiency.

As a fact, given the high cost of most ransomware demands, organizations that paid the ransom likely ended up spending more overall than those that didn’t pay the ransom(IBM 2023 Cost of Data Breach Report).
