RESPOND

An Attack Doesn’t Have to Be a Setback.

The Respond phase in the NIST Cybersecurity Framework focuses on taking swift action to contain and eradicate a detected security incident. This involves isolating infected systems to prevent the threat from spreading and eradicating the malware or attacker's presence. Communication is also crucial during this phase, as the security team keeps stakeholders informed about the incident and its impact.Evidence is collected and preserved for potential legal action or future analysis to improve future response efforts. The goal of the Respond phase is to minimize damage, restore normal operations as quickly as possible, and learn from the incident to strengthen your overall security posture. Our team will be with you every step of the way, protecting business continuity and stakeholder relationships.

We’ve got your back.

  • Attacks aren’t always avoidable, but we can help you to mitigate the damage. During this phase, we will:
  1. 1

    Containment and eradication

    We isolate infected systems to prevent them from communicating with the rest of the network and eradicate the attacker's presence by removing malware, patching vulnerabilities exploited by the attack, and potentially resetting compromised accounts.

  2. 2

    Assessment and analysis

    This involves determining the full extent of the breach, including affected systems and compromised data. Identifying the root cause of the incident is paramount to prevent recurrence. Gathering evidence strengthens the investigation, supports potential legal actions, and provides essential insights for effective communication strategies and developing plans for recovery and prevention.

  3. 3

    Communication and learning

    Keeping everyone informed is crucial. The security team will communicate the nature and impact of the incident to relevant stakeholders, including executives and affected users. We’ll collect and preserve evidence and analyze the incident to identify lessons learned and prevent similar attacks from happening again.

Anomalies and events

This service focuses on identifying unusual activity within your network. We use advanced statistical analysis tools to detect deviations from established baselines in your network traffic or system behavior. These deviations, called anomalies, could be anything from unexpected spikes in login attempts to sudden changes in resource usage on servers. By proactively identifying these anomalies, the security team can investigate potential threats before they escalate into major incidents.

Continuous monitoring

Continuous monitoring is essential during incident response to maintain visibility into systems and networks, detect potential indicators of compromise, and prevent further damage. That way, we can identify anomalous activity, accelerate incident response, and track the effectiveness of containment measures.

Event analysis

Our teams analyze the collected data using pre-defined rules and anomaly detection algorithms. When something suspicious happens, like a sudden spike in failed login attempts or unusual data transfers, the team investigates these events to determine if they represent a real threat or a false positive. By analyzing these events, they can identify and respond to potential security incidents quickly.
