Objectives of Incident Response
Incident Response services are essential for effectively responding to cyber attacks. These services provide expert assistance to identify, contain, eradicate, and recover from a security incident.
In the event of a ransomware attack, our Incident Response service can help your business return to normal safely. In the case of a potential data breach, our Incident Response service can help you identify the exfiltrated data and contain any ongoing leaks.
Proactive or Reactive Approach
How to handle Incident Response
Incident response can be prepared in advance of events or addressed on a case-by-case and reactive basis, already under incident. In an incident situation, there is a big difference between organizations that have had time for adequate preparation and those that have not. Our service can respond to organizations in both situations:
Response with Prior Preparation
- Under an annual service mode, with the Incident Response team on retainer to minimize response times.
- Agile effectiveness, with maximum guarantees of identification and containment of the incident.
- Priority response 24x7x365, with a commitment to respond in less than 1 hour.
Response without Prior Preparation
- Service on demand and in an incident situation, where in the first moments of the response it will be necessary to properly enroll the Incident Response team.
- The start of the investigations is not as immediate as in the proactive approach.
- The response will still be 24x7x365, but without a dedicated retainer.
Proactive Incident Response Service
Anticipation is key to effectively responding to a security incident. Some tasks performed in advance include:
- Regular Readiness Assessments to ensure the immediate deployment of the Incident Response team when an incident occurs.
- Periodic Compromise Assessments to assist in identifying previously undetected malicious activity.
- Incident drills to improve the efficiency of the responses provided in the event of an incident.
- Threat analysis to identify Threat Actors that could cause an incident and make appropriate decisions to prevent it.
A well-crafted and up-to-date incident response plan can help organizations anticipate and respond effectively to security incidents.
Reactive Incident Response Service
Responding to a security incident without prior preparation requires solving challenges on the fly, such as:
- Gaining knowledge and context of the organization.
- Securing support from key organization personnel to enable remote access and grant permissions for the service to access relevant information.
- Deploying necessary tools and technologies to carry out the service.
The response with an unprepared Incident Response service is slower, thus requiring transparency and continuous communication of expectations in the face of any challenges not promptly resolved.
Our Incident Response Service
Our Incident Response service is available to address any incident 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Once an incident is reported and the service is activated, we assume the leadership of the response for a quick return to normalcy.
This involves managing the incident through the following phases:
1 - Understanding the Security Incident
Contextualization of the incident and initial situation.
Gathering information about the incident and corporate resources that may be used during the investigation.
Requesting access to corporate systems necessary to consult relevant information during the incident response.
2 - Investigation of the Incident
Analysis of relevant information for the identification of suspicious activity.
Identification of the extent of the compromise and the permissions the malicious actor responsible for the incident has to cause further damage.
3 - Response to the Incident
Orchestration of tailored responses based on the potential risk of receiving a greater impact than what has been produced.
Expulsion of the malicious actor from corporate assets to prevent further compromise of the organization.
4 - Incident Response reporting
Disclosure of all confirmed malicious activity.
Establishment of a timeline with the main events of the incident.
Identification of exploited weaknesses and security controls that have not been effective.
Advice and suggestions for improvement to prevent recurrence.
