The Truth Behind the Breach. The Path to Recovery.
When a security incident occurs, speed and accuracy are paramount. Our Digital Forensics and Incident Analysis Service goes beyond simple cleanup; we conduct a meticulous, forensically sound investigation to determine the who, what, when, and how of a cyberattack. This crucial information is necessary for swift recovery, filing insurance claims, satisfying legal or regulatory requirements, and ultimately ensuring the attack never happens again.
The Challenge: Turning Chaos into Clarity
For SMBs, the period immediately following an incident is stressful and confusing. You need answers, but you risk destroying evidence without expert help. Key challenges include:
Evidence Preservation: Accidental deletion or overwriting of crucial data, making root cause analysis impossible.
Legal and Regulatory Risk: Failing to correctly document the breach for insurance, law enforcement, or regulatory bodies (e.g., GDPR, HIPAA breach notification).
Root Cause Confusion: Not knowing the initial point of entry, leaving your business open to immediate re-compromise.
Insurance Claim Denial: Lacking the detailed technical reports required by cyber insurance providers to process a claim.
Our Approach: Certified, Admissible Investigations
Our certified forensic analysts leverage skills from both the defense and offense sides of security to track the adversary’s steps with precision. Our approach ensures all evidence is preserved and analyzed correctly for technical, legal, and insurance purposes.
Key Service Pillars:
Forensically Sound Data Acquisition:
We use industry-standard tools and methodologies to acquire a “snapshot” of compromised systems (servers, endpoints, logs) without altering the original evidence.
This process ensures data integrity, crucial for any potential legal action or formal reporting.
Root Cause and Threat Actor Analysis:
We analyze network traffic, memory dumps, and operating system artifacts to precisely identify the initial compromise vector (e.g., phishing link, unpatched server) and map the attacker’s activity.
Data Exfiltration Assessment:
We determine what data was accessed, viewed, or exfiltrated, providing the necessary details for mandatory breach notifications and risk assessment.
Expert Reporting and Testimony:
We provide clear, detailed reports suitable for executive leadership, legal counsel, and insurance providers. Our findings are presented in an easy-to-understand format to support your internal and external needs.
The Deliverable: The Unvarnished Truth and a Recovery Roadmap
Our service provides clarity in a crisis, helping you move from panic to planned recovery.
Forensic Report: A comprehensive document detailing the attack timeline, the methods used, and the extent of the damage.
Insurance and Legal Support: Documentation and professional support to help streamline insurance claims and meet regulatory notification deadlines.
Post-Incident Hardening Plan: A Proactive Partnership roadmap detailing the specific technical and procedural gaps (e.g., patch management, policy enforcement) that must be addressed to prevent a recurrence.
