Incident Response Preparation and Planning

REQUEST DEMO
  • View More

    When your business is the target of the inevitable cyber-attack, how will you respond? Do you have an agile and up-to-date incident response plan and approach? Is your response team prepared to perform well in a crisis situation through regular plan testing? Do you have the appropriate resources pre-arranged and available to ensure a swift response to an incident?

    To effectively respond to a cyber-attack, you must have a solid plan, be prepared to execute, and have your resources ready to respond. Without a well-planned and rehearsed response capability, incidents will quickly become unmanageable, unpredictable and even chaotic situations. Every organization is different, each with its unique risks and threats, which requires a comprehensive incident response program that is up-to-date and tailored to the environment.

    Planning for an incident

    Being prepared for a cyber incident is essential in ensuring your incident response team can successfully navigate the tasks required to recover successfully. An effective response capability relies on an agile and up-to-date incident response plan that is tailored to the organization’s environment as well as confirmed access to experienced resources to supplement your in-house capabilities.

    Our incident planning service provides a detailed evaluation of the current state of your organization’s threat detection and incident response program against our best practices, national and international standards and understanding of current attacker methodology.

    The resulting information provides the foundation for creating an updated incident response plan that includes guidance on preparation, anomalous behavior detection, incident management, technical response and communications plans.

    Preparing for an incident

    Practice makes perfect is especially true when it comes to being prepared to execute an incident response plan, make sound decisions under duress and produce results in a difficult situation. Understanding the plan and team member roles and responsibilities is critical. Hence the team must routinely execute the plan against a variety of scenarios to develop the ‘muscle memory’ required to perform well in potential crisis situation.

    Whether tabletop exercise or mock attack, our experts lead the exercise that brings together all resources involved in the incident response plan including senior management. Our incident exercises are tailored to your organization, business sector and specific internal teams and skill sets. We provide a way for all relevant teams to experience the reality of a cyber-attack and prepare themselves to ensure they can respond successfully when it matters.

    Responding to an incident

    When facing a cyber incident your organization must be prepared and staffed to respond effectively. The appropriate resources must be pre-arranged and readily available to ensure a swift and successful response without unnecessary delay and potential chaos.

    Our incident response and management service provides the skilled resources and procedures to ensure successful containment, remediation and recovery of a data breach. Our incident management process addresses requirements for investigation, communications, briefings and stakeholder engagement activities.

    Incident readiness service

    The Incident Readiness Service (IRS) combines the incident planning and preparing components into an annual service that ensures your incident response plan and capabilities are reviewed and improved annually. Routine reviews and updates are essential to keep pace with cyber threat landscape and organizational dynamics. The IRS service provides additional benefits to include a prearranged incident response framework and the comfort of knowing that our talented and experience incident responders are available for the organization at a discounted rate.

Managed DDoS Protection

REQUEST DEMO
  • View More

    Volumetric and protocol-based DDoS attacks have the power to critically cripple your infrastructure.

    VARS can offer a full managed Infrastructure Protection service specifically designed to protect all elements of your mission-critical infrastructure across entire subnet ranges. Leveraging border gateway protocol (BGP) routing or through DNS redirection, this on-demand service provides blanket DDoS protection for all types of environments such as UDP/TCP, SMTP, FTP, SSH and VoIP. BGP routing also protects against “origin attacks”, whereby an attacker might otherwise be able to launch a DDoS attack directly on your Web server IP address without using DNS resolution.

    This service works as follows: in case of an attack, traffic is re-routed via BGP or DNS redirection through a powerful cloud-based scrubbing unit. Incoming network traffic is inspected and filtered, and only legitimate traffic is securely forwarded to your network via generic routing encapsulation (GRE) tunneling or, if using DNS redirection, it will be fully proxied to your IP address.

    Using proprietary, self-developed technologies built from the ground up, our solution identifies known and emerging threats as they appear and applies remedies in real time against all types of cyber-attacks. Comprehensive protection solution includes dedicated hardware (i.e., scrubbing servers) with the highest levels of resiliency and scalability in order to handle the smartest and largest network DDoS attacks. Only “clean” traffic reaches your servers, ensuring your continued operations and protecting your hardware, software and network infrastructure investment.

    Affordable and Simple to Set Up

    On-demand protection can be quickly operational to protect your infrastructure from any type of DDoS attack. Following the initial set-up of the GRE tunnel, you can activate or deactivate the protection via BGP routing or simple DNS change. No hardware, software or training investment required.

    Full Spectrum Protection

    Effectively protects your organization against the following types of DDoS attacks: TCP-SUN + ACK, TCP ACK, TCP ACK + PSH, TCP FIN, TCP RESET, TCP Fragment, UDP, ICMP, IGMP, HTTP Flood, DNS Flood to name just a few.

    Highly Scalable and Resilient

    Supported by a robust network of state-of-the-art data centers, we can instantly scale-up to deal with the largest and most sophisticated DDoS attacks.

    Comprehensive Shield

    By combining an infrastructure protection with its Web application firewall (WAF), DNS and SSL protection services, you’ll enjoy a full line of defence to successfully counter any DDoS threat.

    91% of cyber-attacks start with an email. Email is the main entry point for ransomware attacks. How is your organization protecting itself from email attacks? How are you ensuring sensitive data over email remain secure and untampered?

    VARS Corporation fully managed solution provides you with:

    1. Email encryption

    Email is protected at all point in the communication with AES 256 encryption (The data and the communication are encrypted). VARS email security solution addresses Data Loss Prevention (DLP), a particular issue of cybersecurity, which is regularly overlooked, but is also regularly put on the agenda by its exposure by the media during security breaches in companies or institutions. The solution allows users to maintain their usual environment, productivity and, if necessary, use the secure sending option, with great simplicity while guaranteeing excellent intrinsic safety.

    VARS is an easy-to-use, encryption-based digital message protection technology that integrates naturally into existing infrastructures and tools, such as the Outlook, Gmail, Office 365 or KeePass email client.

    VARS can be quickly and easily integrated with any technology that supports .net or javascript. Secure Exchanges provides its customers with a SDK (Software Development Kit) that can be integrated into a few lines of code.

    Some industry use cases:

    Financial and insurances

    Financial institutions must communicate regularly with their clients to provide them with any relevant updates (account statements, investment statements, etc.), temporary offers and passwords. The ability to transmit this information simply and with the usual communication channels for recipients would represent an advancement for this type of customer, while indirectly improving communication security by minimizing the risk due to the human factor.

    Professionals (accountants/lawyers)

    This type of client, in individual practice or in small groups, such as lawyers or notaries, often does not have the necessary resources to secure their external communications and their needs may be limited, with occasional shipments of sensitive documents to a given recipient. Conventional solutions are far too cumbersome and complex and inadequate.

    The Secure Exchange solution

    Perfectly adapted to this type of client and very easy to use for their recipients, who may not be very skilled in computer technologies.

    Miscellaneous companies or services

    Any entity has occasional or regular needs for the transfer of secure information. However, each entity has its own way of managing this type of internal communication, which is not necessarily compatible with the others.

    2. CryptoStopper

    Ransomware + malware detection using deception technology which sits inside the fence on your actual network, detecting and stopping malicious activity. Ability to inspect all email communications and attachments for malicious activities / payloads.
