SOLUTIONS
WITHIN YOUR BUDGET

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.
