When an organisation is faced with a cyber security incident which is disrupting services or has caused a breach, they do not have many sources to advise them on how to not only contain the situation, but recover from it in the long term.

An organisation's ability to accept an incident, no matter how devastating it might be, and its ability to respond and build itself back up again, could make a difference to the damage the incident causes in the long term.

What we offer

We will support you by operating as your advisor through a cyber security incident that may have occurred in your environment. This includes helping you navigate your incident response challenges through the following activities:

• Identifying the cyber security measures that need to be applied to contain a security event.
• Supporting root cause analysis to understand how a security event occurred.
• Working with your senior management to update existing controls and processes to mitigate the chance of future security events.

How we can help

• We can help you manage your security incidents.
• We can work with you beyond the initial response to build capability so you can prevent the incident from happening again.
• We can help you develop cyber security plans so you can ensure a focused, effective, and efficient response when you need it.

Our team has strong understanding of the different types of security incidents and the immediate actions required to contain the breach in the short term, as well as investigating root causes.
