» Incident Response

Incidents happen despite best efforts. Cybercrime causes multi-billion dollar damages to business. The information stored in your organization’s network is a valuable commodity. Personal information, credit card data, customer information, loyalty program data, intellectual capital, confidential documents, and other forms of sensitive information are all appealing targets for hackers and organized crime.

Complication

The external threats are great. The internal threats are greater. It is estimated that 80% of all malicious attacks originate from inside businesses’ firewalls, initiated intentionally or unintentionally by people in positions of trust. The cost of an incident can be substantial in terms of lost time, effort and assets. If knowledge of the incident becomes public, the reputational and financial losses can become even greater. Often in the heat of responding to an incident, rushed decisions can cause unintended consequences that compound the initial breach or attack. Loss of services, compromise of evidence, leaks to the public domain, and unintentional creation of new vulnerabilities will compound initial reputational and financial costs of the incident.
