Frameworks

Aligned, audited, documented.

Incident response

When something is on fire.

Our DFIR engineers carry runbooks for the scenarios we see most: business-email compromise, ransomware deployment, insider misuse, lost device. Notification clocks start the moment we engage.

Standard response

  • T+0 ·Engineer on call within 15 minutes (P1)
  • T+1h ·Containment — isolate hosts, revoke sessions, freeze accounts
  • T+4h ·Forensic image of affected systems, evidence chain established
  • T+24h ·Root-cause hypothesis, eradication plan, communication template
  • T+72h ·Notification window for regulated breaches (HIPAA, FL §501.171)
  • T+10d ·Final incident report with corrective actions, written by humans

What we do not do

We do not pay ransoms. We do not negotiate with threat actors on a client's behalf without written authorization, legal counsel, and (for sanctioned groups) Treasury OFAC clearance. We document every decision so the record exists if regulators or insurers ask.

Retainer clients have an after-hours line in their welcome packet. Non-clients can engage us as same-day rescue at the published premium rate; SOW lands by email within an hour of intake.
