Cybersecurity
Incident Response.
We help you handle a cybersecurity incident and strengthen your cybersecurity. When nerves are frayed, stay calm and call us.
In an incident, what counts is taking the right steps in the right order.
What is Cybersecurity
Incident Response?
Cybersecurity incident response means handling a security incident. It includes removing the attackers from your systems, communicating clearly and putting security measures in place to prevent further attacks.
When things get critical.
For most companies, it is their first cybersecurity incident. The situation is critical, time is short, and many steps involving third parties have to happen in the right order. Experienced incident response helps you keep the damage to you and to third parties low. This preserves the trust of your customers and partners.
Proven approach.
Our team of experienced security experts stands by you during incident response.
A cybersecurity incident often gets hectic, and nerves are frayed. We help you handle the incident and strengthen your cybersecurity.
The most important principle: “Stay calm.”
The incident response process
in five steps.
Detection and reporting
The process starts as soon as a security incident is detected. Either our monitoring systems or you report it.
Initial analysis and removing the intruder
We analyze logs and systems, determine the scope of the incident and identify the intruder. The priority in this phase is to remove the intruder from your systems as quickly as possible.
In-depth analysis and closing the gaps
Once the intruder is out, we analyze in more depth. We investigate how they got into your systems and which vulnerabilities they exploited. We then work to close these gaps and prevent similar attacks in the future.
Reporting and compliance
We help you prepare reports for government bodies such as data protection supervisory authorities or public prosecutors. We make sure that all required information is accurate and complete. This way you meet the compliance requirements.
Recovery and prevention
Finally, we help you return to normal operations and put additional security measures in place. This makes your systems more resilient against future attacks and limits the damage of any further incidents.
Just as important as
the technology.
Stakeholders:
- ▸ Employees
- ▸ Business partners
- ▸ Cyber insurance
- ▸ Customers
- ▸ Supervisory authorities (BSI)
- ▸ Law enforcement (police, public prosecutor's office)
Throughout the process, you need to communicate clearly with all stakeholders. Timely communication is just as important as the technical countermeasures. It may even be required by law.
Your business partners, for example, need to know early how your systems are affected. Only then can they check and protect their own systems in time. Your customers may be affected too, if they depend on your services or face production outages because of a disrupted supply chain.
Our security experts help you inform people openly and keep the damage low.
What else helps.
Penetration testing
We simulate attacks on your IT infrastructure and find vulnerabilities before real attackers do.
Mobile forensics
We recover digital traces from smartphones, tablets and IoT devices and analyze them for use in court.
Digital forensics
We reconstruct incidents, preserve evidence, determine the time of the offense and document everything for use in court.
The best incident is the one
that never happens.
Incident response limits damage. Argus24 prevents it, with continuous security testing around the clock.
With identity posture analysis, honeypot detection and four orchestrated scan engines, we detect vulnerabilities and active abuse attempts before they turn into emergencies.
