REDUCE THE COST OF CYBER ATTACKS

CYBER INCIDENT RESPONSE PLANNING SERVICES

Whilst most organisations already have a Cyber Incident Response Plan (CIRP), many might not truly operationalise them potentially due to inadequate design, implementation, or both. Perhaps the plan is not well orchestrated across business units or the procedures are not practiced enough by the response team – potentially meaning the decision-making is cumbersome and inconsistent.

When discovering and responding to an incident, any delay could be very costly. Quick discovery and an efficient response to an attack on your network can save an untold amount of time, money and staff hours. Acora offer a Cyber Incident Response Planning Service to help optimise your incident response plan, coordinate an incident response team and determine the source, cause and extent of a computer security breach quickly.

Save costs, time and staff hours

6 STEPS TO AN EFFECTIVE CIRP

1.  Preparation

Are suitable defences in place, including tools, teams and training for incidents before they happen?

2. Detection & Identification

Are incidents being identified thoroughly? Going through the IR process only to find a false alarm is no fun.

3. Containment

Incidents need to be contained immediately to prevent/reduce possible collateral damage.

4. Eradication

Get rid of the malicious code, unauthorised account, or bad employee that caused the incident.

5. Recovery

Ensure systems meet company standards or baselines before returning to service, and continue to monitor them for any aberrant behaviour to be sure that the incident has been fully resolved.

6. Lessons Learned

Reports should detail what happened, why it happened, what could have prevented it, and what you’ll be doing to prevent it from happening again. A buy-in must be obtained for the changes needed to prevent similar incidents in the future.

Key CIRP Benefits

  • Minimise downtime & financial losses
  • Quickly assess the impact of cyber threats & take corrective measures
  • Identify the root cause of an attack & prevent similar incidents in future
  • Restore normal operations & protect data from further loss or misuse
The Level of Damage is proportional to Duration

REDUCE THE TIME TO DISCOVER

 

Why Effective Cyber Incident Response Planning is Essential

Effective cyber incident response planning (CIRP) reduces the time to discover (TTD) which expedites containment.

Any unnecessary containment delays in an incident response will result in:

1. More confidential files and systems identified and compromised

2. More customer records, employee files and IP exfiltrated

3. More sales & work hours lost when systems are offline/ disabled

4. More systems need to be cleaned and restored to operation

Effective cyber incident response planning (cirp) reduces the time to discover (ttd) which expedites containment.
