Organisations rarely have adequate internal
resources to respond adequately to major computer security
incidents.
Responding to Information Security Incidents
When an incident is discovered, the full
extent of the event is rarely obvious. It is essential to
ensure that your response is well-organised, technically appropriate
and fully documented. If evidence is not properly collected
and preserved at an early stage, this may severely limit your
options at a later stage.
Many organisations discover that, even though
they find that their systems have been hacked or that an employee
has breached their security rules, they are unable to take
legal or disciplinary action because they have not collected
the hard evidence required by prosecutors and employment legislation.
How Can We Help?
We can help you by managing your response
to any security incident, worldwide. Our CISSP-qualified
consultants can provide the experience and manpower which
may not be available within your organisation to:
- investigate the incident and fully
assess the damage which has been caused;
- trace the culprit, inside or outside
your organisation, gathering evidence to support either
legal prosecution, or to support internal disciplinary measures;
and
- discover the methods by which they
were able to breach your security, and recommend security
improvement measures to prevent future similar incidents.
Be Prepared
to Handle Information Security Incidents
You should prepare yourself before an information
security incident occurs - we can help by creating information
security incident response procedures that will ensure that
your staff are able to identify, categorise and appropriately
escalate any information security incident, from a virus infection
to a major security intrusion.
Don't wait until an information security
incident occurs before you contact us - prepare yourself before
an emergency arises:
