Expert support in handling incidents in OT
When an attack occurs, we will provide you with immediate support from our experts to help you regain control, contain the threat and restore production as quickly as possible. Our Incident Response team is ready to support your team through the toughest of times, providing unique OT security expertise.
During an attack, your team is overloaded. Wrong decisions made under pressure can cost millions.
Detecting a security incident in your production network is the beginning of chaos. Your internal IT and OT team faces tremendous pressure. They must simultaneously fight the threat, search for its cause and communicate with management, all while every minute of downtime generates losses.
In more than 70% of cases, companies make mistakes that lead to the destruction of key evidence or reinfection.
True story: how restoring a backup too quickly doubled losses
The manufacturing plant detected ransomware on a SCADA server. The IT team, acting under time pressure, immediately restored the server from a backup from a day ago and resumed production.
Two days later, the server was encrypted again. It turned out that the IT team had only removed the symptom (encrypted files), not the cause. The attackers had been accessing the network all along through another previously compromised device, and were just waiting for the system to come back online.
During a fire, you don’t send your employees with office fire extinguishers into action – you call the fire department. In the event of a cyber attack on production, you need OT incident response specialists.
Is your team able to simultaneously put out the fire (stop the attack) and investigate (look for the cause) without making costly mistakes?
Our solution: calm, methodology and experience in the midst of a crisis
Our support service is not just additional hands on work. It’s first and foremost access to proven methodology and experience. In a moment of chaos, we put in place a proven response process that allows you to systematize your actions, make the right decisions and avoid common mistakes made under pressure.
Our approach is based on 3 pillars:
Root cause analysis
We help answer key questions: how did the attacker get in? What did he do? Does he still have access? We analyze logs and network traffic to find the source of the problem.
Support in containing the threat
We advise on how to effectively and securely isolate infected systems to prevent further spread of the attack and minimize the impact on production.
Assist in securely restoring systems
We support the process of removing malware and safely restoring systems. We verify that there are no “back doors” left in the system.
