Containment within hours. Eviction within days. Forensic reconstruction admissible in any jurisdiction.
Versus DFIR is the team you call when an active incident has crossed the threshold from "alert" to "crisis." We mobilize within 15 minutes of hotline contact, deploy under signed engagement letter and outside counsel privilege, and have operators and forensic infrastructure on the wire within the hour.
Our methodology blends technical containment with operational discipline: we coordinate with your legal counsel, breach coach, cyber insurer, and regulators in parallel — producing the artifacts each stakeholder needs without your team duplicating work in the worst possible week.
Every action is documented under chain-of-custody from minute one. Every artifact is admissible. Every decision is defensible. That is the bar.
Each engagement is led by senior operators. Scope is shaped to your environment, not pulled from a template.
Active threat eviction across endpoint, identity, cloud, and network. Pre-authorized response so we act, not wait.
Memory, disk, cloud-native, and SaaS-native acquisition with verifiable chain of custody.
Static and dynamic analysis of implants, droppers, and tooling — with IOCs and YARA delivered same-day.
Initial-access vector, lateral movement, persistence, and exfiltration timeline reconstructed and documented.
Forensic findings packaged for regulators, customers, and legal — under attorney-client privilege.
Expert reports, depositions, and courtroom testimony if your incident moves to litigation.
A consistent rhythm whether the engagement is a single audit or a multi-quarter program.
Hotline triage in 15 min. Engagement letter, scope, and operators stood up within the hour.
Active threat eviction, identity reset, network segmentation. Stop the bleeding before forensics begins.
Telemetry collection, malware analysis, timeline reconstruction. Privileged forensic record built in parallel.
Rebuild authority, validate eradication, deliver post-incident report and detection content for your team.
If yours isn’t here, the hotline and engagement intake both reach a senior partner.
For retainer clients, 15 minutes to triage and 60 minutes to engagement letter. For first-time clients, the same — assuming counsel is available to sign. We have legal templates and operators on rotation 24/7/365.
Yes — by default. We engage through your outside counsel so investigation findings are protected work product. If you do not have breach counsel, we can introduce you to firms we work with regularly.
We frequently work alongside other DFIR firms as the deeper-bench second responder, the malware reverse-engineering specialist, or the cross-border arm of an investigation. We also stand alone.
Yes. We are on most major cyber-insurance panels and we know the carrier playbooks. We coordinate notification, scope approval, and final reporting directly with the carrier and breach coach.
A privileged forensic investigation report, root-cause analysis, IOC and YARA package, detection content for your SIEM/EDR, and a hardening roadmap. If litigation follows, we deliver an expert report and stand behind it.
DFIR engagements frequently sit alongside these capabilities. The same operating doctrine, the same partners.
Most engagements begin with a 30-minute scoping call. We’ll tell you within that call whether we’re the right fit.
