Ransomware Response
Contain the blast radius, recover the business, avoid paying
What this engagement covers
The service
Dedicated ransomware response - containment, forensics, decryption support, negotiation guidance, and recovery. We have seen every variant; we know what works and what makes it worse.
What we test
Full ransomware engagement lifecycle: intrusion vector identification, lateral movement reconstruction, payload analysis, data exfil scoping, decryptor validation, and recovery verification.
How we run it
Parallel workstreams - one team contains, another investigates, a third supports recovery. We coordinate with your insurer, counsel, and executive team. We do not handle payment; we partner with specialist negotiators when one is needed.
Emergency containment
Forensic triage and evidence preservation
Intrusion timeline reconstruction
Data exfil assessment
Eradication and hardening
Recovery validation
Post-incident reporting
What you receive
Findings land in your tracker as you go, not only in a PDF at the end. Retest is in scope, not a change order.
- Rapid containment of active encryption
- Intrusion vector and scope determination
- Data exfiltration assessment
- Coordinated recovery plan
- Decryptor validation (when available)
- Full post-incident report
- Hardening recommendations to prevent recurrence
What we usually find
The issues this engagement surfaces most often. Yours will differ, but this is the shape of it.
Who this is for
Findings are mapped to HIPAA, PCI-DSS, SOC 2, NIST CSF, GDPR, so the report drops into an audit package rather than needing to be translated first. If you need the readiness work behind one of those, that is a separate engagement.
Scope it in one call
Tell us what is in scope and we come back with a fixed price and a start date. No discovery-call maze, no hourly estimate that moves.
