Incident Response
Whether the attacks enter networks through a clicked phishing attempt, a default credential, or an open cloud storage container, the results can be devastating. Funds can go missing, operations can be disrupted, organizations can be held hostage in their systems and critical data can be leaked.
Apollo’s strategic approach begins with designing the right testing program to meet your unique compliance, control efficacy, or system integrity goals. Our team ensures the necessary drivers are aligned to meet leadership expectations, setting priorities to meet business needs. Our testing teams test every kind of technology, including computing, industrial control, the Internet of Things and physical security systems.
Having a dedicated internal incident response team is of ten out of reach for all but the largest organizations. To respond to a major incident, the best practice is to leverage partners, such as Apollo, to achieve a layered and collaborative capability that combines internal capabilities with scalable external providers to respond to a significant incident.
Industry experts reveal that hackers' average dwell time in company networks typically exceeds 100 days. The longer an adversary goes unchecked within your network, the more costly and impactful the incident is likely to be.
Of ten security incidents are minor or the full extent is undiscovered during the incident's early stages. Speed is critical in cybersecurity incidents, whether preventing the attacker's movement around the network or alerting government authorities for help and getting access to time limited government resources.
Cyber incident response is a highly specialized area of endeavor. Highly trained, domain-specific experts work to track and discover unauthorized user behavior, respond to active cyber attacks, recover appropriately and maintain evidence.
Apollo provides experienced incident commanders to minimize the effects and represent the company's interests to drive the appropriate resolution. While Apollo can provide skilled third-par ty services to help with scale and global issues, the management of the stakeholders - legal, insurance, law enforcement- technical and even the attackers - is the most crucial role in any incident.
