Cloud Security Incident Response

Security incident response helps companies during and after security breaches.

You provide rapid response to contain incidents, investigate what happened through forensics, identify compromised systems and data, guide remediation, and help prevent recurrence.

Incident response can be retainer-based ($2,000-$10,000 monthly for on-call access) or emergency engagement ($10,000-$100,000+ for major incidents).

Services include incident triage and containment, forensic investigation, threat analysis, communication planning, remediation guidance, and post-incident security hardening.

Target clients include companies with valuable data, businesses in targeted industries, organizations with compliance reporting requirements, and any company wanting incident response insurance.

Success requires security expertise, forensic investigation skills, ability to work under extreme pressure, clear communication during crises, and knowledge of cloud logging and monitoring.

Most incident responders have extensive security backgrounds and hold certifications like GCIH or GCFA.

The work is stressful but rewarding when helping companies through their worst days.
