CSIRT as a Service and Rapid Response

CSIRT Services – your incident response team

It is impossible to prevent serious security incidents 100% of the time.

Which makes it all the more important to act quickly and stop any attacks when such an incident occurs. Complex IT infrastructures and a shortage of IT security specialists make it difficult to create an in-house cybersecurity incident response team (CSIRT), which can compromise cyberdefence.

Incident response team for combating cyberattacks

Not all companies have the necessary expertise and qualified personnel to set up their own incident response team. This is where CSIRT as a Service and Rapid Response come in.

Fast response and business continuity are paramount in an acute attack. However, the impact of a cyberattack is often felt beyond the incident itself. Any data breaches must be reported and communicated to customers. And an evidence-gathering forensic investigation will be required to be able to press charges against the attackers.

Calls are free. Call outs are charged at a flat rate plus costs. This offer is exclusively available to companies in Switzerland.

When is it the right solution?

When dealing with a successful cyber attack, business continuity is paramount. You have to guarantee an appropriate incident response whatever your cost pressures or shortage of skills. Outsourcing IT security services could be an option worth considering.

It might not make financial sense for you to establish an in-house CSIRT team working around the clock to cover the entire incident response process. But you still need to meet the defined security standard and safeguard business continuity in the event of a cyber attack. At the same time, hybrid and multi-cloud approaches are making infrastructures increasingly complex and increasing the need for effective cyber defence.

  • Professional CSIRT services at predictable costs
  • Experienced team of incident response experts
