Cyber Incident Response Planning

Prepare for the worst, relax for the best!

Be prepared for a cyber attack!

Protect your business with a solid Cyber Incident Response Plan (CIRP)

A cyber attack is not a question of if, but when. Cybercriminals are getting smarter and more targeted. Without a well-thought-out Cyber Incident Response Plan (CIRP), your business is at risk of severe damage, data loss and financial losses. We help you with a concrete and effective Cyber IRP strategy that protects your business and ensures a rapid and organized response to incidents.

A Cyber Incident Response Plan (CIRP) is a detailed approach that prepares your company for cyber incidents so you can act quickly and efficiently. The CIRP ensures that you:

✅ Minimizing the impact of an attack

✅ Quickly determine the cause and scope of the incident

✅ Take the right measures to prevent further damage

✅ Restore your systems safely and in a controlled manner

A good IRP makes the difference between a short-term disruption and a long-term business crisis.

Why do you need it?

Any business - no matter how small or BIG - can become a victim of cybercrime. With a Cyber incident response plan, you are better prepared and can take targeted actions that reduce the likelihood of a cyber incident and limit the damage in the event of an incident.

✅ Regulations (such as the NIS2 directive) require a thorough response strategy.

We beveiligen ons maximaal tegen brand omdat het moet. Het wordt tijd dat we ditzelfde doen voor de data waarover je beschikt. De genomen cybersecuritymaatregelen schieten helaas bij veel organisaties nog te kort. Kortom: we hebben nog een lange weg te gaan om op hetzelfde beschermingsniveau als voor een brand te komen.

Prevent your organization from “stunned looking into the headlights of the car” when a cyber incident happens, but jump into action mode!

Our solution: your customized Cyber Incident Response Plan

When you hire us to create an Incident Response Plan, together we go through six crucial phases:

  1. Preparation
    Analyze the organization, identify vulnerabilities and draft preventive measures. This includes training employees, setting up monitoring tools and establishing clear communication strategies.
  2. Identification
    When a cyber incident occurs, it is crucial to detect it quickly. Implementing tools and processes that recognize suspicious activity and initiate immediate action is essential.
  3. Containment
    Stopping the attack before the damage spreads. Isolate infected systems and protect critical data from further compromise.
  4. Elimination
    After the threat is identified and contained, the malicious software should be removed and the attackers' access points blocked.
  5. Recovery
    Systems should be safely restored, backups restored and normal business operations resumed without further risk.
  6. Evaluation & Improvement
    After an incident, lessons should be learned from the experience and optimization of the IRP can take place to protect the organization even better against future attacks.
