NormCyber has introduced its latest service offering: the Incident Response Readiness Assessment.
This consultative service provides customers with the means to practice and strengthen their response strategies in the event of a cyber-attack, thereby minimising business impact and hastening recovery.
In light of a significant increase in cyber-incidents — rising by 645 in 2023 compared to the previous year— organisations are increasingly recognising the need to bolster their vigilance and response strategies.
The company’s new service addresses this critical need by identifying gaps in organisations’ cyber-incident response plans and refining processes, roles and responsibilities to better prepare for potential cyber-incidents.
NormCyber’s assessment
- Scoping: Selection of two specific attack scenarios with the involvement of relevant stakeholders
- Team of experts: NormCyber’s experts introduce the scenarios and facilitate discussions
- Assessment: Analysis of the scenarios and potential response strategies, pinpointing problem areas within the organisation’s current incident response plan
- Action plan: Development of a comprehensive action plan detailing specific steps for improvement, serving as a roadmap for the organisation’s future incident readiness
Pete Bowers, COO, NormCyber emphasised: “When it comes to cyber incidents, perception often differs from reality.
“Organisations may think they’re prepared, but they won’t know until a breach actually happens.”
“Minimise impact and recover”
Bowers added: “Our Incident Response Readiness Assessment Service has been developed to help businesses minimise impact and recover as quickly as possible.
“It acts like a fire drill, bringing these scenarios to life and allowing organisations to rehearse and refine their responses to threats, ensuring a robust response strategy in the event of a breach.”
NormCyber’s Incident Response Readiness Assessment is designed to help organisations fortify their cybersecurity posture and respond effectively to cyber-threats.
