Why DFIR matters
Many organizations do not have the specialist skills, tools or capacity to respond quickly and effectively during a cyberattack or data breach. DFIR combines incident response and forensic investigation to identify the attack, limit its scope, understand root cause and support remediation.
DFIR support is critical when the organization needs to contain an active threat, preserve evidence, understand business impact and communicate clearly with leadership, insurers, legal teams and regulators.
