Incident Response

When a real intrusion hits, the response has to hold up to scrutiny.

During a live intrusion, the organizations that recover well are the ones that move with clear roles, documented decisions, and defensible evidence, because regulators, courts, insurers, and customers will all reread the work later. Maverc brings experienced incident responders, a named incident commander, and forensic rigor that holds up everywhere it has to.

Proof

Available on retainer with guaranteed response SLAs.

Overview

What this engagement looks like

Incident Response — visual

Ransomware, business email compromise, supply chain attacks, nation-state intrusions, the playbook differs, but the principle is the same: contain quickly, eradicate cleanly, recover deliberately, and document everything. Our IR team works in your environment with chain-of-custody forensics, regulatory and insurance coordination, and a retainer model that guarantees a fast response when every minute counts.

Outcomes you'll see

  • Faster containment, fewer encrypted assets, lower business impact
  • Defensible evidence for legal, regulatory, and insurance proceedings
  • Concrete hardening plan so the same intrusion can't happen twice
  • Documented timeline from first alert to full recovery

Deep Dive

Where we go further

Ransomware: contain hours, not days

We've responded to dozens of ransomware events, from initial Cobalt Strike beacons to fully encrypted estates. We isolate, evict, restore from clean backups when possible, coordinate negotiation when not, and harden against re-entry.

Business Email Compromise (BEC)

BEC incidents move fast and bleed money. We freeze attacker access in Microsoft 365 / Google Workspace, claw back fraudulent transactions where possible, coordinate with bank fraud teams, and harden against repeat compromise.

Insurance and legal coordination

We're a panel-friendly IR firm. Our reports satisfy insurance carriers, our forensics hold up in litigation, and we coordinate cleanly with your breach counsel from the first call.

FAQ

Common questions

Do we need a retainer to call you?

No, but retainer customers get guaranteed response SLAs and pre-negotiated rates. Non-retainer engagements are best-effort.

Do you negotiate with ransomware operators?

We provide guidance and connect you with vetted negotiators. We never recommend payment lightly and always coordinate with legal and insurance.

Will the report hold up with regulators and insurers?

Yes. Our reports follow chain-of-custody discipline and have been used in regulatory proceedings, litigation, and insurance claims.
