Incident Response & Digital Forensics

When a breach happens, minutes matter. Rapid containment, forensic investigation, and clean recovery.

Overview

Ransomware, business email compromise, insider misuse, defaced systems — when an incident hits, the first hours decide how bad it gets. Cyferra's responders help you contain the threat, preserve evidence, understand what happened, and recover with confidence.

We also work with you before anything goes wrong: building incident response plans, running tabletop exercises, and putting retainer arrangements in place so that when you call, we already know your environment.

Our approach

  1. 1

    Triage & scoping

    We rapidly establish what is affected, what the attacker can still reach, and what must be protected first.

  2. 2

    Containment

    Compromised accounts, hosts, and access paths are isolated to stop the incident spreading — without destroying evidence.

  3. 3

    Investigation & forensics

    Forensic analysis of endpoints, logs, and identity data reconstructs the attack timeline and root cause.

  4. 4

    Eradication & recovery

    Attacker persistence is removed and systems are restored in a verified-clean state, in priority order for the business.

  5. 5

    Post-incident review

    You receive a full report with the timeline, root cause, and hardening actions — written to support regulator and board reporting.

FAQ

Common questions

How fast can you respond to an active incident?

Retainer clients get priority SLAs with remote response typically beginning within hours. For new clients we mobilise as fast as scoping and access allow — call us immediately and we will triage on the first call.

Should we pay a ransomware demand?

Payment is a last resort with legal, regulatory, and practical risks, and never guarantees recovery. We help you evaluate genuine recovery options first and support your legal and insurance advisers throughout.

Do we have reporting obligations in Bahrain after a breach?

Depending on your sector you may have obligations under the PDPL, CBB rules, or sector regulators. Our reporting is structured so your legal team can meet notification requirements quickly.

What is an IR retainer?

A pre-agreed arrangement covering your environment details, contacts, and response SLAs. It removes procurement delays during a crisis and typically includes readiness work such as tabletop exercises.
