Digital Forensics & Incident Response

Protect against data breaches with quality DFIR

With computer systems and cloud-based networks being used to store company information, businesses are at risk of damaging data breaches from cyberattacks. These incidents continue to make headlines as even large corporations with sophisticated security fall victim to cybercriminals.

Data breaches are costly in more ways than one. Failing to protect personal information per legal guidelines such as GDPR can lead to fines and compensation payments and stall your sales as time is devoted to finding fixes. Well-publicised leaks can damage your reputation indefinitely.

An effective security incident response is essential to protecting your company against significant breaches. Identifying and closing holes quickly means minimal damage and enables you to get back on your feet as soon as possible after an attack.

Following up with thorough digital forensics, to appreciate the extent of the breach and find weaknesses in your systems that need to be bolstered, is vital. Our sophisticated systems review the incident in full so that no stone is left unturned when upgrading your cybersecurity.

What do we offer as part of an incident response plan?

Trust boxxe’s comprehensive DFIR to help you recover and rearm rapidly following a cybersecurity incident. We understand that every minute matters when there is the potential for a data leak, and our Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT) work quickly and calmly to stop the attack in its tracks and re-secure your breached systems against future assaults.

Our specialised digital forensics software collects, preserves and analyses the evidence of the attack to paint a full, detailed picture of events. We'll translate these computer-speak forensics into clear-cut reports, so you understand who attacked you, how they got in, what the extent of the damage is and how to prevent attacks in the future.

Your cyber forensic analyst can also provide the evidence you need to press charges against the criminals who targeted your business or to support a cyber insurance claim.

"This decade, we have seen a ransomware epidemic that shows no sign of slowing down. Companies of all shapes and sizes are at risk of attack, and the consequences can be severe.

Using intelligent cybersecurity solutions like digital forensics is the only way to stay ahead as attacks become increasingly advanced. Incident response strategies will be ineffective and leave you vulnerable unless guided by how and why cybercriminals target your company."

Andy Batty , Security Sales Specialist, boxxe

What our clients have to say

Discover why so many trust us for their digital safety and effective incident response when under threat of cyberattack.

“Verisec has for several years aided UK municipalities with secure logins and solutions. The opportunity to contribute to the University’s digitisation is a great success for us. The new agreement became a reality by the assistance of one of our British partners. We look forward to being able to attract more universities and institutions in the public sector, in both the UK and other countries, in the future.”

Johan Henrikson , CEO, Verisec

“I know that no matter what the challenge might be, I can go to boxxe and say, ‘I’ve got this issue here. What are your thoughts about it?’ and get a solid answer back. I’ve never had to go back and question them.”

“The installation of the Verkada camera system was simple and well supported by the team at Verkada and boxxe. Within days of installation, the cameras have proved their worth by identifying three intruders onto our site and proving the non-arrival of contractors on a day, thereby settling a dispute instantly.”

Clive Hetherington , CEO, Didcot Railway Centre

"We will likely experience a ransomware attack, and how we recover is going to be testament to our character and the controls we now have in place. Druva is a key part of that recovery plan. There are a lot of systems we could do without, but not Microsoft 365. It’s the heart of our business, and Druva ensures that data is secure so our company can continue serving our customers."

Hassan Bahrani , Head of IT, Thirteen Group

"We embarked on this partnership with boxxe based on a compelling combination of two crucial factors: A proven track record of successful project deliveries, and competitive pricing which demonstrates their commitment to delivering value without compromising on quality. Their meticulously crafted onboarding process and documentation paved the way for a seamless and timely onboarding experience, and our ambitious timescales were achieved. We eagerly anticipate forging a mutually rewarding partnership."

Matthew Sherwin , Head of IT, DeMontfort Fine Art

"Working with boxxe has been a fantastic experience, they saw my vision and brought it to life, adding their own innovative and forward-thinking ideas. It’s paved the way to Thirteen Group being Microsoft-first in our future developments."

Jayne Allport , Head of Service, Systems & Application Improvement, Thirteen Group

Digital forensics and incident response FAQs

What is the difference between EDR and DFIR?

EDR (Endpoint Detection and Response) tools can be built into your security software to flag potential attacks instantly. These automated tools are useful for identifying issues but are otherwise limited.

DFIR solutions go further. Digital forensics enables you to find the root cause of the problem following a cyberattack and establish effective system upgrades to safeguard against similar situations in the future.

What are the benefits of DFIR?

Especially if you haven't yet experienced a cyberattack, you might question the importance of digital forensics in solving security problems. However, there are many benefits to including this extra step in your incident response plan:

Understanding the why and how of a cyberattack as well as the what
Evaluating the endpoint found by cybercriminals to uncover why it was exploited
Improved solutions to reduce the chance of future cybersecurity breaches
Meeting and exceeding regulatory compliance which demands detailed reports
