Cyber Incident Preparedness
Understanding what happens during a cyber incident—and knowing you're protected—makes all the difference.
Get Protected TodayThe average cost of a data breach is $4.88M. 60% of small businesses close within 6 months of a cyber attack.
Incident response is the organized approach to addressing and managing the aftermath of a security breach or cyberattack. BRITECITY's incident response team helps Orange County businesses contain threats, investigate breaches, and restore operations with minimal downtime.
Here's what actually happens when a cyber attack hits your business—and who gets involved.
Ransomware encrypts your files, a data breach is discovered, or systems go down. Your business operations grind to a halt.
BRITECITY's MDR team is alerted immediately. We begin containment, preserve evidence, and assess the scope of the attack.
Your cyber insurance carrier is notified. They assign a breach coach, forensic investigators, and legal counsel to your case.
Forensic teams determine what happened. Legal teams assess notification requirements. Systems are cleaned and restored.
If required, affected parties are notified. Regulatory filings are submitted. Credit monitoring may be offered to victims.
Operations resume. Lessons learned are implemented. Security posture is strengthened. Insurance claims are settled.
Attackers can exfiltrate data, encrypt systems, and spread laterally within minutes. Fast containment limits the blast radius and reduces recovery costs.
Forensic evidence degrades quickly. Immediate response preserves logs, memory artifacts, and attack indicators needed for investigation and legal proceedings.
Many regulations require breach notification within 72 hours. Quick detection and response ensures you meet legal deadlines and avoid penalties.
The average business interruption from a cyber attack costs $1.3M. Rapid response minimizes downtime and gets your operations back online faster.
