Incident Response

We help companies around the world take back control of their systems and restore normal business operations.

Ransomware Response

Following a ransomware attack, we utilize industry-specific data and insights to contain threats and minimize downtime – restoring business operations faster than the industry average.

Our Process

1

Breach Assessment

We engage remotely within minutes to scope the incident, assess the damage, and contain the threat.

2

Recovery Plan

Within 24 hours, we join key stakeholders onsite to gather more details on the environment and affected systems and begin to create a customized recovery plan.

3

Negotiation

Our experienced team of negotiators will help lead and support you through the negotiation process — always in compliance with applicable sanctions programs and regulations, and only if payment is the sole option.

4

Post-response Analysis

To help clients understand the attack lifecycle, we perform forensic analysis to identify the threat actor’s trail. We also assist with system restoration, data recovery, and endpoint detection and response (EDR) deployment for protection against future attacks.

What to Expect

Quick Response

We contain threats within minutes,
restore operations within days.

Tailored Service

No client is the same — we develop customized plans to fit each client’s unique needs.

Cost Savings

We help minimize business downtime and brand impact and, as needed, negotiate to potentially reduce ransom demands and obtain decryptors.

Why Arete Advisors®

Arete manages the entire ransomware process. We quickly contain threats, harden endpoints to diminish damage, and leverage proprietary data analytics to help you determine if ransom payment is truly the only option. If so, we work to lower ransom demands — always in compliance with applicable sanctions programs regulations.
