Breach questions have deadlines.
Your audit trail has the answers.
Database-forensics readiness plus incident response built on your audit trail. When something happens, the question every breach-notification deadline hinges on is what was accessed, by whom, and when — we make sure you can answer it in hours, not weeks.
What you get, in writing
Every deliverable below is named in the statement of work. Nothing here is aspirational.
Forensics readiness review
We verify your audit coverage can actually answer the breach questions: retention depth, integrity protection, and coverage of privileged and application paths.
Data-layer IR runbook
A documented runbook for database incidents: who does what, which queries scope the access, and how findings feed the notification decision.
Incident response
When an incident opens, our analysts work your audit trail to scope exactly what was accessed, by whom, and when — with a written findings report.
Notification-grade reporting
Findings written to support the 72-hour GDPR decision and equivalent state and sector deadlines — precise scope, not "assume everything".
A defined path, with a defined end
Ready
Readiness review and IR runbook delivered in the first weeks of the retainer.
Retain
The retainer holds response capacity: named contacts, agreed response times, annual runbook refresh.
Respond
On an incident, we scope the data access from the audit trail and deliver the findings report at day rates.
This is for you if
- The 72-hour GDPR notification window applies to you
- Your cyber insurer is asking about database forensics capability
- There is no IR runbook for data-layer incidents today
Not sure it fits? Ask anyway — if it isn't a fit, we'll say so on the scope call.
