How it works

A practical incident response process for small businesses

Every incident is different, but the goals are the same: stop the damage, preserve what matters, and restore operations safely.

1) Triage & scope

We quickly assess what happened, what systems are impacted, and what “normal” should look like—so you can make decisions based on facts, not fear.

2) Containment

We isolate affected accounts/devices, reset access where needed, and reduce attacker persistence while keeping business disruption as low as possible.

3) Eradication & hardening

We remove malicious access paths, close gaps (patching, MFA, password resets), and improve visibility so the issue doesn’t repeat.

4) Recovery & validation

We help restore services, validate integrity, and confirm that access is secured—then document what changed and what to monitor next.
