Digital forensics and incident response (DFIR) is a set of security policies and procedures put in place to handle cyber attacks when they happen. Forensic IT services help to identify and mitigate such attacks so that malicious actors do not gain access to your internal and external networks, databases, and websites.
In this way, sensitive information and customer personal data will not be compromised. DFIR also aims to identify how systems were breached and to attempt to put measures in place to protect your organisations from potential cyber attacks.
Digital forensics and incident response (DFIR) involves 4 steps: assessing damage, investigating, containing & remediating, and reviewing & strengthening.
During the first stage of assessing damage, all evidence is identified, collated and properly stored. This makes the second stage – of investigating data – possible to be carried out. Here, data is analysed, digital forensics investigators will attempt to understand how security defences were breached and conclusions are drawn.
In the third stage, an incident response plan, a course of action, is recommended. This is where the type of tools, procedures and resources required are detailed with the aim of identifying and eliminating cyber threats and to prevent any further damage. In the last stage of reviewing and strengthening, the IR team figures out how to ensure similar attacks are prevented from happening again.
