Incident response for when minutes matter.
Rapid detection, containment, and recovery from cybersecurity incidents, with 24/7 expert support and forensically sound post-incident analysis.

From first alert to lessons learned.
A disciplined lifecycle keeps a crisis from becoming a catastrophe. Here's how we move an incident from detection to full recovery, and out the other side stronger.
- 01
Detect
Spot the signal in the noise
- 02
Triage
Scope and prioritize the threat
- 03
Contain
Stop the spread, fast
- 04
Eradicate
Remove the foothold for good
- 05
Recover
Restore operations safely
- 06
Review
Analyze, harden, prevent recurrence
Ready before it hits. There when it does.
Incident readiness
Response plans, roles, and team training so that when an incident hits, everyone already knows their move.
Learn more→Policies & playbooks
Detailed, tailored playbooks for the threats you actually face, ransomware, BEC, data loss, and more.
Learn more→Tabletop exercises
Realistic simulations that pressure-test your team's coordination and decision-making before it's real.
Learn more→Managed incident response
A dedicated team on call 24/7, ready to detect, contain, and recover the moment an incident is declared, with forensics and post-incident analysis built in.
The first hour decides the outcome.
The longer an attacker dwells, the more it costs, in data, downtime, and dollars. Our team engages fast and contains faster, cutting the window between detection and control from days to minutes.
Evidence that holds up later.
When the dust settles, you'll need answers that stand up to legal, your cyber-insurer, and regulators. We preserve a clean chain of custody and reconstruct exactly what happened, so the story is provable, not guessed.

Calm, proven, and accountable.
Methodical under pressure
An incident is chaos. Our process isn't. We run a calm, repeatable playbook so decisions get made fast and nothing critical slips.
Frameworks that hold up
We work to NIST 800-61 and the SANS lifecycle, the same standards your auditors, regulators, and cyber-insurer expect to see.
Clear communication
Executives, legal, and stakeholders get plain-language updates throughout, so the business can make decisions while we handle the technical fight.
Built to learn
Every engagement ends in a post-incident review that hardens your environment, so the same thing can't happen twice.
Run the incident where your team works.
Every incident is a live case in Sable: the timeline is logged automatically, evidence is preserved, containment and remediation tasks are assigned to owners, and stakeholders see status in real time, not a PDF after the fact.

Common questions
- What is incident response?
- Incident response is the disciplined process of handling a security incident from first alert to full recovery: detect the signal, triage and scope it, contain the spread, eradicate the attacker's foothold, restore operations safely, and review what happened so it does not recur. Done properly it is the difference between a contained event and a business-wide crisis.
- What should I do first if I think we have been breached?
- Call for help before you start changing things. The instinct to wipe and rebuild the affected machine destroys the evidence needed to work out how the attacker got in, what else they touched, and whether they still have access. Preserve the systems, restrict further access if you safely can, and engage responders. SubRosa's median time to engage is under 15 minutes, 24/7.
- What is an incident response plan and do we need one?
- An incident response plan documents who does what when an incident is declared: roles, decision authority, escalation paths, communications, and the technical steps for the threats you actually face. You need one because the middle of a ransomware event is the worst possible time to be deciding who can authorize taking production offline. Most frameworks and cyber insurers require a documented plan.
- How do you test an incident response plan?
- With tabletop exercises: a realistic scenario run against your actual team, pressure-testing coordination and decision-making rather than the document. They reliably surface the gaps that matter, which are usually about authority and communication rather than technology, and they do it while the stakes are still hypothetical.
- Do you provide digital forensics after an incident?
- Yes. Forensically sound post-incident analysis is part of the engagement: establishing the initial access vector, the attacker's activity and dwell time, and what data was actually accessed. That work supports insurance claims, regulatory notification, and legal proceedings, all of which require evidence handled to a standard that survives scrutiny.
