Compromise Assessment

Compromise Assessment

For when you suspect you are already breached but cannot yet call it an incident.

Overview

There is a gap between a bad feeling and a declared incident, and organisations often sit in it for weeks. A compromise assessment is a time-boxed, discreet hunt for evidence of existing or historic intrusion across your endpoints, identity and network telemetry. It answers a narrow question honestly: is there evidence of compromise, and if so what is the scope. It also produces a telemetry gap list, because the places we could not look are usually the finding that matters most.

What you get

Included in this service

01

Threat hunting across your estate

Hypothesis-led hunting across endpoint, identity, email and network telemetry for indicators of current or past intrusion.

02

Identity and persistence review

We look for the things attackers leave behind: rogue accounts, mailbox rules, scheduled tasks, OAuth grants and token abuse.

03

Telemetry gap analysis

An honest map of where you have no visibility, because those are the places an intrusion could hide from this assessment too.

04

A clear escalation path

If we find an active intrusion we move straight into incident response with your authorisation, rather than finishing the report first.

What you walk away with
01Findings report stating clearly whether evidence of compromise was found
02Scope and timeline of any intrusion identified
03Indicators of compromise and affected asset list
04Telemetry and logging gap analysis
05Prioritised recommendations, including what to do immediately
How we engage

A clear path from problem to outcome

The same disciplined cycle every time, so you always know what is happening next.

01
01

Scope discreetly

We agree the estate, the telemetry available and who inside your organisation knows the assessment is happening.

02
02

Collect

We gather endpoint, identity, email and network telemetry, working with what you already have wherever possible.

03
03

Hunt

Hypothesis-led hunting for known techniques and anomalies, rather than a signature sweep.

04
04

Report or escalate

If nothing is found you get a clear negative finding and the gap list. If something is found we escalate to incident response immediately.
