Incident Response
Digital Forensics
When every second counts, HyperCrackers helps you detect, contain, and recover from cyber incidents — fast.
In today’s digital world, cyber incidents are inevitable — but the impact they cause doesn’t have to be catastrophic. Whether it’s a ransomware attack, data breach, insider threat, or cloud compromise, your ability to respond quickly and effectively determines how much damage you can prevent.
At HyperCrackers, we specialize in Incident Response (IR) — helping organizations detect, contain, eradicate, and recover from cybersecurity incidents with precision, speed, and minimal disruption.
Our Incident Response team is available 24/7, combining advanced digital forensics, threat intelligence, and years of real-world experience responding to breaches across industries including finance, healthcare, government, and e-commerce.
When your business faces an active cyber threat, HyperCrackers becomes your first line of defense.
Why Incident Response Matters
A cyber incident isn’t just a technical event — it’s a business crisis.
Downtime costs money. Data loss erodes trust. Regulatory violations can lead to massive fines and reputational damage.
According to industry studies, the average time to contain a breach is over 80 days — and every hour of delay increases costs and impact.
HyperCrackers’ Incident Response Service reduces that time from weeks to hours by:
Deploying expert responders rapidly,
Containing active threats,
Preserving forensic evidence,
Restoring business operations securely, and
Helping you emerge stronger and more resilient.
Who Needs Incident Response Services
Our Incident Response solutions are designed for:
Organizations under active attack (ransomware, phishing, insider compromise, or data exfiltration).
Companies without a dedicated SOC or IR team that need immediate expertise.
Enterprises seeking IR retainers for guaranteed response availability.
Regulated industries (finance, healthcare, government, SaaS) requiring documented IR plans and post-breach reporting.
CISOs and IT leaders wanting to test or strengthen existing incident response capabilities.
No matter your industry or size, if you store sensitive data or depend on digital operations, you need a tested incident response plan — and a partner ready to execute it.

Types of Incidents We Handle
Ransomware attacks: Containment, negotiation assistance, decryption support, and recovery.
Data breaches: Investigation, data loss assessment, and compliance-ready reporting.
Insider threats: Behavioral forensics, access misuse detection, and HR/legal coordination.
Cloud compromises: IAM abuse, misconfigurations, API exploitation, and cross-account movement.
Phishing and credential theft: Campaign analysis, email header tracing, and mailbox forensics.
Web application intrusions: Exploit detection, web server log analysis, and malicious code removal.

What to Expect
HyperCrackers follows a proven and transparent process aligned with NIST 800-61, ISO 27035, and SANS IR frameworks.
1. Preparation & Readiness
Before incidents occur, we work with your teams to: Develop or refine your incident response plan, Define communication protocols, Establish response roles, Set up secure evidence handling and triage procedures. We can also perform tabletop exercises and readiness assessments to ensure you’re IR-ready.
2. Identification & Detection
When an incident occurs, our responders immediately: Identify indicators of compromise (IOCs), Determine the type and scope of attack, Analyze system logs, memory, and network traffic to confirm impact. We quickly differentiate real threats from false alarms — minimizing unnecessary panic or downtime.
3. Containment
Once confirmed, we isolate affected systems to stop the spread of malicious activity. Containment may include: Disabling compromised accounts, Blocking malicious IPs or domains, Segregating infected hosts, Preserving volatile data for forensic analysis. Our containment strategy ensures minimal business disruption while stopping the attacker’s movement.
4. Eradication & Forensic Investigation
We remove malware, backdoors, or persistence mechanisms from your environment. Our forensics team investigates how the breach occurred, what was accessed, and whether data was exfiltrated. We document every step, maintaining chain-of-custody for legal defensibility.
5. Recovery & Restoration
5. Recovery & Restoration Once your environment is clean, we help you safely restore systems and services — ensuring no residual threats remain. We validate backups, reimage infected systems, and assist in bringing critical applications back online securely.
6. Post-Incident Review & Hardening
After the crisis, we debrief with your team to review: Root cause analysis, Detection gaps, Response timelines, Lessons learned, and Recommended long-term improvements. We can also perform follow-up Purple Teaming or Detection Engineering exercises to test and validate new defenses.
