Compromise Assessment

A focused investigation to determine whether attackers are already inside your environment, what they accessed, and what to do next.

Overview

Many intrusions go unnoticed for months. A compromise assessment assumes the worst and goes looking: it searches your endpoints, identities, network and logs for traces of attackers, and tells you with evidence whether your environment is clean.

It is the right step when something feels wrong, when a trusted partner has been breached, or when you need assurance before a major change.

What you get

  • A clear answer, backed by evidence, on whether your environment shows signs of compromise
  • If an intrusion is found, its scope, timeline and affected systems
  • Immediate containment recommendations and longer-term hardening steps
  • Detection gaps that allowed the activity to go unnoticed

What we cover

  • Endpoints and servers
  • Active Directory and cloud identities
  • Network traffic and perimeter logs
  • Email and collaboration platforms
  • Security tool logs and SIEM data

How we work

  1. Rapid scoping

    We agree priorities, sensitive systems and communication channels, often within the same day for urgent cases.

  2. Data collection

    We deploy lightweight collection tools and gather logs and forensic artifacts with minimal disruption.

  3. Threat hunting

    Our analysts hunt for attacker techniques mapped to MITRE ATT&CK, enriched with threat intelligence and known indicators of compromise.

  4. Analysis and triage

    We investigate suspicious activity, separate real threats from benign anomalies and reconstruct any attack timeline.

  5. Reporting

    We present findings, containment steps and detection improvements to your technical and leadership teams.

Deliverables

  • Compromise assessment report with an evidence-based verdict
  • Timeline and scope of any confirmed intrusion
  • Indicators of compromise found in your environment
  • Containment and remediation recommendations
  • Detection improvement recommendations

Questions buyers ask

When should we request a compromise assessment?

When you see suspicious activity, after a breach at a partner or supplier, before a merger or major system change, after a new CISO takes over, or periodically for high-value environments.

  • EDR / XDR

    Detection and response across endpoints, identities, email and cloud in one platform, designed, deployed and tuned for your environment.
