Case Study: a FTSE 100 company strengthens cyber resilience with NCC Group incident response

FTSE 100 company removes attackers and boosts security posture with NCC Group

A leading FTSE 100 company enlisted NCC Group’s Cyber Incident Response Team (CIRT) service after suffering a large-scale security incident from advanced attackers. The organization faced significant challenges in performing breach containment due to the complexity of its IT estate and a lack of internal resources and advanced security knowledge to keep pace with escalating cyber threats.

NCC Group’s solution involved its Digital Forensics and Incident Response (DFIR) experts and its Security Improvement and Remediation (SIR) team to contain the breach, eradicate the attackers, and implement critical security improvements. The result was a rapidly enhanced security posture that fully removed the threat and provided the organization with a more strategic direction for long-term monitoring, significantly reducing its future risk exposure. NCC Group accounted for the remediation of a third of the identified vulnerabilities during the engagement.
