Forensic Readiness Assessment

Would you be able to reconstruct what happened in your environment after a cyberattack?

A successful forensic investigation does not start after a security incident. What matters is whether the necessary data has already been collected, retained for a sufficient period of time, and logged at the right places.

With the QUIRSO Forensic Readiness Assessment, we evaluate your IT environment from an Incident Response and Digital Forensics perspective – ensuring that the necessary evidence is available when it matters and that an attack can be reliably reconstructed.

Logging & Retention

A successful forensic investigation requires the right activities to be logged and the resulting data to remain available when an incident occurs. We therefore assess both the quality of your logging configuration and the retention of the collected data.

• Assessment of relevant logging and audit configurations from a forensic perspective
• Identification of missing or insufficiently captured activities
• Review of retention periods against established best practices
• Concrete recommendations for improving logging and data retention

Identify and Close Visibility Gaps

Attackers often move across different systems and platforms. Missing telemetry at just one critical point can make parts of an attack impossible to reconstruct.

• Identification of systems with missing or insufficient visibility
• Assessment of relevant forensic data sources
• Prioritization of critical visibility gaps
• Concrete measures to improve forensic visibility

From On-Premises to Cloud & Containers

Modern IT environments are heterogeneous. Forensic readiness therefore needs to be considered across the entire relevant infrastructure rather than for individual systems in isolation.

• Traditional on-premises infrastructures
• Windows and Linux systems
• Active Directory and central infrastructure components
• Cloud environments and cloud services
• Kubernetes and container environments
• Network, security, and other relevant platforms

Your Roadmap to Better Forensic Readiness

You receive more than an assessment of your current state. Based on the identified gaps, we develop a concrete and prioritized action plan to improve your forensic readiness.

• Overview of identified logging and visibility gaps
• Assessment of existing retention configurations
• Concrete technical configuration recommendations
• Prioritization of measures based on forensic relevance
• Clear roadmap for improving your environment

Your Value

With the QUIRSO Forensic Readiness Assessment, you establish the technical foundation for an effective forensic investigation before a security incident occurs.

• Faster reconstruction of cyberattacks
• Greater visibility into attack paths and affected systems
• Fewer blind spots during Incident Response
• Better availability of relevant forensic data
• Targeted optimization of logging and retention
• Concrete action plan instead of abstract recommendations
• Greater confidence and ability to respond when an incident occurs
