POST-INCIDENT HARDENING IN LONDON

Post-Incident Hardening for London businesses

London is home to a dense concentration of financial services, media and professional firms — frequent, high-value ransomware targets. Recovering the data is only half the job — if the gap that let the attacker in is still open, you're just waiting for a repeat. Hardening looks at how the compromise happened and closes that specific route, rather than offering generic advice. Walk-in drop-off is available at our Bermondsey lab, or we can arrange same-day courier collection.

Identify the entry point

We work out how the attacker actually got in — a VPN without MFA, an exposed remote-desktop port, a phishing email — rather than assuming.

Review your backup strategy

We check whether backups are isolated from the systems they protect, and recommend changes so a future incident can't reach them too.

Tighten access controls

Multi-factor authentication, VPN configuration and least-privilege access get a practical review, focused on the gap that was actually used.

Set up monitoring

We recommend monitoring and alerting so early signs of a repeat incident get caught in minutes, not weeks.

This is scoped to the incident we just handled, not a generic security audit — closing the specific door that was used to get in. Serving London and the wider Greater London area — start a case on the contact page, or see the full ransomware response overview.
