From Investigation to Recovery
Strengthening Cyber Resilience
CliffGuard’s Digital Forensics, Incident Response (DFIR) & Cyber Investigation Services help organizations respond to complex cyber incidents, determine what happened, preserve critical evidence, and understand the full scope of compromise. We investigate ransomware, data breaches, insider activity, account compromise, cloud incidents, cyber fraud, malware, and other high-impact security events across modern enterprise environments.
Our specialists combine forensic investigation, incident response, attack reconstruction, evidence preservation, malware analysis, and investigative intelligence to uncover attacker activity, support containment and recovery, and provide defensible findings for technical, executive, legal, regulatory, and insurance stakeholders.
Digital Forensics and Incident Response (DFIR) combines forensic examination with coordinated incident response to identify attacker activity, determine compromise scope, preserve evidence, contain threats, and support secure recovery. It provides organizations with both immediate operational response and deeper investigative understanding.
Cyber investigations extend beyond technical containment by reconstructing attack paths, examining user and adversary behavior, analyzing digital artifacts, establishing timelines, tracing unauthorized access, and determining whether sensitive systems or data were affected. Investigations may involve endpoints, identities, networks, cloud platforms, SaaS environments, mobile devices, email systems, and malicious code.
CliffGuard applies structured practices aligned with NIST SP 800-61 Rev. 3, NIST CSF 2.0, ISO/IEC 27035-1:2023, ISO/IEC 27037, and established forensic evidence-handling principles to support consistent investigation, preservation, analysis, response, recovery, and post-incident improvement.
