Incident response
The organised process of containing, investigating and recovering from a cyber intrusion.
Incident response is the organised process that begins when an intrusion is detected: containing the attacker, investigating what happened, eradicating access and restoring operations. Mature organisations rehearse it before they need it, with plans the operators themselves can execute, including in environments where connectivity has failed. The goal is not zero intrusions; it is intrusions that never become crises.
How this plays out in programmes
The goal of incident response is not zero intrusions. It is intrusions that never become crises, and Unstrat helps defence and critical-infrastructure buyers build toward exactly that. Mature response is rehearsed before it is needed, with plans the operators themselves can execute, including in environments where connectivity has failed. Unstrat structures this capability so a buyer can contain an attacker, investigate, eradicate access and restore operations on their own terms. The advantage is resilience the nation controls: the mission continues and essential services recover even under sustained pressure. Keeping response sovereign protects the buyer from depending on an outside party during their most sensitive moments. As the accountable single channel, Unstrat develops this capability with the operators rather than around them. Localisation arrangements are scoped per programme, subject to export controls and end-use approvals.
