When an attacker gets into a Raleigh company’s email, files or servers, the first hours decide how much it costs. Our incident response work is delivered remotely by U.S.-based engineers, so containment can start as soon as we have admin access, without waiting on a drive across Research Triangle. Most of the cases we handle are compromised Microsoft 365 / Office 365 or Google Workspace accounts, business email compromise and ransomware, for organizations in biotech, cros & life sciences startups, software, saas & tech companies and government contractors, associations & professional firms. North Carolina’s breach notification statute, N.C. Gen. Stat. § 75-65, sets the clock once personal information is exposed. We cover Downtown Raleigh, North Hills, Research Triangle Park, Durham, Chapel Hill and Cary and the rest of the Research Triangle area.

What We Offer

Comprehensive cybersecurity incident response tailored for Raleigh businesses

Microsoft 365 / Office 365 Compromise

Hidden inbox rules, forwarding, OAuth app grants, attacker MFA methods and live sessions found and removed across the tenant.

Google Workspace Compromise

Gmail filters and forwarding, third-party app grants, outside Drive sharing and admin changes cleaned up, audit logs preserved.

Business Email Compromise

Bank recall support, scoping of what the attacker read and sent, and evidence for IC3 and your insurer.

Ransomware Containment

Isolate without destroying evidence, find the entry point, verify backups before restoring, rebuild clean.

Forensic Scoping

Audit, sign-in and endpoint logs preserved early to answer what data was accessed and whose.

Hardening After the Incident

Phishing-resistant MFA, conditional access and alerting in place before the case closes.

Industries We Serve

Specialized expertise for Research Triangle's key industries.

Biotech, CROs & Life Sciences Startups

A compromised mailbox at a practice is rarely just an email problem, because referral letters, lab results and insurance forms sit in it. We scope exactly which messages the attacker could read so your privacy officer can run the HIPAA breach risk assessment on facts instead of assumptions.

Software, SaaS & Tech Companies

For technology companies the worry after an account takeover is customer data and source code. We check cloud tenant and code repository access, revoke tokens and keys the attacker could reuse, and give you a clear account to share with customers who ask.

Government Contractors, Associations & Professional Firms

Defense contractors carry a reporting clock most businesses do not: DFARS 252.204-7012 requires cyber incidents affecting covered defense information to be reported to the DoD within 72 hours of discovery, with images preserved for 90 days. We run containment with that clock and the evidence requirements in mind.

Where hands-on work is needed, we coordinate it as part of the response.

Raleigh FAQ

Common questions about cybersecurity incident response in Raleigh, NC.

Someone is in our Microsoft 365 / Office 365 mailbox. What should a Raleigh business do first?

+
Call us, and do not delete the account. A password reset alone does not remove inbox rules, forwarding, OAuth app grants, an extra MFA method the attacker registered, or live session tokens. We revoke sessions, remove each of those, export the audit logs before they age out, and check which other accounts and contacts the attacker reached.

Do you handle Google Workspace incidents for Raleigh companies?

+
Yes. Google Workspace takeovers follow the same pattern with different mechanics: Gmail filters and forwarding addresses, third-party app grants, Drive files shared outside the domain and admin changes. We contain, clean up and preserve the admin and Drive audit logs.

What does North Carolina law require after a data breach?

+
North Carolina’s breach notification law is N.C. Gen. Stat. § 75-65. Affected individuals must be notified without unreasonable delay; no fixed day count. Regulator notice: Attorney General Consumer Protection Division whenever residents are notified, without unreasonable delay; AG and credit reporting agencies also told if more than 1,000 people are notified at once. Also worth knowing: Covers paper as well as electronic records; notice must give FTC and NC Attorney General contact info. Federal and industry rules, such as HIPAA, can add their own deadlines. We provide the technical scoping of what was accessed and whose data it was; whether and when to notify is a decision to make with your attorney.

Can you respond without being on site in Raleigh?

+
Yes. Cloud tenant incidents are handled entirely remotely, and most endpoint containment is too. Where a machine needs hands-on work, we coordinate it locally as part of the response so nobody on your team is managing an unknown contractor.

Will you work with our cyber insurance carrier?

+
Yes. If you have a policy, call the carrier’s claims hotline first, since many policies require approved vendors. We work alongside the breach coach and forensic firm they assign, or run containment and cleanup directly when no carrier is involved.

Is emergency response available after hours?

+
Yes, for active incidents such as ransomware, an ongoing account takeover or a wire fraud in progress. Our automated monitoring runs 24/7 for managed clients; non-emergency follow-up happens during business hours.
