Incident Response

When a Breach Hits
There's No Time to Delay

An Incident Response retainer puts named incident responders on your side before you need them. Respond within a 2-hour SLA, capturing the timestamped evidence that NIS2 and DORA now require you to produce.

Most Teams Can Detect
Ours Also Has Proven Speed in Response

When an incident starts, so does the regulatory clock. Most organisations don't keep a full-time IR team on staff, so the first hours go to finding help instead of containing damage.

Once systems are wiped or rebuilt, the timestamped evidence a regulator asks for is often already gone. The gap isn't only security capability, it's also about fast, documented defensible response.

FAQ

What's Being Asked about IR Retainer

What is an Incident Response Retainer?
A pre-arranged agreement that guarantees priority access to a specialist response team the moment a breach is suspected. Terms, contacts and response times are set in advance, so containment can start in hours rather than after days of procurement.

How fast will SamurAI respond? 
Retainer clients get a priority line to named responders with a 2-hour SLA on critical incidents, 24/7. Because the agreement is already signed, work begins on the call, not after contracting begins.

Does the SamurAI IR Retainer Help with NIS2 & DORA Regulation Needs?
Yes. NIS2 requires an early warning within 24 hours and a full notification within 72 hours; DORA sets strict reporting timelines for major ICT incidents. The retainer builds a timestamped evidence trail and post-incident report designed to support those obligations.

What's included in the IR Retainer? 

24/7 named responders, rapid deployment of response and forensic tooling, a dedicated incident lead, digital forensics and root-cause analysis, malware and threat analysis, and regulator-ready reporting mapped to NIS2 and DORA.

What happens when we activate it? 

You call the priority line or raise the alert. A named incident lead takes control, deploys tooling, directs containment and keeps you informed. Forensic evidence is captured from the first hour for your regulatory report.

Who is behind the response? 

SamurAI is delivered by NTT Security. Responders draw on NTT threat intelligence spanning roughly 40% of global internet prefixes, and analysts at the Gothenburg SOC are ranked globally in the top 1%. Telemetry is processed within the EEA.
