What is DFIR?
Digital Forensics & Incident Response (DFIR) covers everything you need during a cyber incident: from preparation to containment, forensic investigation and recovery. DEFION delivers 24/7 incident response across Europe. AI accelerates triage, our specialists determine the strategy. You get faster containment, less damage and evidence that holds up under scrutiny.
Why organisations outsource incident response
During an incident, no one knows exactly what to do
No rehearsed playbooks, no crisis management protocol, no communications template. Half the team freezes, the other half is overwhelmed. Hours pass without clarity. While damage compounds by the minute.
External IR teams react too late
Without a retainer, average wait time is 24 to 72 hours. In that window the attacker spreads further, ransomware encrypts more systems and volatile evidence vanishes. Responding in hours instead of days often saves millions.
Forensic evidence doesn't hold up at the insurer or in court
Insurers reject claims when chain-of-custody is missing. Criminal cases stall on procedural errors. Perpetrators stay invisible. Forensic work done under pressure without protocol is worthless after the fact.

No external handover, no waiting time, no process gap between detection and response.
