Engage seasoned specialists to prepare for, respond to, and recover from cyber incidents, rapidly, precisely, and with rigor.
When a cyber incident strikes, every second counts. The speed and quality of your response determines whether the event is contained quickly or escalates into prolonged disruption, reputational damage, and potential regulatory scrutiny.
Parabellum’s Cyber Crisis and Incident Response service provides the expertise and structure required to navigate these high-pressure situations. Our consultants are available 24/7 to contain active threats, conduct forensic analysis, and coordinate a rapid return to business operations.
What sets us apart is our ability to mobilise more than just technical response. Parabellum draws on a trusted network of specialist cyber law firms and leading communications experts to assemble an elite, seasoned crisis team around our clients. Working side by side with insurers and law enforcement where required, we ensure every dimension of the incident is managed strategically, from compliance obligations and global legal exposure to customer communications and regulatory engagement.
The result is not just recovery, but confidence. With Parabellum, you have the combined force of technical, legal, and communications expertise at your side, ensuring the best possible outcome in the moments that matter most.
Digital forensics is the science of uncovering how an incident occurred, what systems were affected, and what evidence remains behind. A successful investigation not only identifies the attacker’s methods but also provides clarity for insurers, regulators, and courts. Without proper forensic processes, crucial evidence can be lost or rendered inadmissible.
Parabellum’s Digital Forensics service combines deep technical expertise with disciplined methodology. Our consultants collect and preserve evidence across servers, endpoints, cloud environments, and mobile devices, maintaining strict chain-of-custody standards. We analyse logs, memory captures, and file systems to reconstruct attacker activity, uncover persistence mechanisms, and determine the full extent of compromise.
We also work seamlessly with external stakeholders. Parabellum liaises with insurers, regulators, and law enforcement while also supporting your legal teams. Our investigations provide the evidential foundation needed for claims, litigation, or regulatory reporting. Findings are presented with precision, including technical detail for security teams and strategic clarity for executives.
The outcome is not only answers but confidence, the knowledge that your investigation has been handled with the highest forensic standards and can withstand scrutiny in any forum.
The most effective way to manage a cyber incident is to prepare before it happens. Without a tested plan and clear playbooks, organisations risk confusion, delays, and inconsistent responses during the moments that matter most.
Parabellum’s Incident Response Plan and Playbook Development service equips your organisation with the frameworks needed to respond swiftly and effectively. Our consultants design bespoke plans aligned to your business model, risk profile, and regulatory obligations. We go beyond generic templates, crafting documents that clearly define escalation paths, communication protocols, decision-making responsibilities, and recovery priorities.
Playbooks are developed for the threats most relevant to your industry, from ransomware and insider breaches to cloud compromise or data theft. These playbooks give both technical teams and executives step-by-step guidance on how to act decisively, reducing downtime and limiting impact.
We also integrate external stakeholders into the planning process. Parabellum works with your legal counsel, communications partners, insurers, and regulators to ensure every dimension of the response is covered. The result is not just a plan on paper, but a living framework that can be operationalised at a moment’s notice.
A documented incident response plan is essential, but until it is tested under pressure, no organisation can be certain how it will perform. Tabletop exercises and live simulations bridge that gap, giving your teams the opportunity to rehearse their roles, test decision-making, and build the confidence to respond effectively when the stakes are high.
Parabellum’s Incident Response Simulation and Tabletop Exercise service delivers realistic, bespoke, scenario-driven workshops tailored to your business, technical enviroment and threat landscape. Our consultants design simulations around the incidents most relevant to your industry, including; ransomware outbreaks, insider breaches, cloud account compromises, business email compromise or large-scale data loss.
Sessions can focus specifically on specific business units or bring together technical teams, executives, legal counsel, communications, and other stakeholders into a customised crisis scenario. Each group is guided through decision points and crisis challenges in a safe, controlled environment. The exercise highlights where processes hold strong, and where refinement is needed.
Following the simulation, Parabellum provides clear recommendations to strengthen your incident response plans, playbooks, and coordination. The outcome is more than practice, it is measurable improvement in your organisation’s ability to manage cyber crises with speed and precision.
When cyber incidents lead to legal, regulatory, or commercial disputes, the ability to present clear, credible, and impartial expert testimony is critical. Technical complexity often defines these cases, and without the right expertise, arguments can be misunderstood or dismissed.
Parabellum’s Expert Witness Services provide access to seasoned cyber security professionals with backgrounds in government, industry, and national security. Our consultants are experienced in preparing reports, explaining findings, and providing testimony that stands up under scrutiny.
We support clients through litigation, arbitration, regulatory investigations, and insurance disputes. Our role is to analyse technical evidence, translate it into plain language, and provide authoritative, defensible conclusions. We maintain strict impartiality, ensuring that every opinion is grounded in verifiable evidence and established best practice.
Whether supporting your legal counsel, insurers, or regulators, Parabellum delivers the credibility and clarity needed to achieve the best possible outcome in complex cyber disputes.
Cyber crises rarely remain confined to the technical domain. Legal obligations, regulatory scrutiny, and reputational risk all converge in the wake of a major incident. Without alignment between legal counsel, communications specialists, and technical responders, organisations risk inconsistent messaging, regulatory penalties, and loss of trust.
Parabellum ensures that every stream of your response works in harmony. We seamlessly integrate specialist cyber legal counsel and crisis communications experts, either from our trusted partner network or by working directly with your existing advisors. This coordination brings legal precision, message discipline, and technical authority together in one unified response.
Our team manages touchpoints with regulators, insurers, law enforcement, and media, ensuring that obligations are met and reputational damage is minimised. Throughout the incident lifecycle, we maintain alignment between legal, PR, and technical decision-making, protecting your organisation’s interests at every level.
The outcome is confidence: knowing that your crisis response covers not just containment and recovery, but also compliance, reputation, and stakeholder trust.
