Security Breach Consulting Services, and Dark Web Monitoring
A security breach is any incident that results in unauthorized access of data, applications, services, networks and/or devices by bypassing their underlying security mechanisms. A security breach occurs when an individual or an application illegitimately enters a private, confidential or unauthorized logical IT perimeter.
Unfortunately no organization of any size or industry is completely safe against cyberattacks and becoming breach. While you may not think you are a target, attackers will attempt to make money from any viable opportunity that crosses their path. This creates a situation in which it is not a matter of if, but when, you will experience an security breach incident.
