Cyber incidents demand clarity

Find the truth.
Contain the threat.

Senior-led incident response, digital forensics and AI security architecture for organisations facing complex compromise, regulatory pressure and high-consequence technology change.

Remote-first UK deliveryEvidence-led conclusionsEnterprise experience
Two specialist practices

Secure what matters—before and after an incident.

ThreatArrest brings investigation and architecture together. We help organisations understand real attacks, make safe decisions under pressure and build systems that are more difficult to compromise.

Incident Response & Digital Forensics

Remote-led investigations across endpoints, servers, identities, applications, databases, cloud services and mobile devices. We establish what happened, how far it spread and what the evidence can support.

AI Security Architecture & Assurance

Security architecture, threat modelling and assurance for generative AI, RAG, agentic systems and AI-enabled applications—from identity and retrieval controls to model abuse, monitoring and governance.

Specialist capability across the attack path.

Select a category to explore. Engagements are scoped around the questions the evidence must answer—not a pre-set tool or checklist.

⚠

Incident Triage & Initial Assessment

Validate the incident, identify immediate risk, prioritise volatile evidence and provide proportionate containment recommendations.

◉

Compromise Assessment

Hunt for unauthorised access, persistence, credential misuse and lateral movement across endpoints, identity, cloud and network evidence.

⌕

Root-Cause Analysis

Identify the initial access route, reconstruct attacker progression and distinguish the root cause from contributing control failures.

✉

Business Email Compromise

Investigate mailbox access, malicious rules, OAuth consent, session abuse, impersonation and payment-diversion activity.

▤

Database Intrusion

Examine authentication, queries, privilege changes, operating-system execution and potential access to business records.

☁

Cloud Forensics

Reconstruct identity and API activity across AWS, Azure and Google Cloud, including storage access and temporary credential abuse.

⌘

Application, API & Web Forensics

Rebuild exploit paths from web, proxy and application evidence, and trace access into databases and internal services.

▣

Endpoint & Server Forensics

Analyse Windows, Linux and macOS evidence for process execution, persistence, credential theft, malware and data staging.

▯

Smartphone Forensics

Investigate supported mobile devices for suspicious applications, account activity, communications, spyware indicators and data loss.

▰

Payment Data & PCI Incidents

Assess payment applications and cardholder environments for unauthorised access, web skimming and payment-data exposure.

♙

Identity & Active Directory

Investigate compromised accounts, privilege escalation, token abuse, domain-controller access and hybrid identity persistence.

✣

Ransomware & Malware

Determine initial access, propagation, security-control interference, encryption impact and whether data was stolen first.

◎

Insider Threat

Correlate user, endpoint, cloud, email and application evidence to distinguish normal work from deliberate misuse or theft.

⇧

Data Exfiltration Assessment

Separate confirmed transfer from staging, possible access and evidential uncertainty across host, network and cloud sources.

⌁

Vulnerability Exploitation

Determine whether a vulnerable service was exploited, what commands ran and whether the attacker reached downstream systems.

✓

Forensic Readiness

Assess logging, retention, time synchronisation, evidence access and preservation procedures before an incident tests them.

◈

Cyber Tabletop Exercises

Test technical, executive, legal and communications decisions through realistic, organisation-specific incident scenarios.

Our methodology

Disciplined response. Defensible findings.

Response is not perfectly linear. Preservation, analysis and containment are coordinated as the picture develops, with every conclusion tied back to the available evidence.

01 / PREPARE

Forensic readiness

Build the plans, evidence sources, roles and decision routes needed before an incident.

02 / TRIAGE

Assess & scope

Validate the event, identify immediate risk and define the questions the investigation must answer.

03 / PRESERVE

Collect evidence

Secure volatile and historical evidence before it is overwritten, altered or lost.

04 / RESPOND

Analyse & contain

Reconstruct attacker activity while recommending controlled action to prevent further harm.

05 / RECOVER

Eradicate & restore

Remove persistence, address the entry point and return services safely to operation.

06 / IMPROVE

Validate, report & learn

Test recovery, communicate findings and translate lessons into lasting improvement.

Confirmed facts, informed assessments and unresolved limitations are reported separately—because confidence matters as much as conclusion.

AI security practice

Architecture and assurance for AI that acts on real data.

ThreatArrest helps organisations adopt AI without creating uncontrolled paths to sensitive information, privileged actions or untrusted content. We examine the complete system around the model: identity, authorisation, retrieval, tools, integrations, data flows, monitoring and human oversight.

Support spans early design, architecture review, threat modelling, control definition, pre-production assurance and targeted testing of AI-enabled applications.

Why ThreatArrest

Senior judgement where certainty is expensive.

Complex incidents and emerging technology both create pressure to move quickly. We bring technical depth without overstating what the evidence can prove.

Evidence before assumption

We distinguish confirmed activity from possibility and make limitations explicit.

Cross-domain analysis

Identity, endpoint, cloud, application and data evidence are examined together.

Business-aware response

Recommendations balance containment, operational impact and evidence preservation.

Clear communication

Technical depth for responders; decision-ready reporting for leadership.
