Your Systems Are Compromised. Is Your Incident Response?

86% of breaches involve SSO. A single stolen password is all it takes to cause a breach. Now, every minute of delayed incident management makes the damage worse.

Discover the Gap in Your Response Plan

The First Hour Is Critical

Most organizations face an impossible dilemma in a breach: using the same compromised channels to coordinate response, giving attackers a direct view of your incident response strategy. 

Every action becomes visible to the very threat you're trying to counter.

Here’s what actually happens when attackers breach your systems and you’re not ready:

Communication
Breakdown

Attackers gain access to Slack, Teams, and SSO-connected tools—the exact systems your team depends on for daily operations.

Response
Paralysis

When primary channels are compromised, no one feels safe to share vital information, knowing they might be watched.

Coordination
Failure

Decision-making stalls as no secure channel exists for sensitive discussions about containment or management strategies.

Time and
Reputation Loss

Every minute without secure coordination extends business disruption and increases churn, compromising your reputation and clients’ trust.

Escalation

Without rapid, coordinated response capabilities, what started as a contained breach expands into enterprise-wide disruption.

Your Organization Needs a Place to Coordinate That Can't Be Compromised

The First 60 Minutes: Structured Response When Primary Systems Are Compromised

When comms go dark and systems crash, this guide shows you exactly how to take control, fast.

Get the Plan Before You Need It

Attackers Aren’t Hacking In. They're Logging In.

When attackers use legitimate credentials, they bypass your defenses without triggering alarms. Their presence stays undetected as they monitor your communications and escalate privileges—all while your team keeps trying to respond on compromised channels.

Your Tools Weren't Built with Breach Mode

  • Your daily collaboration tools transform into critical vulnerabilities during active incidents. Connected to your compromised network, they expose your response strategy in real-time.
  • Attackers silently observe every decision, every countermeasure, every recovery step—giving them the advantage when you need control most.
  • Secure, out-of-band operations remain essential for maintaining resilience when conventional channels can't be trusted.

Compromised Passwords Are Your Biggest Threat

The Silent Breach That Cripples Response

Credential-based attacks trigger more breaches than phishing or malware, and expose you longer than any other vector. It's not just the breach. It's the surveillance that follows.

Your Active Directory is the Ultimate Target

Once attackers gain access to your identity management systems, they can move laterally through your organization, monitor communications, and sabotage response efforts while remaining virtually undetectable.

The Longer Attackers Watch, the More Damage They Do

Every additional day attackers have access to your systems costs an average of $42,000 in damages. Secure, out-of-band incident management is vital to protect your business and reputation.

The Cost of In-Band Response

Your Everyday Tools Become Your Biggest Liability During a Breach
Group 2085663002 (1)

5 Hours for Attackers to Roam Free

The average time to activate your team during an incident is 5 hours. Every minute counts when attackers are moving through your systems.

ShadowHQ activates your response team in under 1 hour.

Group 2085663002 (1)

20.9 Hours Average Response Time

Global organizations take nearly a full day to respond to cyberattacks. 

When your primary communication channels are compromised, response times extend further while breach costs climb.

85% of Companies Pay the Price

 Only 15% of organizations conduct five or more different attack simulations in tabletop exercises. 

Without regular testing, gaps in preparedness cost an average of $248,000 per incident.

$2.22 Million in Preventable Losses

IBM research shows automated incident response reduces average breach costs by $2.22 million. 

When teams can't coordinate effectively, containable incidents become major breaches.

If You Can’t Operate Securely, You Can’t Respond in a Crisis.

Without a secure, out-of-band place to operate, your incident response and recovery will fail.

Don't Wait Until an Attack to Discover the Gaps in Your Response.
