Malware analysis and digital forensics is no longer confined to post incident cyber insurance claims or legal investigations. Businesses are now demanding faster cyber attack analysis and containment to help guard against further damage, embarrassment and costly recovery efforts. Digital forensics, with its highly sophisticated analysis tools, are quickly becoming part of the detect, analysis and containment phases of the IR process. Often threats that are once thought eradicated re-emerge with even more damage than before. Incorporating Digital Forensics Incident Response (DFIR) into the IR process helps companies react more efficiently to complex cyber attacks.
