Immediate Incident Response

Only IDCARE can provide expertise for incident responders on what over 100,000 engagements across impacted persons that experience privacy breaches want to know each year, how they will react, and what they really need when their information is exposed. Your incident response will benefit from the journey of more than a thousand organisations that have already utilised IDCARE’s expertise.

• 24/7 Incident Response Advisor – an independent, objective and confidential “go to” person to test response options, decisions and strategies. To become an IDCARE Incident Response Advisor you need to earn your stripes and clock up a minimum of 100 incidents. You are not dealing with someone new. You are being advised by an industry leader.
• Assessment and Response Planning – get the facts about the real risks and what can be done to address them. Stop risk chasing and let IDCARE connect you with its contemporary knowledge of real risk.
• Notification and Communications – strategy development, stakeholder planning, regulatory notification drafting, and notification development and execution.
• Impacted person care – provide impacted persons with their own IDCARE award winning Case Manager and exclusive access to our IDCARE Client Portal where IDCARE can carry the load for individuals in seeking to address their risks.
• Close the Loop – get daily feeds on sentiment and feedback on how the incident is being managed from the voice of those impacted.

Intelligence and Insights

One way we can lift response standards and support our community is by supporting organisations with access to our unique intelligence and insights.

• Our Identity Security Operations Centre continuously monitors the online environment for instances of data breaches, ransomware postings, and the trading of personal and account information.
• We perform our profiling and alerting on behalf of national security agencies, law enforcement and organisations that experience data breach events.
• We often see things well in advance of others because our monitoring is bespoke, tailored to the Australian and New Zealand contexts, and does not rely on a vendor’s products.
• We provide daily alerting, monthly reporting, and quarterly benchmarking.
• Through analysis of client engagements with our National Case Management Centres, IDCARE can provide case studies specific to your industry and organisation.
• Our team continuously tests organisational responses across many different scenarios whether they are a partner of IDCARE or not. Our response plan and testing library is second to none and it helps us understand what it preventable, what an impacted person can expect, and where the gaps are.
• Our customer satisfaction and sentiment measures are highly informative for organisations striving for customer-first outcomes. We benchmark across specific scenarios, organisations and markets. We know intimately who is “naughty” and who is “nice” when it comes to customer engagement and support.

Capabilities Unique to IDCARE

What do you get from IDCARE that you will find nowhere else?

• National Case Management Centres resourced with experts who live and breathe everyday risks and responses to the exposure of personal, account and credential information. It is literally a one-stop-shop for anyone who has concerns about their information and the devices that hold such details.
• Identity Security Operations Centre analysts are on watch every day. They detect breaches, inform community members when they see their credentials exposed, and continuously test the response environment. IDCARE commenced monitoring the dark net environment for law enforcement before most had even heard of the dark net. We know intimately the forums, the markets, the vendors and their products. We know where to look and what needs attention.
• Cyber First Aid is a world first counter-scam proprietary capability. When a staff member or customer experiences the compromise of a device (mobile, tablet or computer) our Cyber First Aid cleans the device, addresses account security vulnerabilities, removes persistent remote access software instances, and gives clients a clean bill of health. It can be delivered anywhere in the world and gives confidence and assurance to users that their devices have countered the scam!
• The IDCARE Client Portal is our online portal which connects industry and government on behalf of community members that need to protect their personal information. It allows IDCARE to do the heavy lifting for customers that would otherwise be on their own to put in place protection and response measures when bad things happen. The IDCARE Client Portal saves time and in doing so, creates prevention opportunities to disrupt the criminals that want to exploit personal, account and credential information.
