About Critical Defence

Critical Defence is a leading provider of security assurance, response and intelligence services. The firm operates within the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom and the European Union.

Critical Defence partners with organizations, institutions and governments to protect critical electronic computing infrastructure. Critical Defence solutions provide a structured framework in which compensating controls and measured response are key elements.

Network computing environments continue to be placed under pressure from malicious users and well crafted attacks. These increasingly pervasive attacks place organizations under ongoing pressure to protect mission critical applications and connected infrastructures. While yesterday’s attacks were network centric and aimed at disabling the infrastructure, attackers have now aimed their sights on applications and the sensitive data stored within them.

Session hijacking through cookie manipulation leading to theft of funds, proprietary information compromise, credit card theft and the like has become commonplace. Exploitation of poorly written code to gain access to systems and the data which they house is on the rise. There are many examples of compromise within large, well-known brands making headlines. However the fact is that many organizations are hacked and may remain hacked for extended periods of time prior to discovering that exploitation has taken place.

Extended compromises ultimately lead to a very costly and difficult situation for the business to recover from. Many such computer crimes go unreported and therefore the extent of exploitation is largely masked from the general public. Legislation now requires the reporting of such events in most cases. In some instance both civil and criminal charges can be filed for improper notifications.

Critical Defence provides comprehensive solutions to secure critical information assets. Our solutions enable organizations to effectively plan for and respond to security threats. Critical Defence believes that an organization must identify its risk, measure the risk’s potential impact and build commensurate controls to mitigate each risk. While this appears to be a logical approach to security, many organizations do not follow such processes. Many times an organization determines the value of its key assets only after the organization has been breached.

Through its structured programs, Critical Defence enables its customers to keep pace with the latest threats. Critical Defence’s solutions establish a baseline which aligns risk reduction and corporate spend. Critical Defence’s solutions are comprehensive providing planning, testing and response solutions. The Critical Defence Risk Management Team is comprised of industry certified experts who maintain significant real world experience. Our organization is results driven. Whether responding to an incident, conducting a forensic investigation, or establishing a baseline security program, our team strives to provide measurable business results.

All of Critical Defence’s services are accompanied by meaningful guarantees of satisfaction that provide continual assurance that your organization is receiving the “world-class” level of service that it deserves.

Critical Defence, an exceptional choice and a trusted provider.
