Ransomware
Encrypted files, locked systems, backup questions, and recovery pressure.
Emergency Cyber Incident Response
If your business is dealing with ransomware, a hacked Microsoft 365 account, suspicious access, locked files, malware, or a possible data breach, the first move matters.
KairosIT helps organizations contain the threat, validate a clean recovery path, and rebuild on a stronger foundation.

Start here
Do not rush to restore systems before you know what was compromised. A bad restore can bring the attacker, malware, exposed credentials, or damaged data right back into the environment.
Incident types
Ransomware is the incident everyone recognizes, but it is not the only event that can shut down operations or expose sensitive data.
Encrypted files, locked systems, backup questions, and recovery pressure.
Hacked inboxes, suspicious access, admin account issues, and email security gaps.
Fraudulent emails, risky mailbox rules, account takeover, and payment-risk response.
Endpoint review, containment, reconnection planning, and validation.
Remote access review, credential reset, admin lockdown, and environment validation.
Technical support for suspected breach, file access review, and evidence preservation.
Recovery process
The response plan depends on what happened, what systems were touched, and what needs to come back online first.
Isolate affected systems, protect backups, suspend risky access, and stop the incident from spreading.
Review identity, endpoints, servers, Microsoft 365, backups, and compromise indicators.
Restore identity, core applications, files, endpoints, and user access in the right order.
Strengthen MFA, least-privilege access, endpoint protection, monitoring, and immutable backup.
Move into managed IT, MDR, backup, disaster recovery, and security governance.
Proof, not promises
KairosIT has helped organizations recover from ransomware and modernize the same weaknesses attackers often exploit: legacy servers, stale admin access, weak remote access, unmanaged endpoints, poor backup design, and incomplete Microsoft cloud migrations.
In one ransomware recovery engagement, our team helped contain encryption to a limited number of systems, rebuild identity and access controls, and move the client toward a secure cloud-first foundation.

Northern California incident responseQuestions
Yes. We can help with triage, containment, backup validation, recovery planning, Microsoft 365 and identity review, endpoint recovery, server recovery, and secure rebuild work.
No. We also help with Microsoft 365 compromise, business email compromise, malware, suspicious admin access, vendor access compromise, data exposure, server compromise, and recovery after a cyber incident.
Not always. Backups need to be validated before restore. If the backup contains malware, compromised access, or the wrong restore point, restoring too quickly can make the incident worse.
Yes. We can coordinate with your cyber insurance carrier, breach counsel, and forensic vendors so the technical recovery work supports the documentation and validation they need.
