About Surefire Cyber
Surefire Cyber is redefining the incident response model by delivering a swifter, stronger response to cyber incidents such as ransomware, email compromise, malware, data theft, and other threats. Our client-centric approach reduces stress and provides clients the confidence needed to prepare, respond, and recover from cyber incidents – and fortify their cyber resilience after an event.
Surefire Cyber’s approach and delivery are designed by industry veterans who have worked shoulder-toshoulder with law firms, insurance carriers, brokers, law enforcement, and impacted organizations in responding to cyber incidents. We are marshaling this experience to address the industry’s persistent challenges of efficiency, predictability, and transparency
