Contact UsEvery organisation must be prepared to respond quickly and effectively to a cyber incident to ensure continuity of operations and protect their reputations. Privacy and consumer protection regulations also require timely response and notification for cyber incidents.
Kroll’s cyber risk retainer offers maximum flexibility and transparent pricing to ensure our clients get tangible value for their money and have peace of mind knowing they can depend on our prioritised response and global resources in a crisis.
Our cyber risk retainer can adapt to and maximise a company’s existing security stack, so there’s no need to buy new tech. Clients can also leverage our comprehensive slate of cyber risk solutions to strengthen their overall resiliency.
