Ask Me Anything: Accelerating incident response with digital forensics at scale
Whether it’s ransomware, business email compromise, data exfiltration, or an insider threat, today’s DFIR teams work across distributed endpoints, cloud workloads, and remote workforces, often with limited visibility.
Detection and response tools surface alerts and help teams triage, but they don’t fully answer the hard questions: what was the root cause? What was the true scope? Will this hold up with legal, insurance, and regulators?
Those questions require forensic depth and a full view across all data sources.
In this previously recorded Ask Me Anything (AMA) session, Doug Metz, former Manager of Cyber Security Incident Management at a Fortune 500 consumer goods company and Senior Security Forensics Specialist at Magnet Forensics, and Jeff Bickford, former Senior Consultant, DFIR at global cybersecurity firm’s threat intelligence unit and Solutions Consultant at Magnet Forensics shares insights that draw on real-world experience and how they’ve support Magnet Forensics customers through ransomware, BEC, and malware investigations.
Watch as Doug and Jeff answer questions around how digital forensics helps teams:
- Triage incidents with remote, scalable endpoint collection
- Investigate across almost any data source: endpoints, memory, cloud apps/storage, and SaaS platforms
- Confirm root cause and scope using forensic artifacts
- Map findings to frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK to communicate clearly with stakeholders
- Recover deleted, hidden, or obfuscated data tied to threat actor activity
- Preserve metadata and chain of custody for downstream legal, insurance, and regulatory needs
- Streamline reporting for security leadership, legal, and executive stakeholders
