Agent Forensics & Cyber Readiness

When an AI agent causes your next incident, can you prove what it did?

Most organizations can’t. RedCon1 Response gives leaders the evidence, the playbooks, and the judgment to answer — before the board, the regulator, and the insurer ask.

Readiness you can prove.

Every engagement turns “we don’t know” into evidence — for incidents caused by attackers, and for incidents caused by your own AI agents.

AI Agent Incident Readiness Assessment

This assessment answers that question in advance: do your logs, identities, and retention actually let you reconstruct what an agent did, why it acted, what it touched, and what happened next? We test logging, identity attribution, tool-call traceability, retention, and evidence integrity against the Agent Action Event framework — and hand you a prioritized plan to close every blind spot before an incident finds it first.

Can Your Leadership Team Govern the First 72 Hours of a Cyber Crisis?

Cyber crisis readiness is leadership readiness. This checklist helps executives and incident leaders quickly assess whether the organization is prepared to make the decisions that matter most during the first seventy-two hours of a serious cyber incident.

You already have the tools, the vendors, and the policies. The test is whether leadership can turn them into coordinated action when facts are incomplete and the clock is running.

Your submission will be captured in Netlify Forms under resource-download. RedCon1 Response does not ask for passwords, forensic evidence, or confidential incident data through this form.

Inside the checklist

  • Executive decision readiness questions
  • First 72-hour governance checkpoints
  • Ransomware and data extortion readiness prompts
  • Evidence, legal, insurance, and communications checks
  • Recovery and business continuity assumptions
  • QuickScan readiness prioritization prompts

What I Build

I don't just advise on cyber resilience — I build it.

The advisory work is grounded in hands-on engineering. The clearest expression of that is Agent Autopsy — independent, evidence-grade dead-box forensics for the agentic workforce. It stands on its own as a product.

The Software · Agent Forensics

Agent Autopsy

Independent, evidence-grade forensics for AI agent incidents. It reconstructs what an AI agent read, called, changed, and decided from logs the organization already has — without requiring a sensor or prior deployment.
