DFIR involves collecting evidence, analyzing attack patterns, and supporting legal or compliance requirements following an incident.
What is DFIR used for?
DFIR is used to investigate breaches, identify root causes, and support recovery efforts. It plays a critical role in Incident Response (IR) and helps organizations learn from incidents to improve Security Posture.
