THE PROBLEM ISN'T
MORE ALERTS.
The challenge is determining what matters, understanding what happened and responding appropriately.
Modern IT infrastructure produces millions of events daily. Generic legacy MDRs overwhelm internal teams with alert notifications without context, passing the burden of investigation back to the customer. When genuine intrusions occur, critical signals are buried in the noise.
Outsourced triage teams forward raw telemetry tickets to your engineers at 02:00. No contextual root cause, no host containment, and no customized detection engineering. The client remains responsible for remediation.
ZIMA analysts investigate suspicious signals before they reach your inbox. We correlate process hierarchies, interrogate lateral movement, execute host containment, and deliver definitive findings with tailored prevention rules.
HOW ZIMA WORKS
A disciplined operational flow across the entire defensive lifecycle: from initial telemetry capture to containment and hardening.
Every event moves through an auditable pipeline engineered to minimize Mean Time to Detect (MTTD) and Mean Time to Contain (MTTC).
01. Customer Environment
Workstations, sovereign servers, cloud VPCs, network egress firewalls, and active identity directories.
02. Security Telemetry
In-situ process logs, network sockets, DNS requests, and authentication activity collected locally without external leakage.
03. Detection & Analysis
Continuous behavioral decoders, Sigma rules, file integrity verifications, and MITRE ATT&CK pattern matching.
04. Threat Intelligence
Instant observable enrichment against threat indicator feeds, adversary infrastructure tracking, and campaign correlation.
05. Deep Investigation
Senior security analysts reconstruct process trees, inspect network destinations, and eliminate false positives.
06. Coordinated Response
Targeted host network isolation, malicious process termination, and credential revocation executed within < 15 min.
07. Security Improvement
Root cause analysis engineered directly into customized detection rules, permanently hardening your security posture.
THREAT INTELLIGENCE
Context turns isolated signals into actionable intelligence.
Raw logs and standalone alerts provide zero defensive advantage without attribution. ZIMA continuously enriches internal telemetry against live adversary campaigns, sovereign threat indicators, and infrastructure clusters to understand adversary intent.
Correlate observed command-and-control IP ranges, registry hashes, and staging domains against active global APT groups targeting your industry.
Curated feeds from NCSC, CERT-EU, CISA, and regional intelligence desks translated into actionable Sigma rules.
Live Threat Intelligence Query
Interrogate verified threat intelligence sources and CVE repositories.
DETECT WHAT MATTERS.
We eliminate the noise and surface high-confidence intrusion patterns before adversaries achieve lateral momentum.
Security telemetry is worthless if it creates an avalanche of trivial alerts. ZIMA engineers custom Sigma rules and behavioral heuristics that distinguish benign administrative commands from unauthorized execution, privilege escalation, and credential harvesting.
24/7 endpoint, server, network perimeter, and cloud identity visibility.
Custom decoders mapped directly to adversary ATT&CK techniques.
DEEP INVESTIGATION
Automated alerts tell you something happened. Human analysis tells you why, how, and what is at risk.
Every suspicious anomaly escalated by ZIMA decoders undergoes forensic reconstruction by senior defense engineers. We reconstruct process parentage, analyze memory injections, trace lateral network movement, and evaluate attacker intent before issuing containment mandates.
Inspect execution lineage from initial entry vector down to sub-process spawning.
Preserve injected DLLs and decrypted payloads before adversary cleanup routines execute.
Distinguish authorized administrative maintenance from credential abuse.
CONTAINMENT IN MINUTES.
NOT HOURS OR DAYS.
Active intrusions demand swift, decisive intervention to stop lateral spread before ransomware encryption or data exfiltration occurs.
ZIMA operates with a guaranteed sub-15-minute Mean Time to Contain (MTTC). Our defense engineers enforce surgical network quarantine, revoke compromised access tokens, kill adversary threads, and secure forensics without taking down entire business subnets.
THE INCIDENT LIFECYCLE JOURNEY
From first telemetry tripwire to regulatory closure and permanent defensive hardening.
Detection & Ingestion
Telemetry tripwires trigger on anomalous parentage, unmapped port egress, or suspicious credential use in under 400ms.
Triage & Deep Analysis
Senior analysts reconstruct execution chains, rule out authorized DevOps changes, and map adversary TTPs to MITRE ATT&CK.
Surgical Containment
Rapid host quarantine, active process kill, and credential revocation executed in under 15 minutes to halt lateral progression.
Forensics & Legal Counsel
Volatile memory captures preserved for forensic audit. Immediate alignment with Abba Zanzibar Attorneys for data breach notification and statutory compliance.
Root Cause Hardening
Custom Sigma rules and architectural mitigations deployed across fleet so the exact attack vector can never succeed again.
[STRATEGIC LEGAL & REGULATORY ALLIANCE]
SECURITY OPERATIONS &
LEGAL COUNSEL ALIGNED.
A severe security incident is never just a technical crisis. It is a legal, regulatory, and contractual emergency.
ZIMA MDR maintains an operational partnership with Abba Zanzibar Attorneys, establishing a seamless bridge between technical forensic containment and statutory legal privilege. When an incident occurs, technical evidence must be preserved according to evidentiary standards, and regulatory notification clocks begin immediately.
01 / Attorney-Client Privilege & Incident Forensics
Coordination of technical forensic inquiries under legal privilege to protect preliminary findings during sensitive investigation phases.
02 / Mandatory Breach Notification (72-Hour Timelines)
Structured guidance on statutory notifications required under GDPR, Data Protection Acts, and sector-specific financial authorities.
03 / Chain-of-Custody & Admissibility
Forensic telemetry and memory dumps preserved according to strict chain-of-custody standards required for commercial litigation or prosecution.
04 / Contractual & Third-Party Liability Assessment
Immediate review of customer SLAs, supply-chain notification obligations, and cyber insurance policy compliance requirements.
