Detect & Respond
Security operations designed for complex, interconnected critical infrastructure organizations
Modern critical organizations operate in environments where IT, OT, cloud services, and third-party connections are increasingly intertwined. This complexity expands the attack surface and increases expectations for continuous detection. Effective response, and resilient operations are paramount in environments where availability, safety and regulatory compliance are critical.
DNV Cyber’s Detect & Respond services are designed for this reality. We help our customers understand, manage, and respond to cyber threats in a structured and deeply contextualised way.
A structured approach to detection and response
Effective detection and response are not achieved through isolated tools or standardized service packages. It requires a clear structure for reducing exposure, defending against threats, and responding to incidents. It is tailored to how each organization operates, manages risk, and uses technology. To support this, DNV Cyber structures its Detect & Respond portfolio around three core solution areas. Together they enable continuous cyber risk management and effective response across IT, OT, and hybrid environments.
Our core Detect & Respond solution areas
Exposure management
Exposure Management focuses on identifying and reducing cyber risk across internal environments and external dependencies, including suppliers and other third parties. It provides visibility into vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and weaknesses, enabling organizations to prioritize remediation based on risk, criticality, and operational impact.
Threat detection and response
Threat detection and response provide continuous monitoring, detection, investigation, and response to cyber threats. It supports timely identification of malicious activity and coordinated response actions to contain incidents, minimize impact, and restore secure operations, across both IT and OT environments.
Proactive threat defence
Proactive Threat Defence aims to prevent incidents before they occur by strengthening security controls, monitoring emerging threats, and reducing attack paths. The focus is on limiting adversary opportunities through threat-informed security practices, continuous improvement of defensive measures, and alignment with the organization’s threat landscape and risk tolerance.
From capabilities to security operations
DNV Cyber’s Detect & Respond services are built from modular capabilities across exposure management, proactive threat defence, and threat detection and response. These capabilities can be combined, scaled up or down, and prioritized based on an organization’s operational environment, risk exposure, and regulatory obligations. We select, integrate, and evolve these capabilities through our bespoke delivery model.
Rather than delivering fixed service packages, we shape security operations by:
- Selecting the right combination of capabilities
- Defining how they are operated and integrated
- Aligning them with each customer’s technology landscape, critical assets, and risk tolerance.
This approach enables security operations that are fit for purpose, supporting complex IT environments, industrial and OT systems, or hybrid operational landscapes.
