What We Do
Arete is a global cyber risk company whose mission is to transform the way organizations prepare for, respond to, and prevent cybercrime. We are leaders in the cyber incident response business, having worked on thousands of matters since our inception in 2016. When clients engage Arete, they gain access to the world’s leading cybersecurity professionals — anywhere in the world — within hours, not days. We also work with organizations after a cyberattack to harden their systems and controls to help prevent future disruption.
We often partner with insurance carriers and their legal counsel in response to cyber insurance claims and are proud to work closely with these firms who are on the frontlines of keeping businesses and local governments up and running after cyberattacks.
We are a highly data-driven organization that uses the data we collect and the information we curate not only to improve outcomes for our clients but also inform new models and approaches for cyber risk mitigation and underwriting. We believe in the concept of “collective defense” of our economy, infrastructure, and livelihoods against cybercrime and actively work with law enforcement, government entities, and industry consortia to share our findings and best practices.
At Arete, we share a common passion, with uncompromising integrity in all that we do, to help our clients impacted by emerging issues in cybercrime. Through our rapid response and technical expertise, we have significantly reduced the financial impact and business interruption attributed to cyberattacks.
