About BreachRx

BreachRx is an incident response platform designed to help organizations manage cybersecurity and privacy incidents through automated workflows and regulatory compliance tracking. The platform serves as a centralized hub for coordinating incident response activities across security, legal, privacy, and compliance teams.

What does BreachRx do?

At its core, BreachRx automates the creation and execution of incident response plans. The platform generates tailored response playbooks that provide step-by-step guidance to stakeholders before, during, and after incidents occur. These playbooks integrate requirements from over 180 global regulations across 120 countries, helping organizations navigate complex notification timelines and compliance obligations.

The platform maintains a clear audit trail of all response activities, which is particularly important as incident response records face increasing scrutiny from regulators and auditors. Through its automation capabilities, BreachRx transforms traditionally manual, reactive processes into structured workflows that can be executed consistently across the organization. The system is purpose-built to maintain legal privilege during incidents by providing a protected environment separate from potentially compromised systems.

What makes BreachRx different?

A key distinguishing feature of BreachRx is its emphasis on proactive incident readiness rather than just reactive response. The platform includes capabilities for running tabletop exercises and cyber readiness simulations, allowing teams to practice their response procedures before real incidents occur. The BreachRx Exercise Wizard enables organizations to plan and execute compliance exercises in as little as one hour.

The platform's regulatory analysis capabilities set it apart from general-purpose incident management tools. When an incident occurs, BreachRx automatically identifies which regulations apply, notification deadlines, and required formats based on the type of incident and data involved. This regulatory analysis process, which traditionally takes days of manual review, is reduced to minutes through the platform's automation.

BreachRx provides integration capabilities to connect with existing security and communication tools through its GraphQL API. The platform supports both basic API key authentication and OAuth2 for more complex integrations. This allows organizations to initiate incidents from various systems including intranet forms, Slack channels, and Security Orchestration, Automation and Response (SOAR) platforms while maintaining centralized tracking and coordination in BreachRx.

Use cases and industries

The platform caters to organizations that need to comply with cybersecurity frameworks such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST CSF, HIPAA, and PCI DSS. It is particularly relevant for companies operating in regulated industries or those handling sensitive data across multiple jurisdictions. The platform's automated regulatory analysis makes it valuable for organizations dealing with complex compliance requirements and strict notification timelines.

From a security perspective, BreachRx addresses the operational challenge that approximately 70% of incident costs are shouldered by legal, communications, and other teams rather than the security organization itself. The platform helps coordinate these cross-functional response efforts while maintaining legal privilege. To ensure security of customer data, BreachRx maintains various certifications including SOC 2 Type II and operates from certified data centers with SOC 1, 2, 3 and ISO certifications.

The platform includes specific features for tracking program metrics and generating reports for stakeholders. This includes the ability to measure response efficiency, track incident frequencies, and demonstrate compliance with various frameworks. Through its automation capabilities, BreachRx aims to reduce reliance on outside counsel and consultants for routine incidents while providing the documentation needed for external audits and assessments.
