Three products, three customer segments, one AI engine. Pick the one built for how you buy and how you run incidents.
ICS-style cyber incident command for state & local government, K-12 and higher ed, fire, EMS, and law enforcement. Multi-agency coordination, FERPA + CJIS templates, mobile-first for the field.
For SMB and mid-market private companies (typically not SEC-regulated). Cyber insurance renewal readiness, parallel regulatory clock tracking, Slack + Teams + SIEM integrations, and AI that makes a 3-person security team as effective as a 15-person one.
For Fortune 1000, public (SEC-regulated) companies, multi-BU organizations, critical infrastructure, and federal contractors. SEC Item 1.05 disclosure workflow, multi-BU hierarchy, SSO/SAML/SCIM, private IR Brain, NERC CIP + TSA + CIRCIA + DORA compliance mapping, dedicated CSM.
Every one of these replaces something you hate doing. Every one of them cites its source from the IR Brain so you and your board trust the output. The real reason to buy IR-OS: you want the outcomes, not the paperwork.
Conversational AI interview. Fully customized, regulator-mapped IR plan in your hand in 15 minutes — not 6 weeks of consulting or staring at a blank template.
Was: 60-page template nobody opens Now: 15 min
Reads your org chart. Suggests the right person for each of the six incident command roles plus two named backups. No more "who should be on the team?" committee meetings.
Was: Months of committee Now: Minutes
Every AI suggestion is grounded in NIST 800-61, ISO/IEC 27035, SEC, GDPR, CISA, MITRE ATT&CK, and 150+ tabletop patterns — and cites the source so your board trusts the output.
Was: Scrambling across PDFs Now: Instant, cited
SEC Item 1.05, GDPR Article 33, HIPAA, NY DFS, state breach laws, cyber insurance, NIS2, DORA — every clock auto-tracked in parallel from the moment you declare. Zero spreadsheet math.
Was: Outlook calendar + prayers Now: Auto-tracked
The moment you close the incident, IR-OS produces a board-ready AAR from the hash-chained event ledger: timeline, what worked, gaps with severity, SLA compliance, regulatory status, remediation plan with owners.
Was: 40 hours of writing Now: 2 minutes
SHA-256 hash-chained append-only event ledger. Every decision, notification, and handoff cryptographically timestamped. Regulator-proof, plaintiff-proof, board-proof under Federal Rule of Evidence 901.
Was: "We think that happened" Now: Cryptographic proof
Every one of these works on day one. You don't wait for a 6-month implementation. You don't wait for a consultant. You log in, answer some questions, and you have AI superpowers by lunchtime.
Nobody's real reason for buying a CIRM platform is "I love writing IR plans." The real reason is the opposite. Here's what changes the day you turn IR-OS on.
Bottom line: you get the outcome a 6-week consulting engagement and a 40-hour AAR writing session would produce — in minutes, not months, with AI that cites every source.
TL;DR: IR-OS is a Cyber Incident Response Management (CIRM) platform that coordinates the human side of cyber incident response — roles, decisions, regulatory clocks, stakeholder communications, and a cryptographically defensible record. Every workflow is extracted from 150+ real C-Suite tabletop exercises.
IR-OS complements detection tools like SIEM and EDR. Where those answer "what is happening?", IR-OS answers "who decides, when, and how do we prove it?" It is built on frameworks including NIST SP 800-61 and aligned to regulatory regimes including the SEC Item 1.05 four-business-day rule and GDPR Article 33's 72-hour clock.
Key Takeaway: According to the Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report and the IBM Cost of a Data Breach analysis, most breach cost is concentrated in containment time — which is a coordination problem, not a detection problem. IR-OS closes that gap. Read our data-backed coordination gap analysis, the 2026 incident response playbook, or our ransomware response guide.
You've invested millions in detection tools. But when an incident hits, the response still runs on email threads, Slack chaos, and someone's spreadsheet. That's the gap attackers exploit. As NIST SP 800-61 defines it, incident response is a six-phase discipline — and five of those phases are about what humans do after detection.
Your SIEM fires. Your EDR quarantines. But who's calling legal? Who's notifying the board? Who owns the comms hold? Detection tools don't answer those questions.
Static PDFs and wiki pages look great in audits. They collapse at 2 AM when three executives are asking different questions and nobody knows the current status.
If you can't prove what you did, when you did it, and who decided — regulators, insurers, and plaintiffs will write that story for you.
Most incident response tools are built by developers who've never run an actual incident. IR-OS was built from 150+ real C-Suite tabletop exercises — every workflow, every prompt, every default reflects what actually happens when the call comes in.
Every task template, escalation path, and status flow was extracted from real exercises with real executives. Not theoretical — pressure-tested.
AI suggestions are grounded in your IR plan, regulatory requirements, and insurance obligations — not generic best practices from a training set.
IR-OS doesn't ask you to configure everything. It ships with defaults that work because they came from the room, not a product committee.
After 150+ executive tabletop exercises, the same three friction points come up every single time. They are the reason most IR programs stall before they ever get tested. IR-OS removes all three with AI coaching grounded in the largest incident response knowledge base anywhere.
The problem: Nobody wants to download a 60-page IR plan template and stare at it. It's the same paralysis a writer feels at a blank first page — and it kills more IR programs than any other single factor.
The IR-OS fix: Our AI Plan Coach conducts a 15-minute conversational interview — your industry, regulatory exposure, team size, technology stack, prior incidents — and generates a complete, customized incident response plan in real time. You answer questions in plain English. The plan writes itself, mapped to NIST 800-61, your relevant regulators, and your insurer's requirements.
What you get: A defensible, board-ready IR plan in under 30 minutes — not 6 weeks of consulting fees.
The problem: Nobody wants the responsibility of choosing the Incident Response Command (IRC) team. Or they're unsure who to choose. The Crisis Communications role goes to whoever happens to be in the room. The Legal Liaison gets named in a panic. Backups are an afterthought.
The IR-OS fix: Our IRC Team Recommender reads your org chart and suggests the right person for each of the six roles based on their function, seniority, and the patterns we've extracted from 150+ exercises. Crisis Comms goes to your PR/Communications lead. Legal Liaison goes to your General Counsel or designated privacy attorney. Every role gets a primary and two named backups — because incidents happen during vacations.
What you get: A fully-staffed IRC with backups, role-specific training tracks, and pre-authorized decisions — in minutes, not months of committee meetings.
The problem: Incident response knowledge is scattered across NIST publications, ISO standards, regulator guidance, court filings, breach disclosures, MITRE ATT&CK, and the personal notebooks of every senior CISO who has ever lived through one. Nobody can hold it all in their head — and most platforms ignore it entirely.
The IR-OS fix: The IR Brain is a Postgres pgvector retrieval-augmented knowledge base that grounds every AI suggestion in cited, authoritative sources. Initial corpus includes NIST SP 800-61 Rev. 2, ISO/IEC 27035-1:2023, NIST CSF 2.0, MITRE ATT&CK, SEC Final Rule 33-11216 (Item 1.05), GDPR Article 33, EDPB Guidelines 9/2022, OFAC ransomware advisory, CISA #StopRansomware Guide, and operational patterns from 150+ real C-Suite tabletop exercises. The corpus is expanding continuously. Every CISO Copilot suggestion retrieves from the brain and cites its sources by bracketed reference.
What you get: A citation-grounded incident response knowledge base wired into every AI agent in the platform — and Enterprise customers can ingest their own private corpus of tabletops, AARs, and incident records on top of the public sources.
Each of these three features answers "What is IR-OS?" in a specific way: it removes the friction that stops IR programs from ever getting started. Read the Incident Command Roles guide or our 2026 Incident Response Playbook to see how the same patterns show up in real incidents.
Declare, assign roles, track status. One screen, one owner per task, real-time for everyone in the room.
Every event, decision, and status change recorded with SHA-256 hash chain. Tamper-evident by design.
Context-aware suggestions based on your IR plan, incident type, and regulatory requirements. Approve or dismiss with one tap.
Exercise compliance, open gaps, assessment health, insurance expiry — four traffic lights that tell you if you're ready before the next incident.
Findings from exercises, assessments, and after-action reviews all flow into one remediation tracker. Nothing falls through the cracks.
When an incident closes, AI generates a structured after-action review: what worked, what didn't, gaps identified, recommendations — ready for the board.
Regulators want evidence. Insurers want proof. Plaintiffs want gaps. IR-OS gives you an append-only, hash-chained incident record that proves exactly what happened, when, and who decided.
Append-only — events can never be edited or deleted after creation
SHA-256 hash chain — each event cryptographically links to the previous one
Exportable — full timeline available for legal, regulatory, and insurance review
Import your team, upload your IR plan (or use our battle-tested template), and configure your notification preferences. 15 minutes to operational.
Run tabletop exercises with your team. IR-OS captures findings, tracks gaps, and builds your readiness baseline — so when a real incident hits, you're not starting from zero.
Declare an incident, and IR-OS takes over: auto-generates tasks from your plan, surfaces AI suggestions, tracks SLAs, and builds the defensible record in real time.

"During our last incident, we had four executives asking for status updates simultaneously while legal was demanding notification timelines. Before IR-OS, that meant someone on the team was doing nothing but fielding calls. Now the timeline is live, everyone sees the same view, and we actually coordinate instead of just communicate. The first real incident we ran through IR-OS cut our coordination overhead in half."
"Our biggest fear after an incident wasn't the breach itself — it was the audit. Could we prove what we did and when? IR-OS changed that entirely. The hash-chained timeline gave us an evidence package that our regulator accepted without a single follow-up question. The auto-generated AAR saved our team two weeks of documentation work that used to start the day after we closed an incident."
"We'd run tabletop exercises for three years and thought we were ready. IR-OS showed us we weren't. The AI suggestions surfaced gaps in our plan we'd never caught — like the fact that our notification workflow completely missed our European data subjects under GDPR. The readiness dashboard made those blind spots impossible to ignore."
"When we had a ransomware event, the first thing outside counsel asked for was the incident timeline. With IR-OS, we handed them a tamper-evident, hash-chained record within the hour. Our insurer's forensic team said it was the cleanest incident record they'd ever reviewed. That record directly influenced the outcome of our claim."
