Israeli Cyber Security Services for Governments, Corporations and Critical Infrastructure

Discuss Protection RequirementsWhatsApp Our Team
Israeli cyber security services by R&H Global Protection for governments, corporations and critical infrastructure, featuring cyber risk assessments, threat intelligence, incident response, penetration testing, network security and 24/7 security operations monitoring.
R&H Global Protection delivers Israeli cyber security services to sovereign governments, defence organisations, critical infrastructure operators, enterprises and private clients across more than 35 countries. Our cyber division is staffed by specialists drawn from elite Israeli military cyber units and national intelligence bodies — people who spent years defending a small country under constant, well-resourced attack. That background shapes how we work: intelligence first, adversary-led, prevention over reaction.
This page sets out exactly what we deliver, how engagements are structured, what you receive at the end of each one, and how to reach us. If you are dealing with an active incident, skip to the emergency line at the bottom.
01

What Israeli Cyber Security Actually Means (And What It Doesn't)

"Israeli cyber security" gets used loosely as a marketing label. It is worth being precise, because the label alone protects nothing.
What Israel genuinely produces is a doctrine, and a talent pipeline that carries it. The doctrine has three defining characteristics:
It is threat-led, not control-led. Most security programmes start with a control framework and work down: implement the list, tick the boxes, produce the report. Israeli practice starts with the adversary and works backwards: who realistically wants to attack this organisation, what are their capabilities and preferred techniques, what would they target first, and which of our controls would actually stop them. The control framework is the output, not the starting point. In practice this maps closely to MITRE ATT&CK-based threat modelling and purple teaming.
It assumes the perimeter will be breached. Israeli defensive doctrine was built under sustained pressure from well-funded state and state-adjacent actors. When you accept that a sufficiently motivated adversary will eventually get inside, your investment shifts — toward segmentation, detection engineering, dwell-time reduction, and rehearsed response. That is why Israeli-built organisations tend to be strong on detection and containment rather than perimeter hardening alone.
It fuses intelligence with operations. In Israeli practice, threat intelligence is not a subscription feed that lands in an analyst's inbox. It is collection tasked against your specific adversaries, fed directly into detection rules, hunting hypotheses and executive decision-making.
The talent pipeline matters because doctrine without operators is theory. Israel's national service model routes technically capable people into military cyber and SIGINT units at 18, gives them operational responsibility early, and returns them to the civilian economy in their twenties with years of real adversary contact. Israel's national cyber posture is coordinated centrally through the Israel National Cyber Directorate (INCD), which runs the national CERT and sector-level defence coordination — meaning that even private-sector practitioners are trained inside a national defensive architecture rather than in isolation.
What it does not mean: it does not mean a product. It does not mean an offensive capability sold to a private buyer. And it does not mean the doctrine transplants automatically — it has to be adapted to your jurisdiction, your regulator, your legacy estate and your people. That adaptation is most of the work, and it is the part we are paid for.

The 2026 Threat Picture: What the Data Shows

Security budgets get approved on evidence, not adjectives. Here is the evidence that matters to a board or a national cyber authority right now.
Breaches remain expensive, and the exposure is uneven. IBM's Cost of a Data Breach Report 2025 put the global average cost of a breach at USD 4.44 million, the first decline in five years — but the United States average rose to a record USD 10.22 million, driven largely by regulatory fines and detection and escalation costs. Healthcare remained the costliest sector at USD 7.42 million.
Detection speed is the single biggest lever you control. The same research found the mean time to identify and contain a breach fell to 241 days — a nine-year low — and that organisations using AI and automation extensively across security operations shortened the breach lifecycle by roughly 80 days and saved an average of USD 1.9 million. Every week of dwell time you remove is money and disruption you do not spend.
The initial access vectors have shifted. Phishing overtook stolen credentials as the leading initial attack vector at around 16% of breaches, with supply chain compromise close behind at roughly 15% — and supply chain incidents took the longest to resolve, at around 267 days.
AI is now on both sides of the fight. Roughly one in six breaches involved attackers using AI tools, most commonly for phishing and deepfake impersonation. On the defensive side, the exposure is governance: 20% of breached organisations reported an incident involving unsanctioned "shadow AI", and 97% of organisations that suffered an AI-related incident had no AI access controls in place. Shadow AI added around USD 670,000 to average breach cost.
Regulators have stopped waiting. DORA (Regulation (EU) 2022/2554) has applied directly across the EU since 17 January 2025, and requires initial notification of a major ICT incident within four hours of classification. NIS2 required national transposition by 17 October 2024 and imposes a 24-hour early warning, 72-hour notification and 30-day final report. In the US, public companies must disclose material cyber incidents within four business days. The compliance clock now runs faster than most incident response plans.
The strategic conclusion is consistent across all of it: the organisations that lose the most are not the ones with the fewest tools. They are the ones that detect late, contain slowly, and rehearse never.

Our Cyber Security Services

Each service below is scoped as a discrete engagement with defined deliverables. They can be bought individually or sequenced into a programme.

Cyber Risk Assessment and Threat Modelling

The starting point for most clients. We build an adversary model specific to your organisation — who realistically targets you, with what capability and motive — then map your current controls, architecture and processes against what those adversaries actually do.
Deliverables: threat actor profile, attack surface map, control gap analysis against your applicable framework (NIST CSF 2.0, ISO/IEC 27001:2022, IEC 62443 for OT), prioritised remediation roadmap with cost and effort estimates, board-level summary. Typical duration: 3–6 weeks depending on estate size.

Cyber Security Consulting and Programme Build

Advisory and programme delivery for organisations building or rebuilding a security function. This covers security architecture, policy and doctrine, organisational structure, hiring profiles, tooling selection, and the multi-year roadmap that connects them.
Deliverables: target operating model, security architecture blueprint, doctrine and policy set, phased implementation plan, budget model. Typical structure: fixed-scope project, or embedded advisory on retainer.

Penetration Testing, Red Teaming and Threat-Led Testing

Three different products, frequently confused. Penetration testing finds and proves exploitable vulnerabilities in a defined scope — network, application, API, cloud, wireless, physical access control. Red teaming tests whether your defenders detect and stop a realistic adversary emulating a specific threat actor, with no prior warning to the SOC. Threat-led penetration testing (TLPT) — the TIBER-EU model referenced under DORA Article 26 — combines intelligence-led targeting with a controlled live attack against production systems, and is increasingly a regulatory requirement rather than a choice for EU financial entities.
Deliverables: technical findings with proof of exploitation and CVSS ratings, attack narrative, detection gap analysis, remediation guidance, retest. Typical duration: 2–4 weeks (pentest), 4–10 weeks (red team / TLPT).

Threat Intelligence and Threat Hunting

Collection tasked against your adversaries, not a generic feed. This includes surface, deep and dark web monitoring for your brand, executives, credentials and data; infrastructure and campaign tracking; pre-attack indicator detection; and proactive hunting inside your environment for activity that automated tooling has not flagged.
Deliverables: standing intelligence reporting, indicators pushed to your detection stack, hunt findings, executive threat briefings. Typical structure: monthly or quarterly retainer.

SOC Design, Build and Mentoring

For governments, national cyber units and enterprises standing up in-house capability. We design the SOC — tiering model, staffing, playbooks, detection engineering, escalation and metrics — then run it alongside your team until they can run it without us, and hand it over.
Deliverables: SOC operating model, use case and detection library, playbook set, analyst training programme, maturity assessment at handover. Typical duration: 6–18 months to full independence.

Incident Response and Digital Forensics

When something is already happening. Our IR teams contain the intrusion, stop lateral movement, preserve evidence, restore operations, and reconstruct what the attacker did, how they got in, and what they took. Forensic output is prepared to a standard that holds up with regulators, insurers, boards and — where relevant — courts.
Deliverables: containment and eradication, forensic timeline, root cause analysis, attribution assessment where the evidence supports it, regulatory notification support, post-incident hardening plan. Availability: 24/7. Retained clients get contractual response times; non-retained clients are taken on availability.

Data Protection, Encryption and Secure Communications

Protecting information at rest, in transit and in use — data classification, key management, encryption architecture, secure messaging and voice for leadership, secure enclaves for sensitive workflows, and hardened travel kit for executives moving through high-risk jurisdictions.

OT, ICS and SCADA Security for Critical Infrastructure

Energy, water, aviation, ports, rail, telecoms, manufacturing. OT is not IT: availability outranks confidentiality, patching windows are measured in years, and a wrong move on a live process network has physical consequences. Our approach is passive-first — asset discovery, network visibility, segmentation between IT and OT, protocol-aware monitoring — aligned to IEC 62443, with active testing only in controlled or replica environments.

Cloud, Identity and Supply Chain Security

Secure architecture and posture management across AWS, Azure and Google Cloud; identity as the new perimeter (privileged access, non-human identities and service principals, phishing-resistant MFA); and third-party and supply chain risk assessment — the vector responsible for roughly 15% of breaches and the slowest to resolve.
04

Cyber Security for Government, Defence and National Infrastructure

Government engagements operate under different constraints: classification, sovereignty, procurement rules, and adversaries with the resources of a state.
We support national and defence clients across:

  • National cyber defence architecture — sector coordination, national CERT design, information-sharing frameworks

  • Critical infrastructure protection — energy grids, water systems, aviation, ports, financial market infrastructure, telecoms

  • Defence and military networks — tactical and mission systems, operational communications, defence supply chain

  • Espionage and counter-intelligence support — detection of long-dwell intrusion, insider threat programmes, technical surveillance countermeasures in combination with our physical teams

  • Secure communications for national leadership — protected voice, messaging and travel environments for principals and their staff

  • Capability building — SOC creation, national cyber unit training, doctrine development, exercise design and execution

  • Threat intelligence fusion — integrating technical, human and open-source collection into a single decision-grade picture

Work is delivered under strict confidentiality, with vetted personnel, and structured to fit national security governance and classified environments. We do not publish client names.
05

Enterprise and Corporate Cyber Security

For corporates, the threat is usually one of four things: ransomware and extortion, credential-based intrusion, intellectual property theft, or a supply chain compromise you did not see coming. All four are business continuity problems before they are technical problems.
Our enterprise programme covers network, endpoint, cloud, identity and data security; OT security where the business runs physical processes; supply chain and third-party risk; ransomware readiness including segmentation, backup validation and rehearsed recovery; and board and executive exposure reduction. Where a board needs an independent view, we provide assurance-level assessments that do not depend on the incumbent security vendor's own reporting.
06

Cyber Protection for Executives, Families and Family Offices

Principals and their families are the softest surface in most organisations, and increasingly the primary route in. Attackers do not need to breach the enterprise if they can compromise the CEO's personal email, the family office's payment approvals, or a family member's social media.
We provide digital exposure reduction (data broker removal, footprint audit, breach exposure monitoring), device and account hardening, secure communications, payment fraud and business email compromise controls for family offices, deepfake and impersonation monitoring, and crypto asset security for holders and funds — an area where the digital compromise and the physical threat routinely converge.
07

Where Cyber Meets Physical: The Convergence Advantage

This is the part most cyber firms cannot do, and most protection firms cannot do either.
Serious adversaries do not respect the boundary between digital and physical. Real attack chains look like this:

  • Open-source research on a principal's travel pattern → physical surveillance → targeted phishing timed to the trip

  • Compromised building management or access control system → physical entry → network implant

  • Cloned credentials from a hotel network → data theft → extortion with a physical threat attached

  • Crypto holder identified through on-chain analysis and social media → home address located → physical coercion

Because R&H runs both cyber and physical operations — close protection, secure transportation, residential security, technical surveillance countermeasures, risk management — we can build a single threat picture and a single response. The intelligence collected by the cyber team informs the protection detail. The protection team's observations feed the cyber threat model. Conventional providers leave that seam open. It is where attackers work.
08

Regulatory and Compliance Alignment

We work against the frameworks your regulator, insurer or board actually recognises:
FrameworkApplies toWhat we do
NIST CSF 2.0General enterprise, US-linkedMaturity assessment, gap closure, governance function build-out
ISO/IEC 27001:2022Global enterpriseISMS design, readiness assessment, control implementation
NIS2EU essential and important entitiesRisk management measures, 24h/72h/30-day incident reporting readiness, supply chain security
DORAEU financial entities and their ICT providersICT risk framework, 4-hour incident classification and reporting, Register of Information, TLPT under TIBER-EU

How We Work: Methodology, Engagement Models and Timelines

Phase 1 — Scoping. A confidential call, under NDA if required. We establish what you are protecting, what you are worried about, what has already happened, and what constraints you operate under. No cost.
Phase 2 — Assessment. Threat modelling and control gap analysis. You receive a prioritised roadmap that stands on its own — even if you never engage us again.
Phase 3 — Execution. Remediation, testing, build, or response, depending on what the assessment found. Delivered by named specialists, not rotating junior staff.
Phase 4 — Assurance and handover. Retest, validate, measure. Where we have built capability, we hand it over and mentor your people until they own it.
Engagement models

  • Fixed-scope assessment — defined deliverable, defined fee

  • Project — build, migrate, remediate, test

  • Managed service — we run detection and response for you

  • Retainer — guaranteed incident response availability with contractual response times, plus a standing block of advisory hours

  • Embedded advisory — a senior specialist inside your organisation on a fractional basis

What drives cost: estate size and complexity, number of jurisdictions, OT presence, classification requirements, on-site versus remote delivery, and response-time guarantees. We scope before we quote and we do not quote before we understand the environment. For an indicative proposal, send us your requirement and we will come back with a scoped fee.
Confidentiality. All personnel are vetted. All engagements are covered by NDA. We do not publish client names, sectors or case details without written consent, which is why this page contains no logos and no case studies. That is deliberate.
10

What We Do Not Do

E-E-A-T cuts both ways, and in this industry the exclusions tell you as much as the services.

  • We do not sell offensive cyber tools or intrusion software. Not to private clients, not to anyone.

  • We do not conduct surveillance of individuals on behalf of private parties.

  • We do not "hack back."

  • We do not perform unauthorised access of any kind. Every test we run is contracted, scoped, authorised in writing, and legally bounded.

  • We do not take engagements we cannot deliver to standard. If your requirement is outside our competence or our ethics, we will say so on the first call.

11

Worldwide Deployment and Response Times

Our cyber teams operate remotely by default and deploy physically where the work requires it — classified environments, OT sites, active incidents, government programmes. We support clients across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia, North America, Latin America and Australia, and we work through licensed local partners where local licensing or law requires it.
Remote incident triage: within hours of contact for retained clients. On-site deployment: typically within 24–72 hours, subject to visas, clearances and destination.

FAQ — Israeli Cyber Security Services

What makes Israeli cyber security different from other providers?

The difference is doctrine and operator background, not technology. Israeli practice is threat-led—it models the specific adversary and works backwards to controls. It also assumes the perimeter will be breached, shifting investment toward detection, segmentation and rehearsed response. Our specialists come from elite Israeli military cyber and national intelligence units, where they defended against nation-state actors before entering the private sector.

How much does a cyber risk assessment cost?

Cost depends on estate size, the number of jurisdictions, whether operational technology is included, and whether delivery is remote or on-site. We define the scope before providing a fixed quotation. Send your requirements to info@global-protection.net.

What is an incident response retainer, and do I need one?

An incident response retainer guarantees a contracted response time and a named team when an incident occurs, rather than requiring you to join a queue during a crisis. Because breach costs increase with attacker dwell time, retainers are now standard for many regulated entities and critical infrastructure operators.

Do you provide 24/7 emergency breach response?

Yes. Retained clients receive contractual response times, with remote triage beginning within hours. Non-retained clients are supported subject to availability. For an active incident, contact +972-55-9724475 and clearly state that you require emergency breach response.

Do you work with governments and defence organisations?

Yes. We support sovereign governments, defence forces, national cyber units and law enforcement with SOC creation, doctrine development, critical infrastructure protection, secure leadership communications, threat intelligence fusion and capability building. Services are delivered by vetted personnel under strict confidentiality and can be structured for classified environments.

Can you protect critical infrastructure and OT/SCADA environments?

Yes. We work across energy, water, aviation, ports, rail, telecommunications and industrial manufacturing, aligned with IEC 62443. Our OT approach is passive-first, covering asset discovery, visibility, IT/OT segmentation and protocol-aware monitoring. Active testing is restricted to controlled or replica environments.

Do you perform penetration testing and red teaming?

Yes, but they are different services. Penetration testing identifies and proves exploitable vulnerabilities within a defined scope. Red teaming assesses whether defenders can detect and stop a realistic adversary without prior warning. We also deliver threat-led penetration testing based on the TIBER-EU model referenced under DORA Article 26.

Can you help us comply with NIS2, DORA, GDPR or SEC disclosure rules?

Yes. We build ICT risk-management frameworks, incident-classification procedures and notification processes aligned with the relevant regulatory requirements. We can also align controls with NIST CSF 2.0, ISO/IEC 27001:2022 or IEC 62443, depending on the organisation and operating environment.

Do you offer cyber protection for executives, families and family offices?

Yes. Services include digital-footprint reduction, data-broker removal, device and account hardening, secure communications, deepfake and impersonation monitoring, business email compromise controls, family-office payment protection and crypto-asset security. Where digital threats have a physical dimension, our cyber and executive-protection teams work together.

Can you combine cyber security with physical security?

Yes. This is one of our core differentiators. R&H Global Protection provides close protection, secure transportation, residential security and risk management alongside cyber security services. This allows us to build one threat picture and coordinate one response across both digital and physical environments.

Do you support cloud environments such as AWS, Azure and Google Cloud?

Yes. Services include secure cloud architecture, cloud security posture management, identity and privileged-access controls, non-human identity governance, encryption, key management and cloud-native threat detection.

Can you determine who attacked us?

In many cases, yes. Our digital forensics and threat intelligence specialists reconstruct attacker tooling, infrastructure and tradecraft, then compare the evidence with known threat-actor profiles. Attribution is always delivered with a clearly stated confidence level.

Can you support an organisation with no internal security team?

Yes. We provide fully managed detection and response services, as well as hybrid models in which we operate the security capability while helping the organisation build its own internal team and processes.

How quickly can you deploy on-site?

On-site deployment is typically available within 24–72 hours, subject to visas, security clearances and destination requirements. Remote assessment and incident-response work can begin immediately.

Do you sell offensive cyber tools or spyware?

No. We do not sell or operate offensive intrusion tools, conduct surveillance of individuals for private parties, or perform unauthorised “hack-back” operations. All security testing must be contracted, authorised in writing and conducted within clearly defined legal boundaries.
