Incident Response & Forensics

When a security incident involves the browser, SOC teams need the full story, not just an alert. Surface Security captures complete session context: page loads, DOM snapshots, redirect chains, credential interactions, and user behavior. Export everything to your SIEM in one click for seamless investigation workflows.

The Problem

Alerts tell you something happened. Not what happened.

Traditional security tools generate alerts but lack the browser-level context needed for effective investigation. A phishing alert without the redirect chain is incomplete. A data exfiltration flag without session context is unactionable. SOC teams spend hours reconstructing timelines from fragmented logs across multiple tools, slowing response times and increasing dwell time.

No browser session context available when investigating alerts

Redirect chains and page content are lost by the time SOC investigates

Reconstructing user activity timelines requires correlating multiple tool logs

Critical investigation context lives in the browser where no tool has visibility

The Solution

Complete session reconstruction for every incident

Surface captures forensic-grade browser session data continuously. When an incident occurs, investigators get full session timelines, DOM snapshots, redirect chains, network requests, and user interaction logs, all correlated and exportable to your existing SIEM/SOAR workflows.

Session Reconstruction

Replay complete browser sessions with DOM snapshots, page transitions, and user interaction timelines.

Redirect Chain Analysis

Trace full redirect paths from initial click to final destination, including intermediate hops and JavaScript redirects.

SIEM/SOAR Integration

One-click export to Splunk, Microsoft Sentinel, XSOAR, and other platforms with full context preservation.

Tamper-Evident Audit Logs

Append-only event logs stored on-premises with integrity verification for compliance, legal hold, and chain-of-custody requirements.
