Protection around the person and their trusted circle
We map the accounts, devices and relationships that matter to your privacy and continuity. The review can include personal email, cloud storage, recovery methods and access held by assistants or external providers. We separate personal and business responsibilities and agree who may receive information. You can appoint a trusted representative to coordinate without establishing a family office.
Impersonation and sensitive instructions
A convincing message, voice or profile can be used to exploit trusted relationships. We help establish independent verification of payment instructions and sensitive requests, with practical arrangements for travel and delegated administration. Public digital exposure and impersonation can be reviewed alongside the accounts that others rely on to recognise you. Findings are prioritised by relevance and the action available.
A confidential response to a specific concern
When information appears to have leaked or an account may be compromised, we define the question, evidence sources and reporting recipients before examination. Work may combine email analysis, device forensics and public-source research. We coordinate technical findings with your authorised advisers and explain uncertainty. Follow-up protection focuses on the relevant access paths and recovery arrangements.
A private security review with a defined scope
Start with the concern that matters to you: loss of access, unwanted disclosure, impersonation, a suspicious device or the security of a major transaction. An assessment can cover named email and cloud accounts, phones and computers, account recovery and access held by assistants. You do not need to place all family members or every business interest in scope to address a specific exposure.
Appoint one authorised contact and agree who receives the findings. Access to a spouse’s, employee’s or adviser’s account requires the appropriate authority; wealth, ownership of a device or a shared household does not resolve every access question. We define those boundaries before technical examination and coordinate with your professional advisers where needed.
- Understand
The concern, relevant people and authorised sources.

Account, device, recovery and impersonation exposure.
- Strengthen
Prioritised changes that fit everyday use.
- Verify
Recovery, delegated access and escalation in practice.
Recovery and travel without unnecessary friction
The goal is to preserve control when a device is lost or a trusted person is unavailable. Review recovery email addresses, phone-number dependencies, backup access methods and who can change them. Keep emergency access protected and test the agreed recovery route without exposing passwords or recovery codes to a broad group. Authentication should fit the account and risk; the most convenient fallback can become the weakest route.
Before sensitive travel, define the necessary data and accounts, update the devices in scope, confirm recovery arrangements and establish a trusted contact route. If a device is lost or may have been accessed, coordinate containment and any evidence needs before making irreversible changes. A travel plan should reflect the itinerary, device ownership and relevant organisational requirements, rather than promise that one setting makes every journey safe.
A concise brief and an actionable protection plan
An agreed engagement can deliver a private exposure summary, an account and recovery map, a prioritised set of changes and a simple response card with authorised contacts. Technical detail can be provided separately to your IT provider or adviser. Findings should explain what was checked, what remains outside scope and how completed improvements will be verified.
If the concern is already an incident, assessment and investigation may need to proceed as distinct workstreams. Investigation establishes what the available evidence supports; protective changes reduce continuing exposure. Agree the order with the case lead so urgent containment is not delayed and relevant evidence is not unnecessarily lost. Begin with a short description through the contact form, then arrange a secure channel for sensitive material.
What an engagement can deliver
- Confidential personal digital exposure review
- Account, device and delegation protection plan
- Verification procedures for sensitive instructions
- Defined investigation and restricted reporting where needed
Common questions
Do I need a family office or a company?
No. We can work directly with you or through an authorised assistant, lawyer or other trusted representative.
Can an engagement begin with one urgent concern?
Yes. We can scope a particular account, device or event before considering a broader protection programme. Contact the team to establish availability and next steps.
