Cybersecurity Advisory for Family Offices
Cybersecurity advisory for family offices, principals and executive travellers: exposure review, account hardening and travel-related cyber risk checks.
The challenge
The cyber threat to a family office or high-profile principal is rarely a single sophisticated attack. It is far more often a leaked password from an old breach, a poorly configured device, an assistant's inbox, a family member's social media account exposing travel patterns, or a domestic staff member with access they should not have. These risks compound silently and are usually invisible until they materialise.
Our approach
We work to a structured cybersecurity advisory review for family offices and principals: what is public about the principal and immediate circle, where credentials have appeared in known breach corpora, how devices and accounts are configured, and what the practical travel-related attack surface looks like. The output is a plain-English report with prioritised remediation and, where requested, supervised hands-on hardening delivered directly.

FAQ
Common questions.
- Do I need to give you my passwords?
- No, and we will not ask. The review is performed without privileged access to your accounts — we look at what an external party can see, then advise on what to change. Hands-on remediation, if requested, is performed under your supervision using your own credentials.
- How is sensitive data handled?
- Findings are delivered through an encrypted channel and held only for the duration of the engagement, then deleted on request or by default after 90 days. We can work entirely under NDA before any information is exchanged.
- Will this cover my family?
- Yes — for many principals, the highest-risk exposure is through family members. With consent, we extend the review to spouse, children, and household staff. Children's accounts are handled with particular care and parental sign-off on every step.
- Do you provide incident response if something happens?
- Yes. Existing clients have priority access to incident response under retainer. We will also take on new-client incidents on a best-effort basis, but established relationships are served first.
- Is this a substitute for our corporate IT security team?
- No. We work at the layer of the individual principal and household — the layer that corporate IT typically cannot cover. We coordinate with corporate IT where the principal's work and personal infrastructure overlap.
