Corporate cybersecurity programs excel at defending the enterprise perimeter—networks, email systems, and internal applications. But executives, board members, and other high-profile leaders live increasingly public lives that create vulnerabilities outside those walls. Personal email accounts, home networks, connected devices, and public appearances can all be exploited to gain access to corporate or personal assets.
Customer Challenges
1. Expanded Attack Surface
High-profile individuals often have complex digital footprints that include personal devices, home automation systems, connected vehicles, and social media accounts. Attackers know these systems are less protected than corporate environments, making them prime targets.
2. Blurring of Personal and Professional Identity
Executives are publicly associated with their companies. A breach of their personal life—whether through identity theft, a compromised smart device, or a deepfake—can harm both personal and corporate reputations.
3. Legal and Privacy Boundaries
Corporate IT and security teams face legal restrictions in monitoring and managing personal devices or networks, leaving gaps attackers can exploit.
4. Converging Physical and Cyber Threats
Increasingly, online attacks are used to facilitate physical threats, and vice versa. Publicly available personal data can inform targeting, stalking, or social engineering.
5. Speed and Sophistication of Attacks
Advances in AI have dramatically accelerated how quickly attackers can collect information, create convincing forgeries, and execute multi-vector campaigns.
