Threats Targeting Triangle Businesses
These are the most common cybercrime categories we defend against every day.
Ransomware
Attackers encrypt your data and demand payment. Modern double-extortion tactics also steal data before encrypting, threatening public exposure.
Business Email Compromise
Compromised or spoofed executive email accounts trick employees into wire transfers, data sharing, or payment routing changes.
Phishing and Social Engineering
Over 90% of cyberattacks begin with a phishing email. Spear phishing and whaling target specific executives with highly convincing messages.
Data Breaches
Stolen customer records, employee data, and intellectual property trigger breach notifications, regulatory penalties, and lawsuits.
Credential Theft
Stolen passwords from phishing and credential stuffing are involved in nearly half of all data breaches, enabling silent access to systems.
Wire Fraud
Attackers intercept real estate closings, vendor payments, and large transactions through compromised email accounts. Funds are nearly impossible to recover.
From Vulnerable to Protected
Reactive Security
Discovering breaches weeks or months after initial compromise when damage is already done.
No Incident Plan
Scrambling to respond to attacks without a tested playbook, losing critical evidence and time.
Basic Antivirus Only
Relying on outdated signature-based tools that miss modern fileless and AI-powered attacks.
24/7 Threat Detection
AI-powered monitoring detects and contains threats in real time before damage spreads.
Tested Response Plan
NIST-aligned incident response with forensic evidence preservation and rapid containment.
Defense in Depth
Layered security with EDR, email security, MFA, and network segmentation blocking attacks at every stage.

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of cybercrime target small businesses?
Ransomware, business email compromise, phishing, and credential theft are the most common. Small businesses are attractive targets because they often lack dedicated security teams and mature defenses.
How quickly can you respond to a cyber incident?
Our incident response team is available 24/7. We begin containment immediately upon detection, following a structured NIST-aligned methodology to preserve evidence and minimize damage.
What is the average cost of a cyberattack?
IBM reports the average data breach costs $4.45 million. For small businesses, recovery costs including downtime, legal fees, and reputational damage can be existential.
How do you prevent ransomware attacks?
We layer endpoint detection, email security, network segmentation, access controls, and tested backup procedures. Our 24/7 monitoring detects ransomware deployment attempts before encryption begins.
Do you provide digital forensics services?
Yes. Craig Petronella is a licensed digital forensic examiner. We investigate cybercrime incidents, preserve evidence for legal proceedings, and provide expert analysis. Learn about our forensics services.
What compliance frameworks do you support?
We support HIPAA, CMMC, NIST CSF, SOC 2, PCI DSS, and more. Compliance and cybercrime defense work together to protect your business from both attackers and regulatory penalties.
