Digital Footprint Sanitization & Personal Cyber Defense

The defensive counterpart to our investigations practice. We spend our days finding people through public data, breach archives, and OSINT corpora — which means we know exactly what's exposing you. This service reverses that: 150+ data-broker takedowns, breach remediation, search-result suppression, social-profile lockdown, identity-layer setup, personal-device and home-network hardening, wire-fraud defense for family offices, and continuous monitoring so the next person who tries to dox, stalk, pretext, or wire-fraud you hits a wall. Built for executives, founders, public figures, HNWI, and the families and staff around them.

Engagement scope
NW-FPS-01
Data broker mass opt-out

Submitted, tracked, and verified removals across 150+ people-search sites (Spokeo, BeenVerified, WhitePages, MyLife, RocketReach, FastPeopleSearch, Radaris, Intelius, and the long tail). Re-submission on every reappearance. Quarterly re-sweep.

Executives // public figures // DV survivors // witnesses
NW-FPS-02
Breach exposure audit & remediation

Full audit against the same breach corpus our investigations team uses (~3M dev emails + commercial breach archives). Every credential exposure surfaced, prioritized, and a forced-rotation plan delivered. Optional ongoing breach-watch with same-day alerts.

Targeted individuals // post-incident response
NW-FPS-03
Search result suppression

Google "remove personal info" requests for doxxing, harassment, and stalking-related results. GDPR / CCPA / PIPEDA right-to-be-forgotten filings where jurisdiction allows. Forum and old social-media comment hygiene where the host platform cooperates.

Journalists // public-facing professionals // litigants
NW-FPS-04
Social profile lockdown

Privacy-by-default audit and reconfiguration of LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, X, Reddit, GitHub, and the dozen other surfaces an OSINT investigator pivots through. Photo metadata stripping, location-history scrubbing, friend-list visibility review.

Anyone with a public-facing role
NW-FPS-05
Identity-layer setup

Email aliases (per-vendor address per service), masked phone numbers, masked credit cards, virtual mailing addresses, domain WHOIS redaction. Architectural fixes so future exposure is bounded by design, not discovered after the fact.

Long-term defensive posture
NW-FPS-06
Continuous monitoring & re-sweep

Quarterly automated re-scan against all 150+ broker sites, plus alerts when a new breach surfaces your credentials or a new data broker appears. Removal action is included on detection, not just notification.

Recurring engagement // executive protection retainers
NW-FPS-07
Personal device & home network hardening

Laptop, phone, and home-network audit and lockdown. EDR deployment, password manager rollout, hardware MFA keys, encrypted backup, home WiFi segmentation, IoT inventory and scrub. Same controls a Fortune 500 deploys for execs, scaled to a household.

Executives // founders // HNWI // family principals
NW-FPS-08
Family office & wire fraud defense

Business email compromise (BEC) is the #1 financial threat to family offices. We harden domain authentication (SPF / DKIM / DMARC enforcement), implement out-of-band wire verification, run social-engineering simulations against staff, and build incident playbooks before a $500K wire goes wrong.

Family offices // private wealth // CFO orgs
NW-FPS-09
Travel & family OPSEC

Executive travel briefings (jurisdictional cyber risk, hostile-network avoidance, lost-device protocols), spouse and dependent privacy posture, social media audits for adult children, and minor-child digital footprint protection. Quiet, privacy-respecting, no surveillance.

Frequent travelers // public figures // protective parents
NW-FPS-10
Cyber retainer for principals

Always-on private-line for the principal and their inner circle: suspicious email triage, "is this real?" phone calls, real-time wire verification, post-incident response, and quarterly executive briefings on emerging threats relevant to the principal's industry, location, and public profile.

12-month retainer // monthly cap, on-call always

We don't sell single-shot opt-outs that re-list within 90 days, and we don't sell off-the-shelf "executive cyber" packages. Initial sweep + 12 months of monitored maintenance is the minimum engagement because that's what actually moves the needle. Same OSINT stack we use to find people, run in reverse to keep them found-resistant -- combined with the personal-cybersecurity practice that protects the principal once their public surface is contained.
