WHAT WE DO
Acute Assistance Following a Digital Attack
A digital attack on an individual or a company is the most challenging client case. Be it a digital bullying attack, data theft or electronically-assisted fraud, with a threatened or already carried out attack, it is important to react quickly, effectively and decisively.
The Virtual Bodyguard stands by its client during or after an acute attack at short notice with the aim of averting of at least minimizing any kind of damage. This includes immediate personal support and the introduction of first emergency measures as well as the subsequent communicative, legal, technical and, if necessary, psychological support by our partners. In addition to any damage control, these activities shall restore a client’s data security, privacy and reputation.
Prevention: Minimization of Data Security, Privacy and Reputation Risks
Whether you are active on your own behalf or on behalf of your employer, in today’s world, we use digital media increasingly and, in doing so, regularly expose ourselves in the public arena. The associated data security, privacy and reputational risks are considerable – for the individual and for the company. It is important to minimize these risks through effective behavioral rules.
The Virtual Bodyguard helps individuals and businesses to analyze their specific risk situation, to identify persons exposed in this context and to train them in seminars against threats from digital mishaps and direct attack on their privacy and reputation – if necessary, combined with individual coaching and additional helpful measures. The Virtual Bodyguard highlights potentials for optimization and ensures the sustainability of achievements made. Guidelines and checklists help address specific situations decisively.
Personal presentation in the digital world
The image of individuals and businesses in the internet is often unbalanced and incomplete, if one does not actively do something about it. Frequently, the information provided is not (or not anymore) true and may leave a false impression. This can seriously affect the achievement of private and professional goals. It must therefore be our aim to maintain an authentic, fair and balanced presence in the digital world. This presence is a prerequisite for building credibility and for effective communication. Without it, you cannot gain support for yourself and your ideas. Together with the client, the Virtual Bodyguard develops an authentic, tailor-made online presence, consisting of linked and search engine optimized user profiles, which are equipped with effective key messages and images. Following the establishment of the online presence, it can be maintained and continuously monitored by the Virtual Bodyguard upon request.
Secure digital infrastructure
Today, we entertain a series of digital connections to the outside world – not only at work but also in our own home. We help our clients to understand and minimize the risks to their privacy and their security at the workplace, at home and on travel. Our range of services include the identification of a client’s needs, a joint analysis of existing communication and other digital needs. We furthermore ensure the implementation of appropriate technical infrastructure, including a training of the persons concerned.
