Our cybercrime services
Legal advice for cybercrime and digital investigations.
We advise companies, senior leaders and private individuals on the full lifecycle of cybercrime matters – from urgent incident response and criminal defence to regulatory engagement, recovery actions and reputation management.
Cyberfraud is a cybercrime consisting of financially motivated crime using digital means.
Usually, the intent is to deceive victims, both individuals and businesses, into giving up money or sensitive data, involving tactics like:
- Phishing
- Malware
- Ransomware
- Identity theft including steeling passwords or financial details
Our advice is:
- Use caution with emails, don't click on links or open attachments unless you are sure of authenticity
- Use strong passwords and MFA
- Keep software up to date
- Report suspicious activity immediately to relevant authorities like reportfraud.police.uk
- Ensure your business has a robust cyber security policy in place.
We conduct cyber audits to ensure you can stay safe from cyberfraud. Get in touch to organise an audit.
