We were engaged by the legal team working on behalf of a high profile celebrity client to conduct a cyber audit/digital footprint of what information was accessible about them across the internet and dark web.
The Case:
To ascertain what information was publicly available about the client which might compromise their security or create other risks especially around breaches of privacy, harassment or similar. The cyber audit/digital footprint included identifying:
- Personal information i.e. contact details and other private information (Open, Social, Dark Web)
- Publicly available information that may compromise the client’s security
- Searches to include publicly available images which might be compromising
- Similar searches against any linked individual – Partner, Ex-Partner, Parents, Siblings
Findings:
No compromising images/personal information were found online for the actress.
We recommended the following:
- Ongoing monitoring of social media and news media
- Cyber security physical audit – identifying physical digital vulnerabilities
- Protecting yourself online training
