The Practice
What We Do
Privilege Security is a private cybersecurity practice serving high-net-worth individuals and their families. We protect what corporate security teams never see — personal accounts, devices, homes, estates and the people closest to you. The work is quiet, personal, and held to the engineering standard our founder carried through security engagements for federal agencies.
The Threat Reality
Why Privilege Security
Wealth concentrates risk. High-net-worth individuals are targeted by unscrupulous individuals, political enemies, competitors and criminal dragnets — through online extortion, cyber-crime, social engineering, intellectual property theft and account takeover. The tools are inexpensive, the distance is irrelevant, and the targeting is patient.
Institutions answer this with security departments. Most wealthy families answer it with nothing at all.
“Wealthy individuals are often viewed as private clients rather than the large corporates and quasi-institutions that they are.”
