Our primary goal is to anticipate the activities of the malicious hacker community before-the fact and prevent them from compromising business environments that are costly and complex often costing millions of dollars, destroying brand, and weakening morale and culture.

Given that after-the-fact “gap” assessment is the norm in resolving security breaches, there are numerous individuals in the cyber security arena who are capable of recommending a multitude of after-the-fact “gap” fixes — these are the “Consultants.”  L&F Staff do not consider themselves as “Consultants,” but rather as individuals capable of advising clients on what the malicious hacker community is likely to do next, before-the-fact.  At L&F, there is no middle-man: our clients have direct access to the experts.  So what we know — you know.

As you might imagine, this approach has it limitations as the involved parties, L&F’s staff, need a significant amount of experience in both the legal and technical arenas concerning the aspects of hacking techniques and reverse malware engineering.  L&F’s staff bring these skill sets to the table, assisting our clients with detailed briefing on the significance of reports provided by their own IT staff and legal counsel.  In essence, L&F’s staff excel in translating the legal and technical parameters of a on-going/pending breach/compromise to Senior Management, a form of hand-holding if you will, so that they are capable of making real-time decisions as required.

To date, Law and Forensics staff have been very successful in applying their before-the-fact mitigation approach to cases involving Incident Response, Leak Investigations, Financial Fraud, Intellectual Property Theft, Employee Theft and Embezzlement and Misuse of Company Property. Lastly, L&F staff have developed instructor led training to help ensure a company’s legal and technical stakeholders stay current on relevant developments and always have a before-the-fact analysis perspective. When looking at your options, preventing the devastating effects of a breach has increasingly become not only the intelligent but necessary choice as the regulations and scrutiny of companies increase. L&F has developed and delivered courses for organizations such as the FBI, the Department of Defense, the Department of Justice, and several top law firms.
