Public By Role. Easy To Imitate.
Executive and VIP protection means watching for threats aimed at your senior people. That covers fake profiles, impersonation, faked voice or video and personal data that has been exposed. Early notice, with evidence kept, lets your executive protection team respond.
- 01 Leaders Are Easy To Copy A public photo and a job title are enough to build a fake profile. Staff and partners may trust it.
- 02 Voice And Video Can Be Faked Synthetic audio and video are used to make a request from a leader look real, usually to move money or get access.
- 03 Personal Details Travel Phone numbers, home addresses and account logins of leaders turn up in leaked data and are used to reach them or their families.
- 04 No Single Owner Security, communications and physical protection each see a piece. Without one view, impersonation is found late.
