When an attacker gets into a Los Angeles company’s email, files or servers, the first hours decide how much it costs. Our incident response work is delivered remotely by U.S.-based engineers, so containment can start as soon as we have admin access, without waiting on a drive across Greater Los Angeles. Most of the cases we handle are compromised Microsoft 365 / Office 365 or Google Workspace accounts, business email compromise and ransomware, for organizations in entertainment, post-production & media, aerospace, space & defense suppliers, ports, logistics & wholesale trade, healthcare & medical practices and law, business management & financial services. California’s breach notification statute, Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.82, sets the clock once personal information is exposed. We cover Downtown Los Angeles, Century City, Santa Monica, Culver City, Burbank and Glendale and the rest of the Greater Los Angeles area.

What We Offer

Comprehensive cybersecurity incident response tailored for Los Angeles businesses

Microsoft 365 / Office 365 Compromise

Hidden inbox rules, forwarding, OAuth app grants, attacker MFA methods and live sessions found and removed across the tenant.

Google Workspace Compromise

Gmail filters and forwarding, third-party app grants, outside Drive sharing and admin changes cleaned up, audit logs preserved.

Business Email Compromise

Bank recall support, scoping of what the attacker read and sent, and evidence for IC3 and your insurer.

Ransomware Containment

Isolate without destroying evidence, find the entry point, verify backups before restoring, rebuild clean.

Forensic Scoping

Audit, sign-in and endpoint logs preserved early to answer what data was accessed and whose.

Hardening After the Incident

Phishing-resistant MFA, conditional access and alerting in place before the case closes.

Industries We Serve

Specialized expertise for Greater Los Angeles's key industries.

Entertainment, Post-Production & Media

For media and production teams, an incident often means leaked content or redirected payments to crew and vendors. We contain the accounts, find what was shared or downloaded, and help you act quickly on payments.

Aerospace, Space & Defense Suppliers

Defense contractors carry a reporting clock most businesses do not: DFARS 252.204-7012 requires cyber incidents affecting covered defense information to be reported to the DoD within 72 hours of discovery, with images preserved for 90 days. We run containment with that clock and the evidence requirements in mind.

Ports, Logistics & Wholesale Trade

Freight and distribution firms see a lot of payment-redirection fraud, where an attacker inside a mailbox changes remittance details on a real invoice thread. We find the compromised account, the rules hiding the replies and the customers who were contacted, and help you get ahead of it with those customers.

Healthcare & Medical Practices

A compromised mailbox at a practice is rarely just an email problem, because referral letters, lab results and insurance forms sit in it. We scope exactly which messages the attacker could read so your privacy officer can run the HIPAA breach risk assessment on facts instead of assumptions.

Law, Business Management & Financial Services

Financial firms are a favorite target for business email compromise because a single altered wire instruction pays well. We move fast on bank recall, find every forwarding rule and OAuth grant the attacker planted, and preserve the evidence your regulator or carrier will ask for. Under the FTC Safeguards Rule, covered firms must also report qualifying incidents to the FTC.

Los Angeles FAQ

Common questions about cybersecurity incident response in Los Angeles, CA.

Someone is in our Microsoft 365 / Office 365 mailbox. What should a Los Angeles business do first?

+
Call us, and do not delete the account. A password reset alone does not remove inbox rules, forwarding, OAuth app grants, an extra MFA method the attacker registered, or live session tokens. We revoke sessions, remove each of those, export the audit logs before they age out, and check which other accounts and contacts the attacker reached.

Do you handle Google Workspace incidents for Los Angeles companies?

+
Yes. Google Workspace takeovers follow the same pattern with different mechanics: Gmail filters and forwarding addresses, third-party app grants, Drive files shared outside the domain and admin changes. We contain, clean up and preserve the admin and Drive audit logs.

What does California law require after a data breach?

+
California’s breach notification law is Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.82. Affected individuals must be notified within 30 calendar days of discovering or being notified of the breach (SB 446, effective Jan 1, 2026); delay allowed for law enforcement or to determine scope. Regulator notice: Attorney General if 500+ California residents: submit a sample copy of the notice within 15 calendar days of notifying residents, via the AG's online breach submission form. Also worth knowing: Notice must use specific headings and plain-language format; covers biometric, health, and genetic data; no risk-of-harm exception. Federal and industry rules, such as HIPAA, can add their own deadlines. We provide the technical scoping of what was accessed and whose data it was; whether and when to notify is a decision to make with your attorney.

Can you respond without being on site in Los Angeles?

+
Yes. Cloud tenant incidents are handled entirely remotely, and most endpoint containment is too. Where a machine needs hands-on work, we coordinate it locally as part of the response so nobody on your team is managing an unknown contractor.

Will you work with our cyber insurance carrier?

+
Yes. If you have a policy, call the carrier’s claims hotline first, since many policies require approved vendors. We work alongside the breach coach and forensic firm they assign, or run containment and cleanup directly when no carrier is involved.

Is emergency response available after hours?

+
Yes, for active incidents such as ransomware, an ongoing account takeover or a wire fraud in progress. Our automated monitoring runs 24/7 for managed clients; non-emergency follow-up happens during business hours.
