SOC 2 Aligned
Responsive Support
20+ Years Experience

When an attacker gets into a New Orleans 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 New Orleans. Most of the cases we handle are compromised Microsoft 365 / Office 365 or Google Workspace accounts, business email compromise and ransomware, for organizations in maritime, port & river logistics, offshore energy, engineering & oilfield services, healthcare & medical practices and aerospace contractors, law firms & professional services. Louisiana’s breach notification statute, La. Rev. Stat. § 51:3074; La. Admin. Code tit. 16, pt. III, § 701, sets the clock once personal information is exposed. We cover Central Business District, Warehouse District, French Quarter, Uptown, Mid-City and Metairie and the rest of the Greater New Orleans area.

What We Offer

Comprehensive cybersecurity incident response tailored for New Orleans 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 New Orleans's key industries.

Maritime, Port & River Logistics

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.

Offshore Energy, Engineering & Oilfield Services

In industrial environments, containment cannot mean pulling every plug. We isolate the business network from the control network first, confirm whether the attacker reached OT systems, and work with your operations team so safety and production decisions stay with the people who own them.

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.

Aerospace Contractors, Law Firms & Professional Services

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.

New Orleans FAQ

Common questions about cybersecurity incident response in New Orleans, LA.

Someone is in our Microsoft 365 / Office 365 mailbox. What should a New Orleans 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 New Orleans 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 Louisiana law require after a data breach?

+
Louisiana’s breach notification law is La. Rev. Stat. § 51:3074; La. Admin. Code tit. 16, pt. III, § 701. Affected individuals must be notified without unreasonable delay, no later than 60 days after discovering the breach; if notice is delayed, the AG must get the reasons in writing. Regulator notice: Attorney General (Consumer Protection Section): written notice, including names of affected Louisiana residents, received within 10 days of notifying residents; no minimum count. Also worth knowing: Risk-of-harm exception requires a written determination kept for 5 years; covers biometric data and passport numbers. 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 New Orleans?

+
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.
