Broward County real estate closings and legal settlements are common targets for spoofed wire instructions. We put layered protection in place for Fort Lauderdale businesses as part of full managed IT.
Florida rules that apply
Florida’s Information Protection Act sets breach notification duties for businesses that hold personal information of Floridians.
Layered protection
We combine endpoint protection, multi-factor authentication, mail filtering, access controls and backups so one failure is not a disaster.
Protecting law firms in Fort Lauderdale
Lawyers have an ethical duty to protect client information.
Training your staff
Staff learn to spot phishing, fake login pages and payment fraud through short lessons and practice emails.
Monitoring for warning signs
We watch for suspicious sign-ins, new mailbox forwarding rules, unexpected admin changes and unusual email activity across your Fort Lauderdale accounts. During office hours an engineer reviews alerts and acts: locking an account, resetting credentials or isolating a device.
Backups that survive ransomware
Backups are kept separate from your network and protected from deletion, then tested on a schedule, so ransomware cannot take your data and your recovery copy together. See backup and disaster recovery.
Cyber insurance
Insurers now ask about MFA, endpoint protection, backups and training before they quote. We help Fort Lauderdale clients put those controls in place and answer the questionnaire accurately. Read our guide to cyber insurance requirements.
Marine businesses and big wires
Yacht brokers, boat dealers and marine service companies around the New River and Port Everglades move large deposits and sale proceeds by wire, often with buyers abroad. That makes their email a prime target. We protect mailboxes with multifactor sign-in, flag lookalike domains and new forwarding rules and help staff confirm every change in wiring details by phone.
