Owing to their status – and very often fame – high-net-worth individuals and their families are tempting targets for cyber-criminals. Often these individuals live in the public eye, and as more information is posted and stored online, technology vulnerabilities combined with scams, targeted attacks, and data breaches, all pose a substantial threat to the high net-worth individual.
There have been numerous examples of high profile individuals being victim to cyber attacks. In 2014 there was the “Celeb Gate” leak of intimate photographs of famous people, supposedly stored securely on iCloud. In 2017 Emma Watson suffered a cyber-attack, and in the same year David Beckham had over 18 million emails stolen.
Cybercriminals conduct extensive research to gather valuable information on high-net-worth individuals. A profile is created, just as it could be against anyone, but the major difference is the value of the data. You are a high-net-worth individual, so it makes you an obvious target.
What can be obtained from a poorly protected high-net-worth individual could be sold to other criminals, possibly on the dark web for lucrative sums, or used for corporate espionage (new product details, purchase, sale, or merger information, and so on) to gain stock market leverage. Or it may simply be to conduct a straightforward theft of funds, which may well be significant.
It doesn’t matter what the motive is for a cyber-attack. It doesn’t matter how it is conducted, or what data is involved. In order to protect your property, wealth and loved ones from the effects and repercussions of cyber crime a big picture approach needs to be taken, rather than simply spending a fortune on products with fancy names, glossy labels and big price tags.
It requires a holistic approach to how your life and work happens, and who can have an impact on your cyber security. So whilst Labyrinth are able to deliver best in class technology solutions, we will also work with you to develop a culture of awareness regarding your activities and how they can pose a threat to your cyber security.

Maintaining good IT can be time consuming, resource intensive and expensive, especially when you have a business to run. The evolving nature of IT means that businesses need to ensure their IT staff are up to date with the latest technologies and this usually involves training, which comes at a cost. In addition, staff turnover means a need to recruit, which is a similar drain on your precious resources. By outsourcing your IT support, you get a guaranteed team of experienced, skilled and professional staff with a wealth of knowledge to manage your IT. And because training, recruitment and so on for that team is the purview of the IT support firm, your costs are reduced.
A good IT support company helps your organisation focus on its core business, reducing the need to divert resources to IT issues. By providing a service that is always at least equal to an internal IT department, but at significant cost benefit, it helps your business to drive revenue, reduce costs, reduce risk and increase productivity. An IT Support company provides outsourced IT Support services to organisations across all industries, locations and sizes. A good IT Support partner will offer proactive support, technology advice and consultation, project management and 3rd party IT supplier management.
External IT support is a cost effective solution for businesses who would like the experience of their own IT department, without the cost of hiring one. This is particularly popular with SME’s as the monthly cost is often based on the number of users or computers, and this offers the flexibility to scale the service as your business grows.
The reality of today’s inter-connected world is that digital technology is used to drive virtually every aspect of a business. Whether it is product development, project planning, accounting and finance, communications or HR, there is usually a keyboard being tapped or a mouse being clicked to facilitate a process. And when that technology fails, or even slows down, your business is seriously affected. So Labyrinth Technology aims to provide business IT support that delivers fast response times, reduced system downtime, assurance that your business is using the best equipment and software, reduced cost, and time to focus on your core business goals and objectives.
