As leaders in the physical security and Digital Executive Protection spaces, BlackCloak and PwC are joining forces to address growing security risks facing executives, high-profile individuals, and their families on a daily basis.

BlackCloak, the pioneer in Digital Executive Protection and leader in luxury cybersecurity for executives, board members, ultra/high-net worth individuals and their families has joined forces with PwC to launch a comprehensive security offering.

“Over the past decade, nation-states and cybercriminals have shifted their attention from the well defended walls of corporate environments and investment banks to softer targets that are easier to penetrate,” said Dr. Chris Pierson, CEO and Founder of BlackCloak.

Threat actors are rapidly turning their attention to the individual, taking advantage of both physical and cybersecurity weaknesses to exploit victims. The stakes have never been higher.

“Individuals, their security teams, and their institutions have never had access to an integrated approach that addresses the comprehensive risk facing them before BlackCloak and PwC joined forces on this problem set,” said Dr. Pierson. “PwC’s team of experts, with decades of experience in the FBI, U.S. Secret Service, U.S. Military, and in private-sector crisis management and incident response is unparalleled in the industry. Their focus on pragmatic, results driven solutions makes them the perfect collaborators for our team here at BlackCloak.”

With 51% of U.S. security practitioners reporting attacks targeting executives’ personal lives, and a growing number of cyberattacks converging with physical attacks, the risks to executives and their families are increasing. PwC and BlackCloak’s holistic approach enables CSO’s and CISO’s to have peace of mind and confidence that they have the support of a world class team.

“As our clients and their peers contend with stale and inadequate consumer solutions to the problems they and their executives uniquely face, leveraging a comprehensive solution and technology platform, purpose built for this market is more important than ever,” said Ingrid Gliottone, BlackCloak’s Chief Experience Officer. “With the growing convergence of physical and cybersecurity risks that we’re seeing in the market, especially as it relates to corporate executives, their boards, and their families, this innovative product offering from BlackCloak and PwC is more critical than ever. The home environment is the new attack surface for security risks overall and the comprehensive solution that we’ve put together with BlackCloak is there to address and resolve these challenges.”

BlackCloak’s industry-defining approach to Digital Executive Protection continues to set the standard for the personal cybersecurity industry. The company’s bespoke solution addresses the shortcomings of outdated, consumer-grade options by delivering an enterprise-grade platform that provides the most robust personal protection available for high-profile individuals at risk of sophisticated attacks.
