Stratafort Cyber — A Division of Stratafort

Your clients trust you with everything.
We make sure it stays that way.

Stratafort Cyber is a specialist security practice for law firms, healthcare providers and professional organisations whose reputations rest on confidentiality. We find what is exposed, close it quietly, and stand watch — with the discretion your clients already expect of you.

The Stakes

Confidentiality is the product.
A breach is the end of it.

For a professional practice, a data breach is not an IT incident — it is a breach of privilege, of patient trust, of fiduciary duty. The numbers below are why the firms we protect treat security as a board matter, not a back-office one.

Who We Protect

Built for custodians of other people's secrets.

We serve organisations across legal, healthcare, financial, logistics, technology, security and professional services — anywhere client data is not an asset on a spreadsheet but the entire basis of the relationship. If your clients would leave the moment their information leaked, you are who we exist for.

Sector · 01

Law Firms & Legal Practices

Privileged correspondence, matter files, trust account instructions and client identities — the crown jewels of every practice, and a standing target for interception and impersonation.

Primary exposure: privileged correspondence
Sector · 02

Healthcare Providers

Health information is classified as special personal information under POPIA and demands a higher standard of care. Practices, clinics and specialists carry patient records that can never be un-leaked.

Primary exposure: patient records
Sector · 03

Accounting, Tax & Audit

Financial statements, payroll data, SARS credentials and director identities concentrated in one inbox make accounting firms one of the most impersonated sectors in the country.

Primary exposure: financial & identity data
Sector · 04

Financial & Fiduciary Services

Wealth managers, brokerages, trustees and administrators hold mandates and movement instructions where a single spoofed email can redirect a client's life savings.

Primary exposure: payment redirection
Sector · 05

Logistics & Supply Chain

Freight, warehousing and distribution run on payment instructions, customs documentation and customer manifests — and third-party supply-chain compromise is now the single most common way in.

Primary exposure: payment & consignment data
Sector · 06

Technology & Software

Source code, production credentials and customer environments concentrated in a handful of accounts. A single compromised developer login can reach every client you serve.

Primary exposure: code & production access
Sector · 07

Security & Risk Firms

Guarding, monitoring and risk consultancies hold site plans, rosters and client vulnerability assessments — documents that describe exactly how to defeat the protection you were hired to provide.

Primary exposure: client security intelligence
Sector · 08

E-Commerce & Client-Data Retail

Customer accounts, order histories and stored payment references — retail platforms accumulate exactly the data credential-stuffing operations are built to harvest.

Primary exposure: customer credentials
Sector · 06

Logistics & Supply Chain

Freight schedules, customs documentation, client manifests and payment instructions — and a supply chain in which a compromise at one operator becomes everyone's incident.

Primary exposure: third-party compromise
Sector · 07

Security & Risk Services

Guarding, monitoring and investigation firms hold site plans, alarm configurations, patrol schedules and client vulnerabilities. Few datasets are more dangerous in the wrong hands.

Primary exposure: client site intelligence
Sector · 08

Technology & Software

Source code, production credentials and customer databases in one estate — and clients who increasingly audit your security before they will sign with you at all.

Primary exposure: code & customer data
Sector · 09

Professional & Business Services

Architects, engineers, consultancies, recruiters — any firm whose files describe someone else's business. If discretion is in your engagement letter, it should be in your infrastructure.

Primary exposure: client confidential files
The Stratafort Doctrine

One discipline, four phases.
In this order, always.

Security theatre starts with products. Security starts with evidence. Every engagement follows the same sequence — because you cannot defend what you have not measured, and you cannot claim vigilance you do not maintain.

01

Assess

We examine your external estate the way an adversary would — domains, email authentication, infrastructure hygiene, and exposed credentials across breach data and dark web sources. Hundreds of checks. Zero assumptions.

02

Harden

Findings become fixes, in strict order of consequence. Email and domain authentication enforced, exposures contained, configurations corrected — the quiet engineering that removes you from the easy-target list.

03

Monitor

Threats do not keep office hours. Continuous surveillance of your endpoints, gateways and credential exposure means new risks are seen the day they appear — not the day they are exploited.

04

Respond

If the day comes, the plan already exists. Response procedures, containment playbooks and POPIA breach-notification readiness — rehearsed before they are needed, executed without panic.

Defence in Depth

No single wall.
Concentric ones.

  • Perimeter, email & domain

    Authentication enforced so your name cannot be borrowed — the layer where most professional-services attacks begin.

  • Endpoint & gateway

    The devices and pathways your matter files actually travel through, watched continuously rather than audited annually.

  • Identity & credentials

    Standing surveillance of breach corpora and infostealer markets for your staff's credentials — because attackers log in more often than they break in.

  • Intelligence & response

    Severity-ranked findings, rehearsed playbooks and regulator-ready notification procedures wrapped around everything beneath.

Your Client Dashboard

You should never have to
ask how secure you are.

Every managed client gets a live dashboard written for principals, not technicians. Six defence layers, how far each one reaches across your fleet, what we are still closing — and a straight answer to whether anything needs you today.

The shape is the shield. Each point is one layer, and how far it reaches is how much of your fleet has that layer in place. Active layers are blocking now. Layers still being closed are tracked here with exactly where each one stands — and where something genuinely needs you, we contact you directly rather than leave it sitting on a page.

Every figure is computed from what your own devices report — see how the dashboard works.

Your Dashboard

You should be able to read your own defences.

Every client gets a live view of their estate — not a wall of alerts demanding interpretation, but a straight answer to the only three questions that matter: what is protected, what is still being closed, and whether anything actually needs you.

Proprietary Technology Stack

Sovereign by design.
Intelligent by construction.

Your clients' intelligence never rides on rented, shared platforms. Stratafort Cyber runs on our own purpose-built server infrastructure — premium, custom-engineered hardware that we specified, hardened and operate end-to-end. The firm guarding your data should not have landlords.

Woven through that infrastructure is our proprietary AI layer, correlating signals, triaging events and sweeping exposure sources around the clock. It gives a discreet, senior-led practice the analytical throughput of a hundred-analyst operation — resolving in hours what the industry schedules in weeks.

Sovereign hardware beneath, intelligence above — the combination that lets a boutique outpace firms many times its size.

Why Stratafort Cyber

Security with the manners of a private bank.

Most security firms sell fear and licences. We were built inside Stratafort — a house that acquires and stewards businesses for the long term — and everything above runs on infrastructure and intelligence of our own making. It shows in how we work.

Backed by Stratafort

A division of an investment house, not a reseller. Our incentive is the long-term standing of the firms in our care — the same incentive you have.

Intelligence-led, evidence-first

Every recommendation traces to a verified finding in your own estate. We put real diagnostic value on the table before we ask for anything — and we never exaggerate severity.

Discretion by design

Vendor-neutral and deliberately quiet about tradecraft: we never disclose the tooling behind our intelligence — to the market, or to your adversaries. Engagements under NDA on request.

Senior attention, always

No ticket queues, no juniors learning on your matter files. Your engagement is scoped, executed and defended by the people whose names are on it.

Begin Quietly

Find out what an adversary already knows about your firm.

A confidential conversation. A rigorous external assessment. A clear, severity-ranked picture of your exposure — before someone else compiles one.
