Most Influential Companies and Organizations of the Year 2022
CIO Bulletin
Physical security has always been a priority for individuals and companies. Businesses invest in cybersecurity for corporate networks. But what about people? What about our digital lives? As we become more connected and store more personal information on our devices, we’re becoming increasingly vulnerable to cyber attacks. This is especially true for executives, celebrities, and other high-profile individuals who are targets due to their wealth, authority, or influence. Unfortunately, there has been no solution comprehensive enough to solve this problem. Until now.
BlackCloak was founded to unite the top leaders in cybersecurity, privacy, and engineering to solve this growing challenge. Informed by decades of experience, the team has developed a concierge privacy and cybersecurity platform that measurably protects every aspect of your digital life. Merging enterprise-grade technology with expert advice, guidance, and education, they deliver concierge-style plans that match the unique threats their clients face. With BlackCloak, you can protect your digital life — and your peace of mind — anytime, anywhere.
BlackCloak is the pioneer of Digital Executive Protection, providing online privacy protection, personal device security, home network security, and incident response to corporate leaders (C-Suite, Board, executives, etc.) in their personal lives; as well as to high-profile, high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth individuals and their families. The company’s award-winning SaaS-based Concierge Cybersecurity & Privacy Platform protects companies from cyberattacks originating in an executives' personal life from moving laterally into the organization(s) that they serve, while also protecting uniquely at-risk individuals and their families from targeted cyberattacks, financial fraud, identity theft, reputation damage, and other digital threats to personal privacy and security.
Digital Executive Protection
The attack surface has expanded
The personal digital lives of executives, Board Members, and high-access employees have become the path of least resistance for cybercriminals to penetrate the enterprise. Its also the main conduit to compromise the wealth, status, data, access, reputation, and even physical security of high-net-worth and high-profile individuals and their families.
Risks to personal digital lives lack proper controls
Corporate endpoint and network security controls cannot extend into personal digital lives. Consumer antivirus, firewalls, and digital privacy solutions are not built to defend against targeted cyberattacks.

BlackCloak’s award-winning SaaS-based Concierge Cybersecurity & Privacy PlatformTM combines digital privacy protection, personal device security, home network security, and incident response with a US-based security operations center and white-glove client service.

Digital Executive Protection for High-Net-Worth & High-Profile Individuals & Families
Your digital life is at risk
Cybercriminals, fraudsters, and identity thieves now regularly target the personal digital lives of individuals and families with wealth, access, status, and reputation. Security afforded to you at work cannot transfer into your personal digital life, and consumer solutions cannot withstand targeted attacks.
Adversaries want your wealth and status
Each day, we see the negative impact cybercrime has on high-profile and high-net-worth individuals including celebrities, athletes, politicians, executives, and philanthropists.
Protect your life online
For cybercriminals, attacking the personal digital lives of high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth individuals and families can be equally as lucrative as hacking into a large organization. BlackCloak members attain peace of mind knowing that they are well-protected from sophisticated threats.
Digital Executive Protection for Executives, Board Members, and High-Access Employees
Your executives are not alright at home
Cybercriminals now regularly target the personal digital lives of company leaders with access to finances, confidential information, and proprietary data. But enterprise security cannot extend into personal lives.
BlackCloak bridges this gap, protecting your organization from cyber risks originating in an executive’s personal life, while also protecting the executive and their family from targeted cyberattacks, fraud, identity theft, reputation damage, physical threats, and other damages and disruptions.
The future of executive protection is digital
BlackCloak helps company leaders and security teams attain peace of mind knowing that digital privacy, personal devices, and home networks are always protected, and that support is never more than one-click away.
Industry Awards
BlackCloak is an award-winning digital privacy & personal cybersecurity solution. Both their technology and approach have been recognized by some of the most prominent publishers, analyst firms, and media companies across the globe.
BlackCloak, the leading provider of digital executive protection for executives, high-profile, and high-net-worth individuals and their families, today announced that it has been named the winner of Cyber Defense Magazine’s Global Infosec Awards 2022 in the category of “Next Generation Digital Executive Protection.” This is the second year in a row that Cyber Defense Magazine judges have recognized BlackCloak for their approach to helping protect the enterprise by protecting the personal digital lives of company leaders.
“BlackCloak embodies three major features we judges look for to become winners: understanding tomorrow’s threats, today, providing a cost-effective solution and innovating in unexpected ways that can help mitigate cyber risk and get one step ahead of the next breach,” said Gary S. Miliefsky, Publisher of Cyber Defense Magazine.
Today’s recognition is the latest in a number of award wins for BlackCloak in 2022. Recently, the Family Wealth Report named BlackCloak “Best Cybersecurity” for wealth management and family office clients. Earlier this year, BlackCloak was named “Hot Security Tech of the Year” by the Cybersecurity Global Excellence Awards and “Best Privacy Protection Platform” by the Cyber Excellence Awards.
“The line of demarcation that once existed between an executive’s personal digital life and their professional life is no longer a deterrent for cybercriminals, hackers, and identity thieves,” said Dr. Chris Pierson, BlackCloak’s Founder & CEO. “As the attack surface continues to expand, BlackCloak will continue to protect our members when and where their security teams lose control, in their personal digital lives. We’re thankful to the judges and Cyber Defense Magazine for recognizing our unique value within the cybersecurity ecosystem.”
