Scope

What this engagement covers

The service

BEC is still the number-one cause of cyber-related financial loss. We contain the compromise, trace the attacker's activity, coordinate with your bank when funds are in flight, and harden the tenant.

What we test

Compromised Microsoft 365 / Google Workspace accounts, forwarding rules, OAuth grants, session tokens, delegated permissions, and downstream fraud attempts.

Method

How we run it

Immediate account containment, evidence preservation, tenant-wide forensic review, and hardening of identity controls. We coordinate with counsel and financial institutions when wire fraud is involved.

Typical results

What we usually find

The issues this engagement surfaces most often. Yours will differ, but this is the shape of it.

Malicious inbox rules hiding replies Attacker-granted OAuth applications MFA bypass via legacy auth Token theft via phishing Wire fraud via thread hijacking Gift card scams
Fit

Who this is for

Active BEC / account compromise
Suspected invoice fraud
Pre-incident M365/Google hardening reviews
Standards this supports

Findings are mapped to SOC 2, PCI-DSS, HIPAA, GDPR, so the report drops into an audit package rather than needing to be translated first. If you need the readiness work behind one of those, that is a separate engagement.
