The Challenge: A 15-attorney law firm in Century City was hit by ransomware on a Thursday evening. All files encrypted, email down, case management inaccessible. Active litigation deadlines within 72 hours. The attackers demanded $500,000 in Bitcoin.
The TVG Response: Our emergency team was on-site within 90 minutes. We contained the attack, identified the entry point (phishing email to a paralegal), and began recovery from clean backups. Within 48 hours, the firm was fully operational — and they never paid a dime in ransom.
