Business Email Compromise Response

Fast response to BEC attacks — trace the fraud, secure accounts, recover funds when possible.

Business Email Compromise is the most financially damaging cybercrime in the FBI’s report — over $2.9 billion in losses annually. Attackers compromise or spoof executive email accounts to redirect wire transfers, steal data, or launch further attacks.

TVG Consulting responds to BEC incidents with a focus on containment, fund recovery, and preventing recurrence.

Why businesses move to managed IT

Two offices, both local to the clients they serve. Los Angeles–area support runs from our Burbank office at 217 West Alameda Ave #102, and Middle Tennessee support runs from our Franklin office at 625 Bakers Bridge Ave Ste 105 — so an on-site visit is a drive across town, not a flight.

FBI InfraGard member. TVG participates in InfraGard, the FBI’s information-sharing partnership between the Bureau and private-sector organizations that operate critical infrastructure. It is a partnership for threat intelligence, not an endorsement or a certification.

Managed IT and a vCIO in the same engagement. Proactive monitoring, patching, help desk and layered security for a predictable monthly fee — plus budgeting, lifecycle planning and a technology roadmap, so somebody is thinking about next year while someone else is fixing today.

What the current data says — 2026

$4.99M Global average cost of a data breach — a record high, up 12% year over year IBM, Cost of a Data Breach Report 2026; research conducted independently by the Ponemon Institute. ibm.com/reports/data-breach

31% Share of breaches that start with a software vulnerability — now ahead of stolen passwords as the leading way in Verizon Business, 2026 Data Breach Investigations Report. verizon.com/business/resources/reports/dbir

Two of those three are what a managed IT plan is built to address directly: tested backup and recovery for the ransomware case, and disciplined patch management for the vulnerability case.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can stolen wire transfers be recovered?+
If reported within 24-48 hours, banks can often freeze and recover misdirected funds. We coordinate with your bank’s fraud department and the FBI IC3 Recovery Asset Team to maximize recovery chances.
How do attackers compromise business email?+
Common methods include phishing emails, credential stuffing from leaked passwords, and MFA bypass techniques. Once inside, attackers set up mail forwarding rules to monitor communications.

CEO fraud is a BEC variant where attackers impersonate a CEO or executive to request urgent wire transfers from finance staff. The emails often come from spoofed or compromised executive accounts.
How do you prevent future BEC attacks?+
We implement DMARC/SPF/DKIM email authentication, deploy phishing-resistant MFA, enable advanced anti-phishing policies, and train staff to verify wire transfer requests through secondary channels.
Should we involve law enforcement?+
