Because a breach shouldn’t shut you down
Elite security, patented protection, NATO‑backed technology
Delivered by Cyber FIREBREAK™ as a trusted partner to boards, senior IT and compliance leaders.
Cyber Risk Is Now A Board‑level Business Problem
Cybercrime is now a highly organised, well-funded and sophisticated worldwide industry. Global damage is projected to exceed $10.5 trillion by the end of 2025 and continue rising in the coming years. Attacks are faster, more targeted and increasingly focused on disrupting operations, stealing assets and extracting ransom payments – not just taking data.
Traditional security tools focus on keeping attackers out — but breaches still occur, and most organisations lack a reliable way to contain the impact once they do. The result is prolonged downtime, regulatory exposure, reputational damage and a long, expensive road to recovery.
How Cyber FIREBREAK™ Works
Cyber FIREBREAK™ introduces a patented FIREBREAK™ layer into your existing infrastructure. Critical systems are segmented, a controlled isolation point is established, and when an attack occurs the affected segment can be cut off before it spreads.
The result is a smaller blast radius, reduced downtime, and a cleaner, faster path to recovery — working alongside your existing cyber stack, not replacing it.
Sectors & Cases
Cyber attacks now cut across sectors and geographies. Recent incidents in energy, logistics, healthcare, consumer finance and manufacturing have shown how quickly a single breach can shut down operations, trigger ransom demands and lead to heavy regulatory and legal costs.

Colonial Pipeline
Energy & critical infrastructure
Ransomware (DarkSide)
$ Millions paid & lost;
Nationwide fuel shortages & economic disruption.
Global IT outage halts shipping worldwide
Maersk

Healthcare & public services
Ransomware on key supplier
$ Tens of millions paid & lost;
Critical care delayed, regulatory scrutiny, & data exposure.
Sensitive Data on 147 Million Compromised
Equifax
Consumer finance & credit
Data breach
$1.4bn+ total cost;
Up to $700M+ in fines & settlements.
Production Halted for Multiple Weeks
Jaguar Land Rover

State fines & class action lawsuits.
These are just a few examples. The pattern is clear: when core systems go down, the question is not just ‘how did they get in?’ but ‘how far can it spread and how fast can we recover?’”
Compliance & governance
Regulators are increasingly clear: cyber resilience is now a board responsibility with personal accountability attached. Under regimes such as NIS2 and their global equivalents, directors and senior executives can face investigations, fines and enforcement action where serious breaches expose a lack of appropriate controls.
Cyber FIREBREAK™ helps boards, senior IT, and compliance leaders demonstrate how they will limit the impact of an inevitable breach, protect critical operations, and restore services quickly.
About Us
Ellie and James Richards bring over 30 years of experience building and leading businesses across the UK, USA, and Gibraltar. Their background spans business development and client acquisition, alongside capital raising and strategic introductions, working with family offices, ultra-high-net-worth individuals, and institutional stakeholders, where rigour, discretion, and compliance are essential.
Recent cyber incidents across critical infrastructure, healthcare, logistics, and financial services demonstrate a clear reality: even well-defended organisations are breached, and the impact spreads faster than most can contain. Cyber risk has evolved from a technical issue into a systemic business and governance challenge, with increasing regulatory and personal accountability for boards and executives.
Following extensive research and dialogue with industry and government stakeholders, Ellie and James partnered with an award-winning, NATO-backed cyber technology provider whose patented capabilities address what traditional security controls do not — containing cyber attacks once they are inside, before disruption cascades across critical operations.
Cyber FIREBREAK™ exists to connect this proven, sovereign-grade technology with organisations that recognise cyber resilience as a board-level responsibility and business continuity imperative.
Ready to review your cyber resilience?
If you’re responsible for keeping critical operations running, the question is no longer if an attack will get through — but how far it can spread and how quickly you can recover.
If you’d like a confidential, board-level discussion about how a FIREBREAK™ layer could strengthen your existing cyber and resilience strategy, we’ll walk you through the options in plain language — no jargon, no hard sell.
