From mergers and acquisitions to intellectual property protection, corporations face mounting physical and digital threats. Hg’s digital vulnerability program, background investigations, due diligence, cyber investigations, and risk monitoring services enable corporate security teams, legal counsel, and compliance departments to:

  • Vet prospective partners, vendors, and C-level hires with deep investigative rigor
  • Identify digital exposures to executive leadership that can compromise safety and security through continuous monitoring and removal of personal information across social media, surface, deep, and dark web
  • Expose potential fraud, intellectual property theft, and cybercrime that could negatively impact operations or erode public trust

Hg’s corporate OSINT training programs also upskill in-house teams in open-source intelligence (OSINT), social media investigations (SOCMINT) and research, enabling smarter decisions related to safety and operational security.
