Cybersecurity for Financial Advisors and Wealth Management Firms

Registered investment advisers and broker-dealers now field cybersecurity questions from examiners, custodians and clients in the same month. cAIberOps runs managed email, endpoint and AI security that supports the safeguards in SEC Regulation S-P, and documents it monthly for a firm with no security staff. Nationwide, including Washington DC, Northern Virginia, and Maryland.

WHAT YOU ARE ASKED ABOUT

What Regulation S-P and your clients ask about

The amended rule's safeguards and incident-response expectations map to controls a managed service runs; your CCO decides how they apply to your firm.

Safeguards on customer information

Email protection with account takeover detection, endpoint protection on each advisor's laptop, and the posture report on your tenant's MFA, forwarding rules and app permissions are the practical safeguards.

Incident response and notification

When something gets through we investigate with no time cap and write it up, which is the record your incident response program and any notification decision rest on.

Service-provider oversight and AI use

Examiners ask about the vendors with access to client data and about AI acceptable-use policies. We are one vendor with a clear agreement; AI security enforces the AI usage policy you set.

We run controls that support these frameworks and document what we did. We do not certify, audit, write your policies or guarantee compliance; that is your assessor's or counsel's role.

WHO WE PROTECT

Financial firms we protect

Registered investment advisers (RIAs)

Small teams with custodian portals, client statements and wire requests in the inbox. Click-time link checks and account takeover detection protect the mailbox that moves money.

Broker-dealers and registered representatives

Representatives on their own devices and shared mailboxes with the home office. Endpoint protection per device; email protection per user.

Wealth management and family offices

Highly personal client data and a small staff that attackers research by name. Email protection plus awareness training and dark web monitoring for leaked credentials.

Independent and solo advisors

One person, one laptop, one mailbox, the same obligations. Managed email and endpoint protection priced per user and per endpoint, no minimum.

WHAT WE RUN

How cAIberOps (SY-ber-ops) protects you

Three managed services, priced per user or per endpoint, the same in each sector.

Managed Email Security

Zero-day sandboxing, attachment cleaning, click-time link checks and account takeover detection on Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, with the quarantine reviewed seven days a week and whatever gets through investigated with no time cap. Starts at $6.40 per user per month.

Managed Email Security

Managed Endpoint Protection

Anti-ransomware with file rollback, behavioral analysis, sandboxing for downloads and USB control on each device, with alerts investigated by us. Starts at $8 per endpoint per month.

Managed Endpoint Protection

Managed AI Security

Discovery of the AI tools your staff use, data loss prevention for prompts and uploads, and policy enforcement, so client data stays out of personal AI accounts. Starts with a free Shadow AI Discovery.

FAQ

Questions from financial advisors & wealth management

What size businesses do you work with?

Small and medium businesses and nonprofits, typically 10 to 500 employees, nationwide. Pricing is per user or per endpoint, so a 12-person firm and a 300-person firm pay the same rate.

Can you write our cybersecurity policies or WISP?

No. We do not write compliance policies, WISPs or System Security Plans. The one policy we do write with you is the AI acceptable-use policy, as part of Managed AI Security, because we enforce it. Compliance consulting is your CCO's or counsel's work; the monthly report gives them evidence to cite.

Do you require long-term contracts?

No. A simple yearly subscription with no onboarding fee and no multi-year contract.

Do you handle AI acceptable-use questions from examiners?

Managed AI Security enforces the AI usage policy you set and reports monthly on what was caught; that is the answer in writing.
