About us

Vigilante Bespoke was formed in 2008 by a group of leading IT security experts who recognised the digital threats posed to high profile and high-net worth individuals.  Whilst over the past 5 years, there have been advancements in IT security within the government and corporate sectors, domestic security has not advanced to keep up with the evolving threats, and therefore many security risks exist.  For someone in the public eye, losing a camera, phone or laptop storing sensitive or valuable data, can be very detrimental to the individual; potentially exposing themselves to unwanted publicity, theft of intellectual property, or in severe cases; physical harm.
