The private cybersecurity advisor at the table with your wealth advisor, estate attorney, and CPA.

Private cybersecurity and privacy counsel for principals, households, family offices, and the businesses they own.

Trusted human judgment in the age of AI

Wealth advisors. Estate attorneys. CPAs. No such equivalent exists for cybersecurity.

Blayes is that role. A Firm Review for the firms that serve the family, a finite engagement for households, the same judgment at the right scale.

AI has made the technical side of an attack cheap, and a familiar voice or request is no longer proof of anything. It has not made anyone accountable.

Founded in South Florida, Blayes works in person across Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Palm Beach, and Jupiter, in person at every residence, in South Florida or elsewhere.

Credentials

The experience behind Blayes.

Blayes was founded by a cybersecurity leader with more than 20 years of experience and CISSP, CCSP, and GIAC credentials. The advisor who sets up your household is the one you call when something looks wrong.

Written plainly, sent once, with our compliments. No follow-up unless you ask for it.

We never share your address. Privacy.

Two practices. One judgment.

Two engagement lines. A Firm Review often leads to a household engagement, and a household engagement often leads to a Business Review for a business the family owns. Each is sold separately.

For wealth advisory, trust and estate, and CPA firms

For the firms around the family

The Firm Review, $12,500, paid by the firm, for wealth advisory firms, trust and estate practices, and CPA firms. Blayes verifies the firm's Regulation S-P work rather than repeating it, writes the improvement plan, verifies what the firm's IT provider implements, and gives a client briefing the firm hosts.

For households

For private clients

The Exposure Scan, $2,500, credited to the first year. The Crown Jewels Session, $7,500, one day, credited to the engagement if you sign within 90 days. The Private Cybersecurity Engagement, $25,000 fixed, about ten weeks. After the first year, the Private Cybersecurity Program at $3,000 a month or the Membership at $12,000 a year.

Engagement

Fixed-fee engagement. Scoped to the household.

Review the Engagement →

For the firms around the family.

Firm Review, $12,500, paid by the firm. A test call against how the firm verifies a client's instruction; a read of who can move client money; a review of mailboxes, portals, remote access, the IT provider's access, and AI tools. Blayes writes the improvement plan, verifies what the IT provider implements, and gives a client briefing the firm hosts. Blayes pays no referral fee and takes none.

Business Review. For a business the family owns, on the same terms: the IT provider implements, Blayes reviews and verifies. Fixed fee, quoted when the family asks; paid by the company.

The risk now follows the wealth.

It's now in personal email, the phones, the house, the next wire, and a child's name online.

The first weeks

Within two weeks we'll show you where you're exposed and how someone could target you.

  1. 01

    Day one.

    We lock your main accounts and phone numbers, and you sign the money rule.

  2. 02

    Day 14.

    One page: how a criminal could get to your money, and who's closing each one.

  3. 03

    The money rule.

    Nobody moves your money until they've confirmed it's you, and a familiar voice doesn't count. Your banks have that in writing.

  4. 04

    The drill.

    You get back in without your phone, and your staff get a call in your cloned voice.

For households

The Private Cybersecurity Engagement.

Hands-on protection for your family's essential accounts, devices, and home systems, including priority security controls at one business you own.

$25,000 fixed

Your household, primary residence, and one business's Tier 1 security items. The first year of the Private Cybersecurity Program is included.

What you receive

A one-page attack path map, prioritized and verified fixes, recovery drills, and your numbered Private Cybersecurity Plan.

Delivery

In-person work at home, with remote sessions where appropriate. Additional residences: $7,500 each.

Payment

Half at signing, half after you see the evidence.

After year one

The watch on your computers, a rescan every six months, the annual drill, and Blayes before each money moment. Program $3,000 a month, or Membership $12,000 a year.

Calibrated for every member of the household.

The exposure of a nine-year-old is not that of a college freshman or an eighty-year-old parent.

Children, teens, college students, and aging parents each get a session calibrated to their exposure; the senior generation's recovery is set so a trusted adult child can step in.

Every engagement ends with a Private Cybersecurity Plan you keep in the same file as your estate plan.

Page one is the attack path map, and the rest of the plan covers your accounts and devices, how the important ones are set up, where your recovery information is kept and who can reach it if something happens to you, and what we'll review with you each year.

How sensitive access is handled.

You hold the keys.

Your passwords, recovery codes, and credentials stay with you. Blayes never takes custody of them, and every change is made with you in the room or on screen. If Blayes disappeared tomorrow, nothing about your security would depend on it.

No sales. No commissions.

Blayes doesn't sell software or take a fee from any vendor, so the tools it recommends are the ones that are right for you.

Information is minimized and masked.

Sensitive details are masked before any analysis tool is used. Your information is never used to train an outside model and never stored on a third-party platform.

Confidential, on written terms.

No work begins without an engagement letter and a non-disclosure agreement. Blayes never discloses who its clients are.

Blayes does not guarantee that a family will not be attacked.

It closes the paths it finds, shows the evidence for each change, and names what is still open, with an owner and a date.

What we don't do

Blayes is an advisory practice. It runs no help desk and does not manage devices or networks day to day. The monitoring of the household's computers runs through a partner inside the membership, and Blayes acts on the reports in stated hours. Penetration testing and forensics are done by named partners the family contracts at cost; Blayes scopes the work and reads the results with you. In an incident, Blayes directs the response: it chooses and oversees the responder and verifies what was done. Physical security and executive protection are outside the practice.

For the people who run a family's accounts.

Private Client Cybersecurity in the Age of AI: seven live Tuesdays: six sessions and the Money Movement Practice Hour on verification, documentation, and first response, for professionals who serve wealthy families. Tuesdays, January 12 to February 23, 2027. Enrollment closes January 8, 2027.

$1,997 founding, $2,950 standard; eleven seats.

Before we speak.

My advisor calls to confirm large transfers. Isn't that enough?

It was, until a recorded voice became easy to reproduce. A confirmation call can now be the fraud rather than the safeguard: the voice on the line can be an AI-generated clone. Reliable verification depends on a second channel, agreed in advance, that an impersonator cannot reach.

Do you work alongside our existing advisors?

Yes. Blayes complements the wealth advisor, estate attorney, and CPA, never replacing them or cross-selling around them. No software resale, no commission, no account custody, so an introduction is safe for everyone.

What do you need from us before the first session?

Who is in the household, which residences and businesses are in scope, and the advisors who move money for you. No passwords, codes, or account numbers; those are handled only with you in the room, after an engagement is established.

Does our IT provider or family office staff stay involved?

Yes. At home, Blayes makes the changes with you present. In a business you own, the IT provider implements and Blayes reviews and verifies, so nothing is changed without the people who run it.

Consultation request

Request a private consultation.

A private 30-minute conversation with the advisor about the right first step. With your permission, it opens with a brief look at what is publicly visible about your household or firm. Nothing is kept unless you engage.

Prefer to write?

Send a short note and the advisor will reply directly. Please don't include passwords, account numbers, or recovery codes.

Your details are used only to respond to your inquiry, never added to mailing lists or shared. See our privacy policy.
