A Proven Team Built for Complex Cybersecurity Challenges
We are a cybersecurity firm focused on helping organizations protect critical data, respond to incidents, and make informed security decisions. Our work spans assessment, incident response, digital forensics, and ongoing security operations—delivered by experienced practitioners and supported by disciplined, evidence-based processes.
Our People and Our Perspective
Experience You Can Rely On When It Matters Most
Our team is made up of practitioners who have worked on complex, high-stakes matters long before joining Breadcrumb. Backgrounds span law enforcement, critical infrastructure and utilities, highly regulated industries, and business leadership—bringing practical perspective and care to every engagement. That experience is paired with deep technical expertise, supported by advanced industry certifications and ongoing training across digital forensics, incident response, and related disciplines.
With teams operating across multiple states, we support organizations nationwide and remain available 24/7 when incidents require immediate attention. Our work is grounded in evidence and careful analysis, but it is also shaped by long-term relationships. Many clients continue to work with Breadcrumb well beyond an initial incident or investigation, relying on the team as a steady, trusted partner as new challenges arise. Each engagement is approached with discipline, clarity, and respect for the pressures clients are under—helping leaders understand what happened, what it means, and what comes next.
