Our Reputation Risk Audits provide individuals and their organisations with an assessment of their reputational risk exposure. Our technology scrapes the Internet for information about clients – and we manually assess every reference, bringing informed and human-led judgements to bear on complex content.
Do you have a thorough understanding of your reputational risk exposure – and how you are perceived by others? Your digital footprint is a proxy for your reputation and may hold unseen reputational risks, with the power to make or break your career, business success, and partnerships.
A single forgotten tweet can explode into a full-scale reputational crisis. Reputations that have taken decades of hard work to build can be destroyed overnight, leading to crises of confidence amongst partners, lenders, employees, and investors.
At the same time, the Internet has put more information at the fingertips of the public. Private information – from addresses to the names of family members – is available at a click of a button, capable of being used (and misused) by competitors, activists, and others.
In the face of these challenges, our award-winning Reputation Risk Audits identify all the content capable of exposing successful individuals to reputational risks and potential privacy breaches – and provide pragmatic recommendations to mitigate or eliminate risks.
