Treatment Photo Extortion
Client before-and-after images stored on shared phones and open cloud albums.
Aesthetics & Cosmetic Clinics depend on booking platforms, Instagram DMs and cloud photo storage. HackGuardX continuously scans your website, email domain, cloud and code for security vulnerabilities, so you can fix weaknesses before they become costly breaches. Enterprise-grade protection without the enterprise price tag.
A single cyberattack on one of the UK's aesthetics & cosmetic clinics could expose client photos, medical histories and deposits, halt day-to-day operations and trigger regulatory reporting, fines and lasting reputational damage. Small firms are not too small to be targeted. Automated attacks scan every UK business for an easy way in.
Why aesthetics & cosmetic clinics are targeted: Before-and-after photos are deeply personal. Attackers have extorted clinics and their clients by threatening to publish them.
