They don't get hacked.
They get tricked.

One fake invoice. One "the boss needs a payment." And the money's gone. I run live security awareness training that teaches your team to catch it — and gives you the documented proof your insurer and regulators now require.

  • Cyber insurers now require documented annual training — I produce the completion reports and per-employee certificates they ask for.
  • Built from real cases, delivered by a person, in plain language.
  • Registered Georgia LLC, professional liability insured.

GhostTrace isn't a private investigator, a law firm, or law enforcement, and doesn't locate, profile, or run background checks on people.

Who this is for

Businesses with the clearest need for this

Real estate, title & closing firms

Wire fraud is an existential risk — a single diverted closing can cost six figures, and clients increasingly choose firms based on how well they're protected.

Accountants, tax preparers & bookkeepers

The FTC Safeguards Rule legally requires security awareness training for your staff.

Auto dealers, mortgage brokers & insurance agents

Same federal rule, same training requirement.

Any small business carrying cyber insurance

Training is now a condition of coverage, not an optional extra.

Primary service

Security awareness training for small teams

Most incidents start with a person, not a firewall. Someone clicks a phishing link, reuses a password, or wires money because an email looked right. Training a team to catch that moment is one of the most effective things a small business can do for its security, and it's usually the thing that gets skipped.

We run a live, interactive session built around the scams your team will actually see: phishing, invoice fraud, fake support calls, password reuse. No slideshow full of jargon. Real examples, role-play, and a follow-up summary your team keeps.

Sixty to ninety minutes, tailored to your team's risk profile.

In-person

Recommended for a team's first session — the most engaging format for building real habits.

Online

Great for refreshers, remote staff, and businesses further out.

What you walk away with
  • A live, customized training session for your team
  • A recording for absent staff and new hires
  • Individual completion certificates with verifiable IDs
  • A completion report formatted for cyber-insurance applications and renewals

Certificate of insurance available on request for business clients.

What clients say

Real people, real results

"Daniel with GhostTrace LLC advised me that someone had cloned my Facebook page. I had previously been advised by a friend that they were receiving friend requests but were already my friend on Facebook. Daniel gathered the necessary information and within a hour had identified the problem and provided guidance and appropriate documentation to remedy the problem. Very quick and effective response from Daniel and his company. I would highly recommend Daniel and GhostTrace LLC to assist with this type of problem."
