What can LockerByte secure for you?
Web security · Lead focus

The site customers find you through, plus its forms, logins, and payments. It gets secured so it can’t be turned against you or the people who use it.

What’s at stake

The numbers behind “it won’t happen to us.”

These are reported losses from the FBI, the FTC, and the largest annual breach studies. The real totals are higher, because many victims never report.

$20.9 billion

reported lost to internet crime in the U.S. in 2025, up 26% from the year before. The FBI now receives almost 3,000 complaints a day. [1]

$3.0B

Fake invoices and payment requests

Lost to business email compromise in 2025: one convincing email redirecting a real payment. [1]

48%

Breaches that involve ransomware

Files locked until a ransom is paid. Most victims refuse, and rebuild instead. [2]

$7.7B

Lost by Americans 60 and over

From 201,266 complaints in 2025, more than any other age group. [1]

$16B

Reported lost by consumers to fraud

A record in 2025, and about 25% more than 2024. [4]

247 days

To find and contain a breach

The average at the organizations IBM studied. Attackers aren’t in a hurry. [3]

Malicious breaches now use AI

Up 56% in a year. Scams are getting more convincing, faster. [3]

What that means for you

  • For a business: a single incident can mean lost payments, days without being able to work, notifying customers, and trust that takes years to rebuild.
  • For a family: drained accounts, stolen identities, and scams aimed squarely at the people you care about.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

What does LockerByte actually do?

LockerByte is a cybersecurity consultancy. I assess, implement, and maintain security for your website, network, devices, and data, whether that’s a small business, a household, or a growing organization.

Who do you work with?

Mainly small businesses and individuals or families who want real protection without hiring a full security team. As organizations grow, the same approach scales with them.

Do I need to be technical?

Not at all. I explain everything in plain language, tell you what matters and why, and handle the technical work. You make the decisions; I make them easy to make.

Do you work remotely?

Yes. Remote is how LockerByte works, for clients anywhere in the United States. Audits, implementation, and ongoing protection can all be handled securely without an on-site visit. For local clients, on-site work is also available; see the service area at the bottom of this page.

Is the discovery call really free?

Yes. The discovery call costs nothing and commits you to nothing. We talk through what you have, what worries you, and what a sensible next step looks like.

What’s the best option for me?

That’s something we decide together. On the discovery call we look at your budget and the level of security your business or household actually needs, then choose between a one-time project or ongoing protection on a retainer. Either way, it starts with a Security Posture Audit, included at no extra cost. No one-size-fits-all packages.

What’s the difference between a project and a retainer?

A project has a defined scope and a finish line: the protections go in, get documented, and you’re done. A retainer adds ongoing upkeep afterward, with regular reviews and updates as your systems and the threats around them change.
