Cythentic stops the two attacks that drain California businesses: business email compromise and ransomware.
Your bank cannot stop the email that tricks your controller into wiring money to a fake vendor, or the ransomware that locks your accounting system the night before payroll. We can. Every business customer and member gets a free external exposure scan, a free security scorecard, and a permanent Remi security assessment for every employee, at no cost.
No credit card. No obligation. Nothing to install.
Independent security expertise for the businesses you bank.
Both are free for your business customers and members, and you run them yourself in about sixty seconds. Enter your domain, get your results on the spot. Nothing to install, no sales call, no form to fill out first.
Enter your domain and we scan it the way an attacker would, from the outside, with no access to your systems. Open ports, exposed admin panels, MFA gaps, lookalike domains impersonating your brand, email authentication weaknesses, and more. You get the findings and what to fix first.
Run Your Free Scan →A structured review of the controls that decide whether an attack succeeds: multi-factor authentication, email security, patching, backups, access control, and incident readiness. You get a graded scorecard and a prioritized list of what to close first.
See Your Score →"I keep waiting for a bank to figure this out. A bank that treats cybersecurity as a competitive advantage instead of a compliance checkbox. A bank that requires proper authentication, provides real security guidance to small business customers, and actually helps victims understand what went wrong so it does not happen again. If I found a bank like that, I would move my accounts tomorrow."
Corey White, Founder and CEO, Cythentic, from his book You're Already a Target™, coming this fall.
Banking protects accounts. We protect the email, the endpoints, and the cloud applications that attackers actually target on the way to your customers' and members' money.
Business email compromise walks straight past a firewall. An attacker impersonates a CEO, a vendor, or a bank, and convinces a controller to wire funds to an account they control. Once the team authorizes the wire, it is gone, and Regulation E consumer protections do not cover business accounts.
Attackers sit inside a network for weeks before anything encrypts. They map the systems, find the backups, and fire on the night before payroll or a major filing deadline, when the pressure to pay is highest. Recovery is measured in weeks, not hours.
Most business owners assume FDIC coverage protects them from theft. It does not. The FDIC's own guidance is explicit that deposit insurance does not protect against losses due to theft or fraud. Accounts are insured against a bank failing, which is rare, and exposed to cybercrime, which is not.
In Chapter 5, Corey opens with a marketing agency owner who nearly lost forty seven thousand dollars to a BEC attack, saved only because her bookkeeper happened to phone the vendor to confirm. She was lucky. Most are not. Here is how the chain works, and where we break it.
Roughly forty percent of BEC emails are now generated with AI: grammatically clean, contextually accurate, and written to match the sender they are impersonating.
Most attacks begin weeks before anything encrypts, which means there is a window to catch it, if someone is looking.
Remi is our flagship application. It assesses each person for vulnerabilities across their accounts, devices and household, scores exactly where they stand, and walks them through remediating what it finds.
A business is only as secure as the personal accounts of the people who work in it. The controller who gets phished at home is the same controller who approves the wires.
The scan, the scorecard, and Remi are free to your business customers and members. When proof is needed rather than a checklist, these are the engagements, delivered personally by Corey White with a written report and a live readout.
External and internal testing that shows whether an attacker can actually get in and reach what matters, scored with CVSS and delivered with a prioritized remediation plan and an attestation letter that can be handed to clients and insurers.
A structured review of the environment mapped to the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, with the gaps ranked and a roadmap for closing them.
Verification that multi factor authentication is correctly configured and enforced everywhere it needs to be, including the bypass paths a login screen never reveals.
A controlled campaign that measures how a team responds to a credible lure, with per user results and training that follows.
Ongoing security leadership without a full time hire, for the decisions that come up between projects and the questions clients and insurers keep asking.
Tabletop exercises and a response plan built before it is needed, so the first hour of an incident is executed rather than improvised.
No downloads. No contracts. No waiting until next quarter.
Enter your domain at cythentic.com/scan. In about a minute you see what an attacker sees, graded.
The findings and grade are on screen immediately. For the full report or a thirty minute walkthrough, tell us where to send it. No pressure, no obligation.
Every employee gets a permanent assessment and starts closing their own gaps. If deeper work is wanted, we scope it. If not, everything above stays.
Because the losses that hurt business customers and members most are not bank failures, they are wire fraud and ransomware, and neither is covered by deposit insurance. Helping close those gaps protects the customer and the relationship at the same time.
For business customers and members, all of this is free: the external exposure scan, the security scorecard, guidance on business email compromise, ransomware, and incident response, and a permanent personal security assessment with Remi for every person on the team. Paid work is the deeper engagement work listed above, quoted at a fixed scope before anything begins. There is no obligation to buy anything to keep the free items.
Permanent. Remi normally costs $9.99 per person per month. For your people it is free, with no per seat charge now or later, and it does not expire or convert to a paid plan if nothing else is ever purchased. It is not a trial and there is nothing to cancel.
No. The FDIC's own published guidance states that deposit insurance does not protect against losses due to theft or fraud. FDIC coverage applies if the bank fails. It does not apply when a team is tricked into authorizing a wire.
An attacker gets into or convincingly imitates a trusted email conversation, usually with a vendor or an executive, then changes the payment instructions at exactly the right moment. The team authorizes the payment believing it is legitimate. Because the transfer is authorized, it is extremely difficult to reverse.
No. The scan and scorecard are run by us and delivered to you. Remi is built for people with no security background. The engagements are delivered by Corey directly, working alongside whoever handles the technology today.
Corey White, personally. Thirty years in cybersecurity, including leading incident response on some of the most significant breaches on record, and a founding executive team member at a cybersecurity company built to a billion dollar valuation. You can review the record at cythentic.com.
No, and it should not. An IT provider keeps things running. This is independent verification of whether the security controls actually hold, which is a different job and generally should not be graded by the same people who built it.
Every business customer and member gets the scan, the scorecard, and a personal security assessment with Remi for the whole team, at no cost. It takes about a minute to find out where you stand.
