We protect organizations and their people in ways most security teams can’t
Personal information used to be private. Now it’s the first thing an attacker looks for—a home address, a family member’s name, a daily routine. That exposure has been fueling doxxing, stalking, and physical and cyber attacks aimed at organizations and the people who represent them. We built Ironwall to meet those threats head-on: a digital bodyguard that operates where traditional security teams were never designed to reach.
Our mission
We prevent threats from escalating to attacks. Ironwall protects organizations and the people who lead them by interrupting the pathway to those attacks at the easiest stage for intervention—the research phase.
We want to build a world where your job doesn’t turn you into an easy target. Whether it’s executives who are the faces of their companies, celebrities who are always in the public eye, or law enforcement officers who keep the streets safe, no one should have to worry that their work puts them or their loved ones in harm’s way.
Our story
Since 2011, we’ve been protecting at-risk individuals by keeping their home addresses and other personally identifiable information private. We ensure that the things they cherish most can’t be exploited for doxxing, physical attacks, or cyber attacks like ransomware.
Over the years, thousands of people working in high-risk professions, along with their spouses and children, have found security under our protection. Our 98% client-retention rate speaks for itself, a testament to the trust we’ve earned and maintained.
Ironwall is backed by Incogni, drawing on our own high-level security roots and Incogni’s infrastructure. We also partner with some of the biggest and most trusted names in privacy and technology, giving our clients access to the industry’s most advanced protection tools.
The digital bodyguard we’ve built
Every attack starts with research: find the right target, gather the right details, wait for the right moment. We built Ironwall’s methodology to interrupt that process at every stage at which it can still be stopped.
It started with a simple realization: you can’t remove what you don’t know is exposed. So we built continuous scanning across the entire searchable web—not just data broker sites, but social media, government records, and anywhere else personal information tends to surface. We’ve paired this with experienced privacy specialists who investigate active threats and turn what we find into a clear picture of risk.
Who we guard
Ironwall protects organizations across the US and Canada, and the range of professionals who need that protection is broader than most assume. Some roles carry risk built into the job itself:
Executives
Face constant public scrutiny that can turn them into direct targets
Public servants
Have to make decisions that almost always make an enemy of someone
Corporate teams
Across industries like healthcare, finance, energy, and technology face targeted attacks for reasons as varied as the organizations themselves
But exposure isn’t limited to high-profile roles. Every employee at every organization carries some degree of it. We believe taking proactive steps to protect them before it becomes a threat is always the right thing to do.

Need more information?
Ironwall by Incogni is an online privacy protection and data removal service for employees, company executives, judges, court and law enforcement personnel, and social workers. It is used by people in public-facing or high-risk professions to prevent cybercrime, fraud, and physical harassment.
Ironwall by Incogni tracks personal information across virtually all types of websites, not just people finder services, and takes direct action to remove it. We protect against threats, harassment, violence, ransomware attacks, and identity theft. Our service also covers clients' families, offering additional security measures like VPN accounts, VoIP numbers, and email aliases. We provide immediate support in emergencies.
Ironwall has provided online privacy protection since 2011 and enjoys a renewal rate of over 95%. We scan the internet daily to remove clients' personal information, taking legal action if necessary. We never keep or sell client data. Our team has removed over a million pieces of private information and offers preventative measures to reduce exposure.
The websites where we most frequently find information are Nuwber, Spokeo, Yellow Pages, USA Profile Pages, Radaris, and Intelius. However, these types of data broker and people finder sites only constitute about 40% of the possible places where this content can be found online. That’s why, unlike other providers, Ironwall also tracks government websites, social media, and other online sources where our clients’ data may reside.
Ironwall by Incogni employs robust security measures to protect your information, including automated and human reviews, the logging and monitoring of all access attempts, and a strict policy of not collecting or storing Social Security numbers. Proprietary intruder-detection protocols ensure that your information is neither exfiltrated nor shared with outside sources. You can request deletion of your information at any time, with a 90-day dormant period before permanent deletion.
