ObscureIQ is a private advisory firm. We work with individuals whose visibility carries real consequence.
We reduce what can be used against them. We watch what surfaces next.
Data about you is already public. Most of it is noise. Some of it is leverage.
Deletion is not the first step. Assessment is. The two are not the same.
Opt-out services file requests and move on. A record drops from one surface and returns elsewhere.
Our work begins earlier. We see the footprint the way a capable adversary would, then we address what matters.
Some records can be removed. Others cannot. Both cases are handled with the same goal: make the residue less useful.
Each one addresses a different stage of exposure. Each is led by a named analyst.
An annual engagement led by a dedicated analyst. Work begins with a footprint audit. Removals proceed across data brokers, breach ecosystems, and public records. The engagement runs for the year as exposure evolves.
View Engagement →Continuous monitoring, reviewed daily by analysts. Coverage spans narrative signals, dark web chatter, and location-linked activity. Alerts reach the principal only when a signal warrants action.
View Engagement →Open-source investigations, adversary research, and tactical privacy training are available as standalone engagements.
Most digital executive protection comes out of cybersecurity. ObscureIQ came out of intelligence and privacy work. Two disciplines, usually separated. Kept together, each informs the other.
We work on the data layer, not the network. Identity records, broker holdings, breach copies, and public archives. The infrastructure that makes a principal findable and targetable.
The people who scope an engagement are the people who execute it. Each principal works with a named analyst from intake through ongoing counsel.
CODEX, our internal index of the data ecosystem, sits under every engagement. Public broker lists name a few hundred entities. Ours tracks more than eight thousand.
Every engagement begins with the Digital Footprint Audit. It maps what exists, where it lives, and what it still enables.
The audit runs across brokers, breach ecosystems, public records, and identity infrastructure. It arrives as a written report and a private readout.
The Hostility Index runs alongside the audit. It reads the context around the principal: profession, visibility, affiliations, and public record. Principals use it to surface their own sense of exposure. Organizations use it to identify which leaders or employees sit at elevated risk.
The plan follows from the findings. It addresses what can be removed and manages what cannot. Every plan is specific to the footprint, not a template.
If searching your own name has ever left you uneasy, the process is built for that.
They tracked the actors doxxing and harassing my team. Two of three were identified with certainty. Reports were delivered in a form law enforcement could act on.
I thought I was careful with my digital profile. I had used deletion services before. ObscureIQ was the first team to show me what my exposure still enabled. Now I understand the difference.
A confidential call assesses your baseline exposure, your risk profile, and what level of response makes sense.
Some clients come with a known threat. Others want to understand what their footprint enables before something happens.
Conversations are private and off-the-record by default.
Encrypted intake. You control the scope.
