From Attack to Audit: How Lockwell Helps You Recover from BEC (And Prevent the Next One)

Most cybersecurity advice focuses on stopping threats before they happen.

But what if something already slipped through?

Your team wired money to the wrong account.
An employee shared credentials with a spoofed vendor.
Someone clicked.

Now what?

For small businesses and nonprofits, Business Email Compromise (BEC) isn’t just a scary acronym—it’s a real event that can derail operations, damage trust, and trigger a mess of investigation, paperwork, and panic.

That’s why Lockwell doesn’t just help you prevent BEC attacks. It helps you respond to them—clearly, quickly, and with confidence.

The Hidden Cost of Not Being Prepared

If you’ve ever been in the aftermath of a cyberattack, you know the real pain isn’t just the initial incident—it’s what comes next.

Without the right tools, recovery looks like this:

• Scrambling to figure out what happened and when

• Digging through inboxes and email logs manually

• Trying to remember who else received the email, clicked a link, or responded

• Stressful back-and-forth with banks, vendors, or law enforcement

• Drafting incident reports for your board, insurance company, or compliance officer—without much data to go on
  
  

Even if the financial loss is small, the time and confusion can cost far more.

How Lockwell Helps You Recover from a BEC Attack

Lockwell was designed with real-world attacks in mind. Here’s how it supports you after the click:

1. Automated Incident Logging

As soon as Elle detects a threat, she logs everything—who received the message, what actions were taken, when it was flagged, and what the response was. No need to piece it together manually. You get a full timeline in minutes.

2. Executive-Ready Reports

Need to report what happened to leadership, your board, or your cyber insurance provider? Lockwell generates clear, exportable reports that translate technical events into plain English summaries—plus raw logs if needed. It’s incident response without the overwhelm.

3. Built-In Recovery Guidance

You’re not left wondering what to do next. Elle offers next-step suggestions right from the platform—whether that’s resetting passwords, enabling multi-factor authentication, or notifying a third party. Because in the heat of a crisis, clarity is everything.

Preventing the Next BEC Attack

Responding is critical—but prevention is the long game.

With Lockwell, you’re never in the dark. Elle continuously scans every incoming message, looks for spoofed senders, flags risky patterns, and learns from every threat she encounters.

Other platforms may react. Lockwell anticipates.

Here’s how:

• Email threat scanning

• Automated security coaching for your team

• Risk alerts based on your environment
  
  

And it’s all designed for small teams who don’t have an IT department—or time to chase down phishing attempts.

Why You Can’t Rely on Hope (or IT Tickets)

When something goes wrong, there’s no time to submit a help desk ticket and wait.
You need visibility. You need action. You need answers.

That’s what Lockwell delivers.

It’s built for nonprofits, small businesses, and lean teams who care about security—but don’t have a dedicated person to manage it.
