Reputation can be threatened by a few keystrokes. Within minutes, an attack on reputation can circle the globe, resulting in harm that may last for years. False allegations, published as fact, are the core elements that put reputation at risk. The source may be an unscrupulous competitor, political rival, careless journalist or just a hack. If a serious attack on reputation is not aggressively confronted, the damage may be incalculable.

Effectively protecting reputation combines legal, investigative and technical methods with an understanding of electronic media. The tools of reputational recovery, when used by experienced professionals, can quickly turn the tide and ensure that the same false statements will not appear again. They are time tested and they work.

  • Find the source.

  • Know the facts.

  • Build the evidence.

  • Confront the attack.

  • Use the public forum.

  • The legal option.
