Firevault launches to help businesses and directors reduce the personal costs and professional implications of data breaches
LONDON, Sept. 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Two entrepreneurs have launched Firevault – Disconnect to Protect™, a world-first solution that protects businesses, directors, and boards from the rising personal and financial impact of cybercrime.
Firevault was launched after seeing too many respected companies both locally and internationally suffer avoidable breaches, heavy fines, and reputational collapse.
“Too many good businesses are being dragged under by breaches they could have avoided,” said Mark Fermor, Co-Founder. “Firevault exists to give directors certainty. If it’s physically offline and disconnected, it can’t be scanned, stolen, or ransomed.”
The stakes are high. The average UK data breach costs £3.2 million, and directors face personal fines of up to £500,000 under ICO rules. In the US, breaches cost $10.2 million on average and CISOs have faced personal prosecution. In the Middle East, fines reach SAR 5 million in Saudi Arabia and AED 5 million in the UAE, with potential imprisonment for serious violations.
Firevault removes that exposure by taking crown-jewel data offline and out of reach.

Bottom line: Firevault removes the exposure point altogether. By keeping crown-jewel data physically disconnected, offline, and identity-locked, it eliminates the financial losses, regulatory risks, and personal consequences that businesses and directors face.
