Sarah runs the firm’s 24-hour business-email-compromise response desk. When a company wires funds to a fraudster impersonating a vendor, executive or counsel, her team’s job is to recall, freeze and recover before the money disappears — her average time to a working freeze on an active BEC is under 48 hours.

She has recovered funds from every major U.S. banking network and from correspondent banks in more than 30 countries, and she advises CFOs and GCs on payment-control design to stop the next attack before it lands.

Sarah co-authored the American Bankers Association’s white paper on BEC recovery best practices.
