The Problem
Cybercrime hits harder when you're small.
Small teams and individuals take the biggest hits when something goes wrong. The numbers below are why we built Phended.
What We Make
Courses and guides for the people the tech world forgets.
Parents. Retirees. Small business owners. The person at work who got handed the admin password by accident. Everything is written so you could hand it to a family member and expect them to actually finish.
- Short lessons you can finish on a coffee break.
- Plain language. No acronyms unless we explain them.
- Step-by-step playbooks for when things go wrong.
- Free cybersecurity checklists you can actually finish.
Meet Dave
The cybersecurity friend you've been missing.
Dave is a free AI helper who answers security questions in plain English. Safe to paste in a confusing email. Safe to ask what you were afraid to Google.
- Ask anything.
- Paste a suspicious email, describe a pop-up, or just ask what MFA is. Dave won't make you feel silly.
- Actually current.
- Dave reads the same scam alerts and advisories we write about. He won't repeat 2014 advice.
- Plain language.
- No acronyms unless he explains them. No paragraphs where a list will do.
- Yours, free.
- No sign-up, no credit card, no fake urgency. He's just here when you need him.
New: Phended Trace
Sent crypto to a scammer? See where it went.
Phended Trace is a free public-ledger tool that follows stolen Bitcoin, Ethereum, or USDT until it lands somewhere police can subpoena. Built for victims, not investigators.
- Paste an address.
- Bitcoin, Ethereum, or USDT on Tron. We follow the money hop by hop.
- See the cash-out.
- We flag when stolen crypto lands at Binance, Coinbase, or Kraken — the exchanges police can actually subpoena.
- Get a report.
- Download a one-page PDF to attach to your CAFC or IC3 filing. No more vague reports.
- No wallet, no keys.
- Public blockchain data only. We never touch your funds or ask for anything that could move money.
