Established in 2013. The Story of LIFARS People often ask how the name LIFARS was created and what it means. Some thought our founder, Ondrej Krehel, is an avid fan of ballet and named the company after one of the greatest ballet dancers and choreographers of the 20th century - Sergei Lifar. The truth, however, is even simpler - and there is always beauty in simplicity. Ondrej was brainstorming one day, some years back, and decided to write a few keywords that he associated with our soon-to-be-born company down on a piece of paper. These words are essentially the steps to containing some sticky situations: L - Liberty - After New York City's Statue of Liberty I - Incident F - Forensics A - And R - Response, Recovery, or Remediation S - Services And there it is. Ondrej simply took the first letters and voilà - LIFARS was born.

One day I opened my email and there was a message demanding to send money to a Bitcoin wallet in order to avoid possible naked pictures of me and my wife being shared online and sent to my family and friends. Even though I was sure I had no naked pictures in my devices, I contacted LIFARS in order to help me identify and be 100% sure everything was okay. I was surprised how fast they responded and how secured they made me fell after their analysis and report (that I actually could understand!). It's a crazy world out there and people are trying to steal your money and privacy at any costs.
