Our Story

Why We Started

Founded by a U.S. military veteran, Cipher Sleuths was built on the discipline, attention to detail, and commitment to mission that defines military service. After years of applying intelligence and investigative skills in high-stakes environments, our founder recognized a gap: individuals and small businesses in Virginia lacked access to professional, trustworthy investigation services without the overhead of large national firms. Cipher Sleuths fills that gap — delivering enterprise-grade investigative capability with the personal attention of a local firm.

Based in Berryville, Virginia. Serving clients statewide and nationwide.
