Security professionals face an impossible challenge: threats evolve in real-time, but intelligence flows through systems built for a slower world. While adversaries coordinate across domains – launching cyber attacks to support physical operations, or exploiting supply chain vulnerabilities to enable broader campaigns – defenders are often trapped in organizational silos, Read more…
The Security, Resilience & Defence landscape is evolving at breakneck speed. Physical threats emerge unpredictably, supply chain disruptions cascade globally, critical infrastructure faces new vulnerabilities, and security incidents unfold in real-time across multiple domains. Yet our approach to sharing critical intelligence remains frustratingly antiquated – trapped in a cycle of Read more…
NVIC 11-02, officially titled “Guidance for the Implementation and Assessment of Security Plans for Facilities Subject to the Maritime Transportation Security Act (MTSA)”, is a U.S. Coast Guard Navigation and Vessel Inspection Circular issued in 2002.

While consultants produce impressive binders of findings that gather dust, executives need to understand how security investments directly impact bottom-line performance. This disconnect Read more…
For too long, the world of security – both physical and cyber – has often operated in fragmented silos. We’ve seen reactive measures deployed after the fact, physical barriers erected in isolation from digital defenses, and strategies built on assumptions rather than concrete intelligence. But the threat landscape is evolving Read more…
AI can provide automated threat detection, predictive analytics, and AI-driven surveillance to help clients mitigate risk, but how can it be applied to run your security risk management company more efficiently, from an Operations perspective? Picture a security operations center: advanced AI systems actively monitoring client facilities, analyzing threat data, Read more…
As artificial intelligence (AI) rapidly reshapes the Security & Resilience landscape, professionals in the field are facing a critical inflection point. Tools once considered cutting-edge – automated threat detection, predictive analytics, AI-driven surveillance – are becoming commoditized. In this environment, it’s easy to assume that the future belongs exclusively to Read more…
Studies suggest that people tend to fear loss more than missed opportunity. This phenomenon is often explained by loss aversion, a concept from behavioral economics and psychology. This cognitive bias – first identified by Nobel Prize-winning psychologists Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky – posits that people feel the pain of Read more…
For over 97% of Americans alive today, we have only known a world where freedom is the desired destiny of each nation, democracy provides the best model for society, technology improves human welfare, and the United States stands as the leading global superpower. But an intense competition is now unfolding Read more…
In an era of rapid technological advancement, artificial intelligence has emerged as a transformative force across industries. Nowhere is this more evident—or consequential—than in the realm of national security. As nations navigate increasingly complex threat landscapes, AI offers unprecedented capabilities that are reshaping defense strategies, intelligence gathering, and security protocols Read more…
