Protective intelligence, grounded in counterterrorism experience.
Proactive threat assessment and intelligence that identifies and mitigates risk before it reaches you.
Protective intelligence is the discipline of finding and assessing threats before they become incidents. It is the difference between guarding a door and knowing who is trying to come through it. TB Defense brings this capability from real counterterrorism experience, including assessing threats against public officials, and applies the same method of threat assessment and protective intelligence to private clients, executives, and companies wherever they need protection.
What it includes
- Threat assessment on a specific person, group, or situation
- Investigation of concerning individuals, including stalkers and fixated persons
- Online and social-media threat monitoring and analysis
- Surveillance detection around a principal, residence, or office
- Pre-event and pre-travel intelligence and advisories
- A written assessment with prioritized, practical recommendations
How it works
We start with the concern and the context: who or what is the worry, what has happened, and what the routine looks like. We investigate and assess the threat, judge how credible and capable it is, and recommend the protective measures that actually fit it. Intelligence drives the plan, so you spend on the real risk, not on guesswork.
Who it is for
Executives, public figures, and companies facing a specific threat or a person of concern, and counsel and security teams who need an independent, intelligence-led read before they act.
Common questions
What is protective intelligence?
Protective intelligence is the proactive work of identifying, investigating, and assessing threats to a person or organization before they escalate, so protection can be built around real risk rather than assumption.
How is this different from hiring a bodyguard?
A protective detail manages risk in the moment. Protective intelligence works upstream, finding and evaluating the threat early, so the detail, if one is even needed, is the right size and in the right place.
Can you assess a specific person who is worrying us?
Yes. Investigating and assessing a person of concern, such as a stalker, a fixated individual, or a threatening former employee, is core protective intelligence work.
