Across the U.S., executives face a rising tide of threats — from online disinformation to direct violence. Recent surveys confirm what DSS sees daily: more executives are being targeted, and more companies are expanding protection beyond the office to homes and families.
The Threat Picture
- 40% of U.S. firms report increased violent threats against senior leaders.
- 3 out of 4 face disinformation campaigns amplifying personal risks.
- Sectors most exposed: technology, healthcare, defense, and finance.
DSS’ Integrated Response
At DSS, we combine intelligence-led risk advisory with tactical protective solutions:
- Intelligence & Risk Advisory: Led by Greg Sanfilippo, our team provides threat monitoring, vulnerability assessments, and strategic mitigation plans.
- Tactical Response Officer (TRO) Program: Highly vetted former law enforcement/military professionals trained in firearms, crisis de-escalation, medical response, and counter-surveillance — prepared for discreet yet decisive protection.
Why It Matters
Executives are more than business leaders — they symbolize reputation and trust. Protecting them is protecting the enterprise. DSS’ dual approach ensures organizations are equipped to both anticipate threats and respond when it matters most.
