DSS Names Greg Sanfilippo as Vice President – Intelligence, Risk Advisory & Security Initiatives

DSS is proud to announce the debut of a new division focusing on enhancing risk assessment and intelligence integration. The new division will be headed by former NYPD Sergeant Greg Sanfilippo, as DSS Vice President – Intelligence, Risk Advisory & Security Initiatives.

In his new role, Greg develops and analyzes intelligence from diverse law enforcement agencies to establish threat mitigation strategies and identify security vulnerabilities facing DSS clients. DSS is fully equipped to deliver comprehensive Risk Advisory and Vulnerability Assessment services.

Greg leads our expert team conducting in-depth evaluations of potential threats and vulnerabilities across all client locations, assessing the associated risks and their potential impact on operations. Based on these findings, DSS formulates targeted, effective strategies to mitigate threats and reduce overall risk exposure.

Greg possesses decades of law enforcement and military experience. He joined the City of New York Police Department (NYPD) in 2008, rising to the role of Sergeant and serving as a supervisor with NYPD Shield, a public-private intelligence sharing and counterterrorism program that has become a model for similar programs across the U.S. and worldwide. DSS is a long- time partner with NYPD Shield and the Global Shield Network.

At NYPD Shield, Greg liaised with private sector security executives across the New York City metro region to identify criminal and terrorist activity and provide effective deterrence and incident response. During his time with the NYPD, he received the NYC Police Foundation’s Hemmerdinger Award for Excellence and the NYPD’s McGee Award.

Greg has spent more than two decades with the U.S. Marine Corps and Army Reserves filling command positions at the Platoon, Detachment, and Company-levels. Deployed overseas, he successfully oversaw the integration of force protection, military intelligence, communications, maneuver support, and logistics for Division and Brigade Personal Security Detachments operating in hostile areas, earning the U.S. Army’s Bronze Star.

Greg holds a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from Seton Hall University and a Master of Art’s in Business and Organizational Security Management from Webster University.

“As our clients face an increasing range of threats, Greg’s addition to the DSS team will enhance the high-level threat assessment and protective services we provide,” commented Mario J. Doyle, CPP, President & COO. “He possesses significant expertise in infrastructure security, threat vulnerability assessments, executive protection, force protection, intelligence, and team management that will increase the security of our clients and enhance DSS’ ability to anticipate potential problems and respond effectively to an ever-changing threat landscape.”

Welcome to the DSS Team, Greg!
