Rising Threats to Executives:
From the Boardroom to the Public Stage

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.
