I founded ComSec to meet the ongoing need for a professional company specializing in detecting and mitigating the risks of technical security breaches and providing cutting edge counterespionage advisory services.My 27 years of experience in global counterintelligence, including two decades with the DoD, Special Projects Consultant to U.S. and Allied U.S. Support Activities and Counterintelligence Field Activity (CIFA), gives me a real-world advantage in advising clients to develop and implement technical risk management programs, or deploy countermeasures following a breach. This advantage enabled me to build a forward-thinking, proactive global counterintelligence company providing world class consultative services and exclusive product solutions. I’ve led ComSec to distinction as one of the first companies to uncover a nation-state sponsored espionage event targeting a Fortune 500 business, taking my team across the globe to conduct on-site inspections in Beijing, Shanghai, Singapore, Mumbai, Mangalore and several U.S. locations when the business’ networks were breached.I’ve positioned ComSec as a provider of consultative services as well as specialty products, including two versions of a mobile field-ready backpack signal intelligence kit (Kestrel Surface RF Locator - KSRFL) I developed and used successfully in the field against a nation-sponsored espionage event.Specialties: Counterespionage | TSCM | Cyber TSCM | Counterintelligence (CI) | HUMINT | Communications Security (ComSec) | Counterespionage Consulting | Counterterrorism | Electronic Eavesdropping Detection | Information Security | Executive Risk Management | High Tech Product Development Show less

Whidden, and I’m honored to build on his legacy as the organization’s Executive Director. Guided by Whidden’s motto that the greatest mistake we can make would be to miss the changes, I focus my efforts not just on expanding our membership but also expanding the caliber and breadth of our research and education on the tactics and technological solutions needed to keep one step ahead of the ever-evolving world of hostile espionage activity.To that end, I work to ensure that our annual Washington D.C. conference is both an opportunity for our 80+ worldwide members to gather and build professional relationships that will serve as a continuing resource for support and shared ideas, and an educational event designed to sharpen our skill set in leveraging the most advanced technology and tactics in the industry.I am also dedicated to reintroducing the exclusive and comprehensive Certified Counterespionage Information Security Manager (CCISM) certification program through an LMS. The CCISM certification program, only available through the ERII, addresses the basics of engineering and TSCM/Cyber TSCM/Counterespionage principles, and is the benchmark of excellence for TSCM professionals.
