CrisisWire Threat Management Solutions provides multi-disciplinary threat assessment consultation dedicated to the prevention of targeted acts of violence. Through the cooperative integration of behavioral analysis, security expertise, and evidence-based methodologies detailed in The Prepared Leader and Threat Assessment Handbook, CrisisWire helps organizations identify, assess, and manage situations where the risk of violence is imminent and/or anticipated.

Our consultation framework draws on 40 years of operational experience across military security (USAF nuclear weapons facilities), law enforcement (LAPD violent crimes investigation), diplomatic protection (U.S. Embassy Baghdad), and campus safety operations, combined with BTAM certification and published research on Academia.edu.

CrisisWire Consultation Model

Organizations may engage CrisisWire's expert consultation services after their internal threat assessment team has conducted initial evaluation, or when the organization lacks formal threat assessment capability. Our consultation integrates Secret Service NTAC, FBI, and DHS frameworks with practical implementation strategies.

Cases Appropriate for CrisisWire Consultation:

Escalated Risk Cases When a person of concern's risk level exceeds your internal team's capability to address, CrisisWire's advanced threat assessment expertise provides specialized evaluation using methodologies from "School Threat Assessments 2025: Preventing Violence Before It Happens" and "How to Conduct an Insider Threat Audit in 10 Steps".

Complex Multi-Disciplinary Cases When your team would benefit from external expert perspective integrating behavioral analysis, physical security assessment from Locked Down: The Access Control Playbook, and workplace violence prevention strategies.

Criminal Behavior Concerns When a person of concern's actions are criminal in nature requiring law enforcement coordination—drawing on 12 years LAPD experience investigating violent crimes, organized crime, and gang activity documented in Uniformed Silence.

Organizations Without Internal Teams When your organization lacks established threat assessment capability and requires immediate expert evaluation and intervention planning aligned with FEMA IS-906, IS-907, and IS-915 standards.
