A New Era of Risk

Every modern organization—corporate, academic, or government—faces a single truth: security threats have evolved faster than most institutions can adapt.

From active shooters to insider threats, ransomware to workplace violence, the challenge is no longer identifying danger—it’s anticipating it, mitigating it, and recovering from it without collapsing under pressure.

That’s where CrisisWire comes in.

We’re not a consulting firm that writes reports. We are a full-spectrum integrated threat management and emergency preparedness partner—bridging the gap between policy, people, and performance.

Our mission:

“To make every organization ready for the day it hopes never comes.”

From Threat to Continuity: The CrisisWire Integration Model

The CrisisWire Advantage lies in one principle—integration. Where others specialize in one domain—cyber, physical, behavioral, or procedural—we unify all four under one operational strategy:

Behavioral Threat Assessment & Management (BTAM)We train organizations to recognize and intervene before violence occurs, using proven behavioral threat assessment models. Informed by research from The Prepared Leader: Threat Assessment, Emergency Preparedness, and Safety for Colleges, Institutions, and Businesses.
Physical Security & Access Control Our consultants conduct comprehensive facility audits and develop layered access control blueprints, as detailed in Locked Down: The Access Control Blueprint for Safer Schools, Colleges, and Corporate America.
Emergency Response & Crisis Management Planning Every plan aligns with FEMA, CISA, and DHS standards, ensuring compliance and operational clarity under the Incident Command System (ICS/NIMS) structure.
Continuity of Operations & Leadership Resilience We help executives understand that leadership failure is often a crisis of clarity, not competence. Our leadership workshops draw inspiration from Uniformed Silence (An LAPD Memoir) and field-tested command strategies developed under high-pressure environments.

Why Integration Matters

Traditional safety programs are siloed—security handles locks, HR handles training, IT handles cybersecurity, and leadership signs off without alignment. This fragmentation breeds delay, confusion, and liability. CrisisWire eliminates that fragmentation by creating one unified operational language across all departments. When your teams share one playbook, you eliminate hesitation—and hesitation is what kills in a crisis.

Our process delivers:

Shared terminology and reporting standards.
Unified response procedures for physical and digital incidents.
Crisis communication plans that protect leadership and brand reputation.

This is the same model trusted by law enforcement, emergency management agencies, and corporate security directors nationwide.

Sector-Specific Expertise

Corporate America

CrisisWire provides scalable security frameworks for enterprises managing high-value assets, executive protection, and reputational risk. Our approach aligns with leadership best practices found in The Prepared Leader—where resilience starts with decision-making before crisis hits.

We specialize in:

Workplace violence prevention and policy drafting
Threat management team development
Crisis communication and continuity strategy

Education & Campus Safety

Educational institutions remain high-value soft targets. Our expertise in campus threat assessment, violence prevention, and emergency drills transforms reactive campuses into proactive safety networks. Our programs mirror the lessons from Campus Under Siege: Why Universities Are Soft Targets—and How to Fix Them, giving administrators and faculty the tools to protect both students and reputations.

Government & Infrastructure

Municipal agencies, public works, and government facilities face operational and reputational exposure every day. CrisisWire consultants—many with military, DHS, and LAPD experience—develop Continuity of Government (COG) frameworks and Critical Infrastructure Protection plans based on field-proven practices. We integrate with federal benchmarks from ASIS International, FEMA, and Hawai‘i OHS TVP (law.hawaii.gov/ohs/tvp) for compliance and coordination.

Personal Security & Armed Response Training

For clients who face targeted threats or personal risk, we offer personal threat assessment services and firearm readiness training compliant with state and federal laws.

Our approach follows the operational insights of The Concealed Carry Legal Map & Handgun, AR-15 + Shotgun Care Guide—bridging safety, legality, and skill development for civilians, executives, and professionals.

Our Credentials. Your Confidence.

CrisisWire’s operational pedigree is unmatched. Our staff and contributors include certified professionals in:

FEMA ICS/NIMS Emergency Management
DHS Active Shooter Preparedness
ALICE Certified Instructor Programs
Behavioral Threat Assessment (BTAM)
Military and Law Enforcement Command Operations

Our founder’s law enforcement and government protection background, detailed in Uniformed Silence and reinforced by national readiness frameworks in Unmatched Arsenal, form the foundation of every consulting engagement we deliver.

Proactive Preparedness Is the New Compliance

Executives once saw crisis management as optional; today, it defines fiduciary duty. Leadership is no longer judged solely by financial success—it’s measured by how effectively an organization anticipates, mitigates, and survives disruption.

CrisisWire helps leadership teams navigate:

Duty-of-care and liability exposure
Media crisis and communication fallout
Operational recovery and brand rehabilitation

As we teach in The Prepared Leader, “Preparedness is not a plan—it’s a mindset.”

The CrisisWire Advantage

When you choose CrisisWire, you don’t get a vendor—you gain a strategic partner. We’re the only firm combining:

Law enforcement credibility
Military-grade readiness frameworks
Academic threat assessment expertise
And real-world operational insight from decades in protective service and crisis management

Every program we build integrates seamlessly with your infrastructure, culture, and leadership priorities—ensuring that safety doesn’t disrupt your mission, it protects it.
