Cyber Threat Intelligence & External Risk
I help security leaders and executives reduce external exposure, detect identity compromise from infostealers and data breaches, stop impersonation and fraud threats, and make informed decisions during incidents.
Track Record
A selection of high-impact projects, investigations, and industry contributions spanning over a decade in cyber threat intelligence.
Expertise
My consulting work spans these core areas of external threat intelligence and risk.
Monitoring and analyzing threats from dark web forums, marketplaces, and underground channels. I help organizations understand what adversaries are saying about them and planning against them.
Assessing exposure of executives and key personnel to identity compromise, credential theft, and targeted attacks. This includes infostealer analysis and personal data exposure mapping.
Deep expertise in compromised credentials, session tokens, and sensitive data exposed through infostealer malware. I've analyzed millions of stealer logs and understand how threat actors weaponize this data.
Identifying brand abuse, executive impersonation schemes, and fraud infrastructure targeting organizations. I've worked extensively in crypto where these threats are particularly sophisticated.
When things go wrong, I help teams understand what happened, what's exposed, and what the adversary perspective looks like. Rapid intelligence during breaches and security incidents.
Attribution, threat actor profiling, and investigative support. I've collaborated with law enforcement globally and understand how to build intelligence that supports real-world action.
I typically work as an embedded consultant or advisor, either augmenting existing security teams or providing specialized expertise on specific problems. Most engagements start with a conversation about what you're trying to solve.
Process
A straightforward process designed for busy executives and security leaders.
A brief conversation to understand your organization, concerns, and what you're looking to achieve. No commitment required.
I conduct an initial assessment of your external exposure to identify immediate risks and demonstrate value before any ongoing engagement.
Clear, executive-ready deliverables with prioritized findings and actionable recommendations your team can implement immediately.
Optional continuous monitoring and retainer engagement for organizations that want persistent visibility into external threats.
All engagements are conducted with strict confidentiality. Sensitive findings are communicated through secure channels, and client information is never disclosed.
