For Executive Protection Teams: Managed Digital Intelligence for Physical Security
​
As an Executive Protection (EP) professional, your mission is to safeguard principals from physical threats. In today's interconnected world, digital threats are no longer separate from physical security; they are often the precursor. Online reconnaissance, doxing, malicious chatter, and deepfake impersonations can directly inform or enable physical attacks, making digital intelligence a critical, non-negotiable component of modern EP. The absence of robust digital threat intelligence can leave critical blind spots in your physical security planning.
​
DigitalStakeout provides managed digital threat intelligence and remediation, acting as a force multiplier for your physical EP operations. We deliver actionable insights from the digital realm, enabling your team to anticipate, prepare for, and neutralize threats before they manifest in the physical world, ensuring comprehensive, proactive defense for your principals.

Bridging the Gap: Digital Threats & Physical Risk for EP Teams
​
Digital threats directly impact physical security in several crucial ways, demanding a unified approach:
​
-
Pre-Attack Reconnaissance: Adversaries use open-source intelligence (OSINT) to gather details about routines, residences, travel patterns, family members, and vulnerabilities, all of which inform physical attack planning.
-
Doxing & Location Exposure: Public release of private information (e.g., home address, travel itinerary) can directly lead to physical harassment, stalking, or direct targeting.
-
Incitement & Mobilization: Online chatter, hate speech, calls to action, or organized protests can rapidly escalate into physical demonstrations, confrontations, or direct threats.
-
Deepfake & Impersonation: Used to manipulate schedules, gain access to secure locations, or sow confusion that compromises physical security protocols (e.g., a deepfake call from a principal changing travel plans).
-
Travel Risk Intelligence: Digital insights on local sentiment, protests, crime rates, and specific threat actors in travel destinations are crucial for advance work and real-time situational awareness.
-
Disgruntled Employee Signals: Online activity from current or former employees can indicate potential physical threats or security breaches.​
