Reducing risks and defusing threats with tailored intelligence investigations and behavioural threat management

Who are we?

My objective is to ensure that my clients are fully informed, have real clarity about the issues facing them, and enjoy a heightened sense of security, allowing them to safely return to business as usual.

Defuse Global is the UK’s leading consultancy in behavioural threat assessment, management, and protective security.

I was personally trained by Dr. Robert A. Fein, Ph.D., ABP, Forensic and National Security Psychologist and the co-author of Preventing Assassination: US Secret Service Exceptional Case Study Project considered to be the originator of behavioural threat assessment.

I was personally selected to create, set up, and run the team in the UK’s House of Parliament to investigate threats, abuse, and intimidation and protect our national politicians.

I identified and then helped prevent a terrorist attack against a Member of Parliament, using the same behavioural threat assessment and management processes that Defuse Global now delivers.

I was previously responsible for the UK’s protective security programme for all UK Politicians.

As a former Counter Terrorism Security Co-ordinator (CT SecCo), I was responsible for the protective security plans of large-scale or significant policing operations and events involving the Royal Family, military and Government.

When you choose Defuse Global, you know that you are getting a Chartered Security Professional who is the very best in his field and has genuine, real-world experience.

Being uninformed, engaging in conflicts, facing harassment, threats, or hostility can lead to feelings of anxiety, paranoia, and hypervigilance, which often hinder optimal performance.

Such challenges can swiftly dominate your thoughts, disrupt your sleep patterns, impact decision making and adversely affect both your personal and professional spheres.

I specialise in the prevention, investigation, and prompt resolution of genuine concerns, while also mitigating associated risks, thereby facilitating a return to normalcy in your business operations.

I limit my clientele to a select few at any given time. This approach enables me to provide a highly personalized service, as I understand that you seek the utmost quality of service tailored to your unique situation.

Philip is an expert in problem-solving threats emanating from the online environment. He has a unique skill set derived from several years of work with Members of Parliament and other high-profile individuals. There are few, if any, individuals in the country with the experience of Philip in this field of work.
Simon Causer former Head of Security at The City of London Corporation
Philip has presented his craft to members of the Security Institute and there is no doubt that he is a master of this niche area of security advice. Stalkers and fixated people are often unpredictable, but as far as it can be predicted, Philip has a solid expert viewpoint that only comes from experience and academic rigour. There is no one else I would seek advice from if I found my family, friends or colleagues being victimised by such a stalker.
Rick Mounfield Chartered Security Professional and former CEO of the Security Institute
I can't recommend Philip highly enough, he is extremely experienced, calm and knowledgeable. At a difficult time, he was able to cut through the noise and provide clear and practical advice, immediately putting you at ease and giving you confidence in the future. Thank you just doesn’t seem, enough Philip.
