With a team of internationally acclaimed experts, Defuse Global delivers unrivalled expertise

With nearly three decades at Scotland Yard and British Intelligence, I’ve developed specialized skills in threat assessment and risk mitigation for high-profile individuals. As a Counter-Terrorism Security Coordinator, I created security strategies for UK royalty and government officials.

I founded Defuse Global to extend this elite protection to high-risk clients. Following the 2016 assassination of MP Jo Cox, I established Parliament’s threat management team. I hold an MSc in Security Management and am recognized as one of the UK’s most trusted security advisors for high-profile individuals.

3. We evaluate the true risk level using the same methods that protect world leaders
4. We handle difficult conversations with authorities and platforms so you don’t have to
