Unparalleled experience

Our expertise draws from the senior ranks of the law enforcement and counterterrorism communities, with domestic and international experience.

HOW IT WORKS

Detect, deter, and defeat terrorism

Straife’s globally-recognized experts have spent decades working within U.S. and international law enforcement and intelligence agencies including training foreign officials in over 30 countries.

Our team works to understand the terrorist threat, terrorist tactics, and methods, individuals participating in the terrorism, and develops and implement systems, strategies, plans, and solutions that detect and prevent terrorist attacks.

COUNTERTERRORISM SOLUTIONS

Competent and unbiased counterterrorism security advice and planning

Security Threat & Risk Assessment

Our geopolitical risk analysts proactively identify and analyze threats from international terrorist organizations, domestic extremists, and lone actors determined to cause harm to societies, organizations, and individuals.

Protective Security Modelling

Countering terrorism and organized crime requires a whole-of-government response with close coordination among allies and multilateral organizations. Our Protective Security Modelling solutions help agencies substantially reduce the most serious threats requiring national action.

Response Planning

We help national agencies develop and deploy the specialized knowledge and technologies needed to address the most difficult issues in an emergency — before one occurs.

Task Force Operations

Our experts facilitate intelligence exchange at federal, state, and local levels, coordinating between law enforcement and the private sector to achieve shared counterterrorism objectives.

Countering Terrorism Financing

Straife helps partners detect illicit funds — especially those from terrorist organizations — by identifying deficiencies in AML and financial regimes, then building the knowledge and skills to address them.

Human Trafficking

Effective anti-trafficking work demands a multidisciplinary, victim-centered response. Through prevention, enforcement, investigation, and prosecution, Straife supports law enforcement agencies in building programs that work.

Foreign Partner Capacity Building

Understanding a partner’s institutional capacity is essential to a full-spectrum approach. Straife helps allies and partners build the security capabilities needed to fulfill their roles in support of shared objectives.

Training & Development

Our subject matter experts provide on-the-ground training in counterterrorism best practices, helping countries enhance their capacity and align their efforts with global strategic priorities.
