Intelligence Gathering: Front Line HUMINT Considerations I think since human beings first learned how to talk, they have been spying and telling tails on each other. The only thing that has changed with intelligence gathering from the time Sun Tzu wrote his classic book “The Art of War” in the 5th Century BC and today is the technological advancements that only really started to develop in the 20th century. The basics of HUMINT tradecraft, personal security, and recruiting informants, etc. are still very similar if not the same as in the times of Sun Tzu and earlier. The information and...

Threat Assessments: For Close Protection & Security Management The Threat Assessment is the most important of all the procedures carried out in any close protection, security or business operation but even the most basic threat assessments are regularly overlooked. The reason for a threat assessment is to identify anything that might threaten you, your team and your overall operation. People carry out basic forms of threat assessments all the time: Which bars are safe to drink in, where is it safe to walk at night, do I need locks on the windows of my home etc. A threat assessment must ...

Caribbean Security Threats: A threat assessment for islands of the Caribbean This book was written in 2018 and talks about the multitude of security issues affecting the Caribbean and the problems stemming from the criminal state of Venezuela. Most people’s view of the Caribbean and its more than 7,000 individual islands is that of a tropical paradise: blue seas, white sand beaches, and palm trees. To some extent this is accurate, but what most tourists and visitors either don’t see or are prevented from seeing is the real situation. The Caribbean has always been and continues to be a ...

Social Navigation A Practical Survival Guide For Human Interactions These days I consider myself a Gypsy, a Nomad, a Bedu, and a wanderer, who views patriotism, nationalism, and social conformity as pathetic, since they are just the inventions of other humans’ imaginations. I understand many people have to, and need to, live structured lives, in structured environments that they have been assigned to, but I find it sad that so many will live without realizing anything about life. Maybe my views are simplistic, maybe they are just tribal, or maybe they are just the result of 200,000 years ...
