CEO at Ultrascan-Research

Our enemies are no longer nations and do not exist on a map but are non-state actors and unknown individuals. Look around you, who do you fear? Can you see a face, a uniform, a flag? No.

Yet, before breakfast in their pajamas, they can do more damage from their laptops than an intelligence agent can during a year in the field. Online organized crime doesn’t know law and order, has a Wild West mentality, and is lawless to the core. Anarchy.

While transparency became fashionable in the West, the world is not more transparent now. Today it’s more opaque, in the shadows, and that’s where we do battle. So, before you declare that irrelevant, ask yourselves, how safe do you feel?

The scope of my work is Anti Money Laundering – Transnational Organized Crime and the Nexus Terrorism. Where crime is shifting from criminal-inspired activity into an ideology-driven terror funding mechanism. I have the tools and resources. Managed appropriately, we effectively monitor with impact assessments in place!

Investigations and research generate HUMINT and access to primary sources in and outside the chain of command. My vision is to induce a new security policy and Geo-policy one first has to align with the active policies for intelligence analysis.

Unlimited access to information and people gave me a good sense for seemingly insignificant or isolated events, TradeCraft and “Butterfly Effect”​

In the past 18 years, I have set up a human intelligence network, coordinating the international cooperation of 3320 experts in over 69 countries. These experts provide the basis for Professional Investigative Research Services. Corporate Investigations or be your source for effective risk management and Policy to mitigate crime trends or imminent incidents. Security impact assessments in place.

Researching the NEXUS Organized Crime Terrorism through undercover investigations elevates security risks, as operational security is maintained, it is most gratifying to reveal financial crime trends, tracing cross-jurisdiction assets, map networks of anonymous suspects in hostile environments, and enable international security operations to disrupt terror funding or fraud.

I have extensive experience with security audits detecting, identifying, locating, mapping, monitoring, analyzing, and predicting perpetrators of cross border fraud, money laundering, and the planning, funding, communications, and support of terrorism for local or international extremists as a fast-growing component of ideological as well as geopolitical struggle.
