  • Provide analytic support to inform security posture decisions made by the Chief Security Officer and protective leadership.
  • Coordinate with protective operations, residential security, and facilities stakeholders to ensure intelligence is reflected in planning and awareness.

Reputation & Digital Risk

  • Monitor reputational and digital risk indicators, including online targeting, doxxing, impersonation, misinformation, activism, and hostile narrative development.
  • Assess how online rhetoric, digital exposure, or reputational issues may correlate with physical security risk.
  • Support intelligence reporting for legal, communications, and advisory stakeholders when reputational issues create or amplify protective concerns.
  • Track and escalate online activity that may signal fixation, mobilization, or convergence with real-world threats.

Reporting & Decision Support

  • Produce concise, accurate, and timely intelligence products for the Intelligence Manager and other authorized stakeholders.
  • Support the Intelligence Manager in preparing executive-level briefings and protective intelligence updates for senior leadership.
  • Maintain clear documentation, analytic records, and case notes in accordance with organizational protocols.
