“We’re probably closer to the beginning or middle of this story than we are to the end.”
As the conflict with Iran continues to evolve, CNBC spoke with Global Guardian Vice President of Client Risk Management Seth Krummrich about the escalation indicators organizations should be watching.
Krummrich highlighted several key triggers, including disruption in the Strait of Hormuz, financial actions by Gulf states, and the possibility of a U.S. mass casualty event. Any of these developments could signal a significant shift in the threat environment and materially affect organizations operating in or tied to the region.
He added that for businesses with people or operations on the ground, these indicators may serve as critical decision points for reassessing contingency, evacuation, and continuity plans.
