The Rise of Corporate Espionage: What Executives Need to Know About Modern Threats

“All of that tradecraft that you used to think 20, 30, 40 years ago was just in the movies, just in spy novels…make absolutely no doubt whatsoever, it has completely infiltrated the Western business environment. And now it's something that C-suite leaders have to be thinking about, and they have to be asking themselves that key question of what is it I have and how am I going to protect it?”

On the Tomorrowist Podcast from SHRM, Global Guardian CEO Dale Buckner discusses how nation-state tactics are rapidly moving into the private sector, and why business leaders must rethink how they approach security. From cyber theft and insider threats to supply chain infiltration, the risks facing executives are multiplying. Dale shares why due diligence, a “trust but verify” mindset, and integrating security across people and systems are essential for resilience.

Inside the Sinaloa cartel: One year of terror

“The natural conclusion (of the war) is this is going to keep going until there’s a winner. You’re going to eventually have one group taking over control of the original Sinaloa cartel territory or you could see agreement to split territory…but I really don’t think that’s likely. I think this is going to keep going.”

In a recent Border Report article, Global Guardian Director of Intelligence Mike Ballard provides insight into the status of the Sinaloa Cartel following a year of internal conflict. Since September 2024, a violent power struggle has unfolded between the sons of El Chapo and the faction loyal to El Mayo.

 "When you're fighting in an urban area, if you want to hold ground—not just attack and retreat, as the Israeli army has done so far—you need a huge amount of personnel and equipment. And it's much more difficult if the urban environment has been destroyed, as it has been in much of Gaza."

In a new piece for Diari Ara (Barcelona), Global Guardian's VP of Client Risk Management Seth Krummrich gave his perspective on the reported decision by the Israeli government to take complete control of Gaza, and what that means for the future of the conflict.

Executives look to beef up building security after Manhattan shooting

"Modern office buildings have access control systems that can freeze elevators in place, shut down turnstiles, and remotely lock doors, said Buckner, who has several clients in 345 Park, and described the building’s access control and surveillance system as 'relatively sophisticated.' In the wake of the assassination of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, companies began to take a harder look at social media threats and early indicators of violence as well. Buckner now questions whether that will be enough." 

In Semafor, Global Guardian founder and CEO Dale Buckner weighed in on efforts to build up corporate security in the wake of the deadly shooting at 345 Park Avenue in New York. Companies must now find ways to convincingly reassure their workers that they can keep them safe without creating an oppressive atmosphere.
