Protective Research and Self-Vetting

$0.00

Discover your vulnerabilities before someone else does.

Competitors, journalists, litigants, activists, former employees and members of the public can access an enormous amount of information about a business and the people behind it. Information that appears insignificant in isolation can become damaging when placed into a larger narrative.

Our protective research service examines your business, executives or key representatives from the perspective of an adversarial researcher.

We identify information that could potentially be used to:

  • Challenge the credibility of your business or leadership

  • Damage an executive’s professional reputation

  • Undermine a public announcement, transaction or expansion

  • Create negative media or social-media attention

  • Support litigation or regulatory complaints

  • Discredit your organization during a competitive process

  • Expose inconsistencies between public claims and available records

The result is a confidential assessment explaining what was located, how it could potentially be presented by an opposing party and what additional context or documentation may be needed to address it.

Protective research can be conducted before:

  • Major announcements or product launches

  • Financing or investment rounds

  • Mergers, acquisitions or business sales

  • Public appointments or leadership changes

  • Media appearances and public campaigns

  • Regulatory applications

  • Competitive bidding processes

  • Litigation or anticipated disputes
