Often, the loudest threats are not the most dangerous. Discover a more intelligent way to assess and manage personal safety.
'Anyone interested in protecting themselves or others should read this book.' - Neil Basu QPM, former head of UK Counter Terrorism Policing
Take the guesswork out of protecting clients.
Public figures are increasingly receiving death threats. Ordinary people are struggling with toxic behaviour in the workplace. Psychological and reputational harm are both on the rise. How can security and HR professionals identify, assess, and manage targeted threats smarter in what feels like an ever more dangerous world?
Drawing on the latest research and methodologies used by government departments, Philip Grindell, one of the world's most trusted leaders and advisors in lone actor, fixated, and workplace threats, provides a proven, science-based framework together with practical personal security measures that will help you take the guesswork out of helping clients and colleagues feel safer.
Bringing together elements of forensic psychology, protective intelligence, and personal safety, and with contributions from experts including former members of the FBI and US Secret Service, forensic psychologists and protection specialists, he sets out a practical blueprint for an intelligence-led response to some of the most challenging security threats we face today.
'Timely and valuable to anyone in the public eye.' - Richard Madeley , Writer and broadcaster
'Whether you're dealing with physical security, online threats or crisis management, this book is a comprehensive and useful guide to keeping people and assets safe.' - G.B. Jones, Chief Safety & Security Officer, FIFA World Cup 2026; former FBI Special Agent
'This book is a significant resource to anyone involved in helping others feel safer.' - Kim Leadbeater, Member of Parliament for Spen Valley (sister of Jo Cox MP)
About the Author: With 30 years of experience as a Scotland Yard Detective, including secondment to British Intelligence, Philip Grindell has honed his skills in threat intelligence, risk management, and protective security. He has served as a Counter-Terrorism Security Coordinator for high-profile events, including Royal and Government events, ensuring detailed contingency plans for safety from terrorist attacks. His expertise in identifying physical, reputational, and psychological threats was put to the test during my time when he was made responsible for the protection of MPs following the fatal attack on Jo Cox. A Chartered Security professional with a MSc in Security Management, he has become one of the UK's most trusted leaders and advisors in lone actor, fixated, and workplace threats.
