×Close MINDSTAR SECURITY & PROFILING - SERVICES COMPREHENSIVE SECURITY ASSESSMENT Professionals at Mindstar Security & Profiling work personally with each executive and his/her family by providing customized security assessments from the vantage point of the inventive, determined and tech-savvy human or adversary. Mindstar Security & Profiling will focus on the security trifecta of Internet, Physical and IT security by conducting three security assessments which will be integrated into a comprehensive security assessment. Choose one assessment, or combine all three for a full analysis. Executive Internet Profile (EIP™): Assessment of the online presence and profile of the executive(s) and their family members’ Internet and social media presence. While many executives may not use an abundance of social media themselves, malicious activities from adversaries or non-malicious postings by family members, friends, business associates and unknown third parties may result in unwanted public exposure. Physical Security Assessment: Assessment of home(s) and corporate facilities, perimeters, staffing, doors/windows, alarm/surveillance systems, and review of security policies. This assessment will be conducted from the vantage point of the motivated person who wants to gain access to private property and assets within the properties. IT/Wireless Security Assessment: Assessment of home WiFi, home networks, routers, children/spouse use of smartphones, smart appliances, gaming systems, safe apps and secure online shopping. This assessment is conducted from the perspective of a hacker, scammer or social engineer who wants to gain access to private data, systems and networks. Close ×Close MINDSTAR SECURITY & PROFILING - SERVICES CYBER RISK ASSESSMENT Whether it is for the organization or the family office, this tailored assessment provides critical infrastructure asset owners and operators with a comprehensive technical review and cyber evaluation of the architecture and components that comprise their operations. In today’s cyber environment, cyber risk can originate from vectors other than the actual hardware and software that comprise the network. Risk can stem from malware, personal devices, dated policies or procedures, corrupted apps, phishing attacks, or employee mistakes. In some cases, attacks are launched from authenticated users and systems by malicious or non-malicious insiders. In order to provide a assessment of the risk landscape (office or home), Mindstar’s cyber team will work interactively with your IT and operations/business personnel to evaluate the current architecture, technology, policies and processes, with focus on three key areas: 1) Architecture/Hardware and Software: Systems, Networks and Devices 2) Internal Controls: Policies, Training, Incident Response and Insider Threat 3) External Risk: Phishing, Ransomware, Malware and Internet Threats Close ×Close MINDSTAR SECURITY & PROFILING - SERVICES CYBER INVESTIGATIONS When an organization, an executive, or a family member is threatened, harassed, or stalked, understanding the messaging and intent of the threat is extremely important. In today’s environment, a thorough investigation must include the combined elements of: • A Technical Review & Analysis • A Cyber – Internet/Social Media Review • A Psychological Profiling Assessment In addition to assessing imminent, recidivist or one-time threat, investigations can be applied to areas such as: • Executive candidate searches • Merger & acquisition due diligence • Embezzlement cases • Insider threat • Non-criminal legal issues • Corporate re-organizations (e.g., downsizing or personnel changeover) Close ×Close MINDSTAR SECURITY & PROFILING - SERVICES PROFILING & EXPERT WITNESS The methodology of behavioral or criminal profiling has been used for over three decades to assist investigators and forensic analysts in incident investigation. Profiling is defined as the process by which an incident is evaluated and assessed from a behavioral perspective in order to provide social scientific insight into the individual or individuals who may have committed the offense or determine the dangerousness of the threat actor. Mindstar provides and applies behavioral profiling to a wide variety of cases and situations including: • Death Threats • Extortion • Ransom/Kidnapping • Cyber or Physical Stalking • Cyber-Bullying or Harassment • Due Diligence – Hiring or Termination Families and family members when faced with a suspicious or threatening situation should be provided with the most robust information possible by understanding the motive, intent, and anticipated behavior of the threat actor(s). These behavioral assessments may supplement on ongoing legal case (criminal or civil) as depositions or affidavits. In addition, expert witness testimony and services are available.

Close ×Close MINDSTAR SECURITY & PROFILING - SERVICES INTERNET & SOCIAL MEDIA MONITORING Criminals or adversaries can easily search the Internet to reveal your identity, financial status, residence, family members, etc. — essentially building a profile. Building a profile helps predict where someone will be at any given time, making them vulnerable to a physical attack. Stay abreast of emerging threats, unwanted disclosed information, or developing issues. We work with you to understand the problem at hand and deliver intelligence, so you can respond quickly to mitigate risks. Monitoring Topics Include: • Family or Individual Internet Footprints • Location/Travel Based • Due Diligence • Threats and Risks • Events • Adversarial Groups • Lawsuits Close ×Close MINDSTAR SECURITY & PROFILING - SERVICES CLOSED SOURCE ACCESS & MONITORING Criminals or adversaries can easily sign up for or pay to access closed data sources to attain information about your identity, financial status, residence, family members, etc. — essentially building a profile. These sources are not “hacked” or attained illegally, but are accessible by paying a small fee. Mindstar offers open source (Internet & Social Media Monitoring) as well as closed source monitoring. Closed source data is defined as information that is attained via the Internet but requires a login, user credentials, or is a paid for service. Numerous “pay to access” information sources are available and contain data such as prior criminal histories, social security numbers, voter registration numbers, genealogy data and additional personal identifiable information.

CUSTOM SECURITY SOLUTIONS Information Security is becoming more relevant every day, even for those who do not use the Internet regularly. Cyber crime is big business; its growing fast and high net worth individuals are targets. In recent years, organized crime elements and gangs have taken over from the amateur hackers and they are focusing more and more on high net worth individuals. Children, although typically tech-savvy, are naïve to the dangers of posting their personal information on public websites. Social networking puts them at even greater risk of unknowingly associating with a perpetrator who may target them because of the family's prosperity. Our specialists have decades of experience servicing the security needs of corporate executives and their families DR.
