Government grade investigations for private clients and businesses
We help families, investors, and companies find out the truth about people and deals before they hand over money, trust or access.
A background check tells you if someone has a record. We tell you if they're going to be a problem.
Your accountant checks the numbers. Your lawyer checks the contract. We check the people.
Most families and businesses have two trusted advisors in the room for every big decision. We are the third seat at the table.
Your CPA
"Do the numbers work?"
Your Attorney
"Is it legal?"
Us
"Can you trust the people involved?"
Big companies pay a full-time executive whose only job is spotting trouble before it arrives. Most businesses and family offices can't justify that hire, so we fill the seat part-time. Think of it like a fractional CFO, but for risk.

How our intelligence protects you from the people and risks you can't see
We find what the people you do business with don't want found
Digital Footprint Intelligence
We find out what's exposed about you online to keep your family safe. Your home address. Your kid's names. Old accounts with leaked passwords. All of this is often a quick 30 minute search away from anyone who want to target you
How an audit works →Vetting & Due Diligence Intelligence
We investigate people and companies before you hire, invest, or partner with them. A background check confirms who someone is. We find what they didn't tell you: lawsuits, failed businesses, fake credentials, values that don't align with yours, and hidden conflicts of interest.
How vetting works →Cyber Resilience Advisory
We show you how scammers and hackers would target your leaders, then help close those doors. Your IT team protects the computers. Most attacks start by fooling people: a fake invoice, an impersonated CEO, a convincing phone call.
How I assess this →Fractional CSIO Advisory
A part-time expert who watches for threats to your business or family so you hear about them first. Big companies pay a full-time executive for this. We give you the same early warning, on retainer, for a fraction of the cost.

I USED TO FIND THREATS FOR THE US MILITARY. NOW I FIND THEM FOR YOU.

Founder / CEO
I'm Richard Frederick — US Army intelligence and defense intelligence veteran. Before building Strategic All-Source Intelligence, I spent 15+ years in elite intelligence environments, authoring targeting profiles and threat assessments for CENTCOM, the CIA, FBI, Homeland Security, and the President. I built SAS Intel because the private sector deserves the same caliber of intelligence the national security community relies on — without the $1M+ overhead.

Your digital footprint is bigger than you think—and hackers are watching.
In the latest episode of Ctrl-Alt-Secure, I sat down with Red Sentry CEO Valentina Flores to talk about how hackers exploit what’s already out there—and how companies can fight back.
🎙️ "Tools only tell part of the story... they give you the what, but they don’t really give you what matters or how that pertains to you."
From shadow cloud apps to exposed credentials, the modern attack surface is growing faster than most teams can track. Richard shares proactive ways to monitor your digital footprint, reduce risk, and layer human intelligence on top of your data.
🔎 Whether you're in security, IT, or executive leadership, this episode offers a practical lens into modern threat detection.
The future of leadership demands more than vision — it demands intelligence.
On my recent podcast feature with Umbreen Ahmed on CEO Tech Talks, I shared how we at Strategic All-Source Intelligence are reshaping the way leaders protect their organizations, their teams, and themselves.
Topics we discussed:
🔹 Reducing digital footprints that expose executives and enterprises
🔹 Proactive threat monitoring to identify risks before they escalate
🔹 Intelligence-driven executive protection strategies that keep leaders safe and focused on growth
This conversation was a chance to highlight why intelligence isn’t optional in today’s business climate — it’s the foundation of resilient leadership.
