Global Business Intelligence Research Services That Get Results

When you need to gather intelligence abroad, who can you turn to? Public resources are often sparse, and there’s only so much that you can learn from scouring the internet or consulting books. Unfortunately, there are times when you or your company need answers to hard questions, to protect your business and personal interests. Thankfully, you have a partner who can provide the global business intelligence you need and get you the answers you deserve. At International Security Services, Inc. (ISS), our expert intelligence specialists will work with you to develop the strategies needed to conduct effective research and detective activities overseas.

Business Intelligence Investigations

Business intelligence investigations can come in a variety of forms. For example, if your company is planning an event or trip abroad, it is important to properly assess the area you plan to visit. Overseas visits and events can provide your foreign rivals with any number of opportunities to surveille your personnel, eavesdrop on meetings, and gain access to your intellectual property or other closely-guarded secrets. At ISS, we can vet prospective meeting locations, hosts, and the overall area to ensure that your privacy and safety are secured.

Business Intelligence Services throughout the Russian Territories

Our intelligence services can also provide important answers to key personal questions about prospective foreign spouses and employees. We can conduct background investigations throughout the territories of the former Soviet Union and have an extensive network of Russian resources who can assist us in developing useful profiles that properly detail an individual’s background. Before you hire or marry an overseas person with ulterior motives, make sure that you know everything you need to know about their history and lifestyle. ISS can help.

ISS specializes in conductive detective services throughout the area that once comprised the Soviet Union. We have professional contacts within the FSB, Ministry of Internal Affairs, and Military Investigation of Russia, as well as relationships with other key authorities in the region. Those contacts enable us to effectively:

  • Conduct background checks to reveal foreign residents’ financial history and status
  • Help you contact local officials in areas of interest to your business
  • Provide representation for your VIPs in those foreign areas
  • Protect your executives and others when they travel abroad
  • Provide information searches and data analysis on persons, companies, and other entities in those areas
  • Other business-related research services to meet your overseas business investigation needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Contact International Security Services, Inc. today to learn more about our general investigations, business investigations, overseas investigations, and background check services.

Who uses private investigation services?

Many people and companies have questions that only an investigation can answer. For example, you may wonder whether a spouse is being unfaithful, desire to learn more about your adoption, or want to run a background check prior to marriage. Businesses often need help investigating potential fraud, screening employees, or conducting due diligence before mergers, acquisitions, or overseas expansions. International Security Services, Inc. can help with those and other investigation needs.

Why can’t I just investigate on my own?

Obviously, you could try to investigate just about anything on your own. However, there’s a reason why people and companies choose private investigators to get the answers they need. Proper investigations take time, resources, and skill sets that most laypeople lack. In addition, many people are unfamiliar with legal issues related to surveillance and other investigative concerns and can thus easily run afoul of the law during any do-it-yourself investigation.

Why should I choose ISS?

ISS investigators have the expertise and experience you need to get the answers you deserve. Our investigators are all licensed professionals with skills sets that include intelligence gathering and counterintelligence measures, and they’re backed by state-of-the-art investigative tools and techniques.

Can you help me with overseas investigations?

We can. At ISS, we are fluent in both English and Russian, and familiar with the Russian community. As a result, we can provide quality investigative services in both the U.S. and the nations that were once part of the Soviet Union.

What should I know about my investigators?

You should only consider investigators who are properly licensed, bonded, and insured, and who have a proven track record of success. ISS investigators meet and surpass those expectations, which is why our team can offer the most effective investigation services in New York City and abroad.

Should I be concerned about discretion?

When you hire ISS investigators, discretion is a priority. We conduct covert investigations to ensure that subjects remain unaware that they are being surveilled or otherwise investigated. New York statutes require that investigators only release your information if you request it or a court orders such information to be divulged. Otherwise, information that we share with one another is considered confidential. That includes information that you provide during any consultation, even if you decide not to hire ISS.

Are there limitations and things you can’t investigate or do?

Of course. For example, private investigators are not allowed to surreptitiously obtain credit report information without written consent or record conversations without at least one party’s knowledge. We do not harass targets, violate local, state, or federal law, or otherwise conduct ourselves in any way that might be considered immoral or unethical. We can, however, use every legal tool at our disposal to ensure that you get the answers you need.

Property Security Evaluation Report

Your Individualized Property Evaluation Report

Your site’s individualized property evaluation report contains information and analysis that you need to properly manage your site’s security needs. That information includes detailed analysis of the crime rate in your area, site access and parking protocols, and existing security infrastructure. Interior inspection includes analysis of emergency exits, fire suppression capabilities, and alarm infrastructure for emergencies. Exterior inspection includes analysis of structural defects, property lighting, and potential vulnerabilities in building access.

In addition to those inspections, our analysis also considered environmental factors, potential risks from older trees, outside property maintenance, and nearby crime that may overflow to the area. We also examined emergency response planning, including fire evacuation protocols and information supplied to residents about proper evacuation process.

 

Pressing Suggestions


We highly suggest a camera placement along this driveway, as the overhead cameras in the back parking lot may not capture all makes, models, and license plates of cars entering in and out based on the angle they are recording from. The best camera placement would be at the green circle closest to the sidewalk/street.
The common area is easily accessible, but based on the angle that cameras are set at the front lot, anyone can enter the basement common area concealing the side of their face that is facing the camera. This is not to say that the camera arrangement should be changed, but it is highly recommended to have coverage in this common area as the common area is on a lower floor not visible from the sidewalk.


However, a few fundamental problems exist when it comes to access control of the back parking (a big territory). Even though only two issues have ever occurred there, the wide-open access point to that lot may need to be corrected sooner than later as there is a significant uptick in crime in the 62nd precinct.

Furthermore, there are two fundamental surveillance blind spots along the driveway leading to the back parking lot and every common area.

Lastly, however unlikely it may seem, tenants should have resources and a physical guide for situations that may require an evacuation. Whether it be a flood or fire, each tenant should know how to use a fire extinguisher and where to evacuate to during a flood regardless of their proximity to a shoreline.
