Protective Intelligence is methods used to identify, investigate and analyze threats to public figures. Protective Intelligence maybe further viewed as an important step in determining what threats exists. When threats are determined through a threat assessment, vulnerability assessments can be made and a thorough analysis of all potential danger evaluated. In 1998 the Department of Justice completed a Protective Intelligence & Threat Assessment report. In part this report details the U.S. Secret Service who conducted an operational study of the thinking and behavior of the 83 persons known to have attacked or come close to attacking prominent public officials and figures in the United States during the past 50 years. The Exceptional Case Study Project, was recently completed;its findings are leading the U.S. Secret Service to refine and improve its approaches to preventing assassination attempts. Public sector companies such as Protective Intelligence International now provide such services to Fortune 500 companies. Once thought to be reserved solely for those in the charge of the U.S. Secret Service, Protective Intelligence is now offered to corporations, celebrities, high net-worth individuals, religious leaders and anyone with the need to protect themselves. The study examined the thinking and behavior of all 83 persons known to have attacked or approached to attack a prominent public official or figure in the United States from 1949 to 1996. During this time period, 74 attacks and near-lethal approaches occurred. Six attacks were carried out by 16 individuals who were members of groups. Sixty-eight of the attacks and near-lethal approaches were carried out by 67 individuals acting alone. (One individual attacked two public figures.) Targets of these individuals included Presidents, other officials protected by the Secret Service, Members of Congress, Federal judges, prominent national political leaders, State and city officials, business executives, and entertainment,sports, and media celebrities.
