The Defence And Security Sector

I have published four book-length Strategic Reports (see below) in the Defence sector and one in the Financial/Security industry. In addition I have presented papers at four Defence Industry conferences:

Naval Force Protection 2003: I chaired this event and presented a paper on protecting naval vessels and installations from asymmetric warfare attacks.

Naval Force Protection 2004: I presented a paper on protecting naval vessels and installations from weapons of mass destruction and in addition sat on the discussion panel as an asymmetric warfare expert.

Anti-Ship Missiles 2004: I presented a paper on next-generation anti-ship missiles and the future asymmetric threat.

Anti-Ship Missiles 2004: I presented a paper on defeating next-generation missiles, including offboard soft-kill and other countermeasures.

International Offset and Industrial Cooperation 2005: I organised speakers for this conference on a freelance basis.
