Organizations rarely engage external expertise because everything is working well.
They call when concerning behavior, complex incidents, or uncertainty about risk creates pressure to act—without a clear or defensible path forward.
Our services are designed to support organizations at different stages of risk recognition, response, and long-term management, whether addressing a specific incident or strengthening internal capability.
We support organizations across a range of behavioral and security challenges.
Our behavioral threat assessment and management consulting services are tailored to each organization’s structure, culture, and risk tolerance. Engagements may include initial consultations to clarify risk and response options, comprehensive program evaluations, bespoke training, and direct case support for ongoing threat management situations.
We focus on proportionate, evidence-based responses that balance safety, legal defensibility, and organizational realities—helping clients act with clarity rather than fear.

Our Services
McClain Security Group provides specialized services in the following areas:
Complex Investigations and Litigation Support
When matters involve sensitive allegations, potential criminal exposure, workplace misconduct, litigation, or significant reputational risk, organizations and legal counsel often require independent investigative support that is both discreet and defensible.
McClain Security Group provides investigative and litigation support services in matters involving:
- Witness interviews, fact development, and case consultation
- Workplace violence, employee misconduct, and internal investigations
- Civil and criminal investigations, including violent crime matters
- White collar crime, including financial crimes, fraud, public corruption, and money laundering
- Cyber-related incidents, including ransomware, malware, cybersecurity breaches, and computer intrusions
Our investigative work is informed by behavioral analysis and decades of experience handling complex, high-consequence matters where accuracy, discretion, objectivity, and documentation are critical.
Threat Assessment Threat Management
Concerning behavior is often ambiguous—falling between HR, Security, Legal, and leadership responsibility. Without a structured threat assessment and management process, organizations risk both overreaction and dangerous inaction.
We provide behavioral threat assessment and management consulting services rooted in a deep understanding of behavioral indicators, risk factors, and escalation dynamics. Our work includes:
- Development and implementation of internal Behavioral Threat Assessment and Management (BTAM) teams
- Comprehensive program evaluations, including gap analysis and defensibility reviews
- Direct case consultation and ongoing threat management support
- Support for high-risk employment actions, including terminations
Our approach emphasizes proportionate, evidence-based management strategies that align safety, legal defensibility, and organizational realities.
Workplace Violence Prevention
Many workplace violence programs rely heavily on policy and training, but fail under real-world pressure due to unclear ownership, limited behavioral analysis, or reactive decision-making.
Our workplace violence prevention services help organizations move from policy-based compliance to operational readiness. We employ proactive behavioral analysis and risk-informed strategies to identify potential threats and provide actionable recommendations before escalation occurs.
Services include behavioral analysis, program and policy development, and tailored prevention strategies that exceed ASIS national standards and reflect real-world case experience.
Cyber Behavioral Profiling™
Cyber incidents are often treated as purely technical failures, overlooking human motivations, decision-making, and behavioral patterns that drive escalation and targeting.
Cyber Behavioral Profiling™ is the unique, structured analysis of the psychological, cognitive, emotional, and motivational factors driving cyber offenders—examining how these elements shape attack planning, decision-making, adaptive strategies, targeting logic, and online behavior.
In today’s AI-driven and socially networked digital ecosystem, Cyber Behavioral Profiling™ is inextricable from Behavioral Threat Assessment & Management (BTAM). Together, they provide a holistic framework for understanding and managing threat actors whose behaviors are now mediated, magnified, and weaponized through artificial intelligence, synthetic media, algorithmic systems, and social-media platforms. This unified approach allows practitioners to predict escalation, identify early-stage behavioral markers, disrupt emerging digital threat pathways, and design targeted, psychologically informed defenses against human-driven cyber reputational, physical and hybrid attacks.
Consulting, Training, and Expert Support
Organizations, law firms, insurers, and government agencies often need specialized expertise to evaluate cases, conduct reviews, train personnel, or provide expert analysis that exceeds internal capacity.
Our consulting and training services support organizations across a range of complex issues, including behavioral threat assessment and management, workplace violence, case reviews, behavioral analysis, interview strategies, and crimes against children.
Our experts include board-certified specialists in child abuse pediatrics, psychologists, psychiatrists, certified behavioral analysts, experienced threat managers, and other mental health professionals. In appropriate matters, we also provide expert testimony.
Organizations engage our services when the stakes are high and the margin for error is low.
