Every issue takes a real targeted violence incident and works it like an after-action review — what warning behaviors were visible beforehand, where the prevention system broke down, and what your organization should take from it.
Sober analysis, every other week. No hype, no speculation ahead of the facts.

What each issue delivers
The observable pre-attack behaviors — the leakage, the grievance trajectory, the signals that were catchable before the act.
The reporting pathway that failed, the threat assessment that never happened, the handoff that went nowhere.
Two or three portable takeaways your organization can act on — so you're building capability, not just reading the news.
The method
Anyone can tell you what happened. The Debrief tells you what a trained eye sees that the headlines miss: the point where the outcome was still preventable, and the specific organizational gap that let it through.
It's written for the people accountable for making sure their organization isn't the next case study — VPs of public safety, security and risk leaders, and the teams they run.
WRITTEN BY OVERWATCH ADVISORY — behavioral threat assessment and decision support, led by a U.S. Army Special Forces veteran and certified protection professional who does this work.
The next incident will happen whether or not your organization is ready for it. The Debrief is how you get ahead of it.
