Our Story: A Legacy of Innovation and Purpose

Founded in 2010 in Atlanta, Georgia, DigitalStakeout emerged with a clear mission: to protect people from digital threats before they manifest in the physical world. Within weeks of our launch, our platform helped recover a human trafficking victim—a moment that crystallized our purpose and continues to drive us today.

Over the past decade, we've evolved from pioneering digital risk detection to becoming the industry leader in comprehensive digital protection. This evolution hasn't been merely about technological advancement; it represents our deepening understanding of the critical intersection between digital signals and physical security.

Technology Infrastructure & Capabilities

At the heart of DigitalStakeout's evolution lies our strategic investment in proprietary infrastructure and data collection capabilities. We've built beyond traditional intelligence gathering to create a comprehensive security platform that addresses the full spectrum of digital, cyber, and physical threats facing organizations today.

Our proprietary data platform represents a significant advancement in threat intelligence gathering. Through direct control of our collection infrastructure, we maintain comprehensive visibility across social media, dark web, technical feeds, and specialized sources. This independent architecture ensures we can rapidly adapt our collection methods as threat landscapes evolve, without relying on third-party providers or facing potential service disruptions.

Building on our intelligence foundation, we've established a sophisticated global anycast network that transforms our capabilities from pure intelligence to active defense. This infrastructure enables us to deliver real-time threat prevention across multiple attack vectors, maintain consistent protection regardless of executive location, and provide seamless integration between digital and physical security measures.

Our Approach: Human-Centered Protection

Recent events, including the tragic loss of life in December 2024, have reinforced our core mission: protecting human lives from real-world dangers that emerge in the digital sphere. Our proprietary intelligence platform sets new standards for both technical excellence and human-centered protection, processing vast amounts of data across critical security dimensions to enable the most detailed and scalable digital protection available today.

By combining our extensive data collection capabilities with our global infrastructure, DigitalStakeout delivers a truly comprehensive security platform. This integration enables us to identify subtle connections between digital signals and physical threats, implement proactive defense measures based on real-time intelligence, and coordinate responses across both cyber and physical security teams.

Based in Atlanta, Georgia, DigitalStakeout's team comprises highly vetted security professionals with distinguished backgrounds in military, law enforcement, and corporate security. Our personnel undergo rigorous background screening and maintain the highest security standards, bringing decades of combined experience in protecting high-profile individuals and organizations.

This deep expertise enables us to understand the full spectrum of modern threats, ensuring we deliver protection that bridges the gap between online risks and real-world security challenges.
