Scale indicators4 records

Recent moves7 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Emerging players

• Bishop Fox: Pure-play cybersecurity consulting firm offering offensive security, vulnerability research, and red-team services. Comparable on the cyber risk advisory side where COSECURE partners with Ravdal/Codiscovr, and a likely competitor for the same enterprise cyber budgets.

Broad incumbents

• Control Risks: Global specialist risk consultancy advising on security, political, integrity, and cyber risk for multinational clients. Comparable in its enterprise risk advisory orientation, though scaled internationally and serving primarily Fortune 500 buyers.
• Pinkerton (Securitas): Long-established corporate security, investigations, and risk consulting firm under Securitas. Overlaps with COSECURE on physical security assessments and corporate risk advisory, but operates at much larger scale and as part of a broader guarding and security services portfolio.
• Kroll: Global risk consulting and investigations firm offering cyber risk, physical security, compliance, and litigation support. Comparable to COSECURE on the integrated cyber-plus-physical advisory motion but with broader global scale and brand.
• Booz Allen Hamilton: Major management and technology consultancy with a substantial public-sector and federal security practice. Comparable on federal, defense, and homeland-security advisory mandates where COSECURE's public-sector team (ex-DHS leadership) competes.

Direct peers

• Healy+ (Margolis Healy and Associates): Higher-education and K-12 safety consulting firm formed from the legacy principals of Margolis Healy and Associates. COSECURE's 2022 realignment merged its cybersecurity business with MHA's risk-assessment and emergency-management practices, making Healy+ the closest comparable in regulatory-driven campus safety.
• Hillard Heintze: Security risk and threat management consulting firm serving corporate, education, healthcare, and public-sector clients. Comparable in service breadth across risk assessments, security program design, and investigations, with similar reliance on former-law-enforcement talent.
• Guidepost Solutions: National security and risk consulting firm offering physical security assessments, investigations, compliance, and cybersecurity advisory. Directly comparable to COSECURE's integrated physical-plus-cyber risk consulting model across enterprise, public-sector, and education clients.
• Concentric Advisors: Independent security and risk advisory firm serving corporate and institutional clients. Comparable in its integrated security consulting approach, talent-driven model, and enterprise risk positioning targeting mid-to-large organizations.

Others

• TRC Companies (advisory practice): Engineering and consulting firm with adjacent safety, emergency management, and infrastructure resilience practices. Less directly competitive but operates in overlapping public-sector emergency preparedness RFPs where COSECURE bids.
