Over Bjorn

International security consultant with 20+ years of experience across executive protection, risk management, protective intelligence and security operations. Former Head of Security to a Royal Family, delivering global travel, estate and event security with intelligence-led planning and calm execution under pressure. I work with corporate leaders, family offices and UHNWI, public sector and international organizations. Clients hire me to design, build, and streamline security programs, from concept to day-to-day operations, including governance, staffing, protective intelligence and OSINT, travel security, events, estates, and vendor ecosystems. I hold an MSc in Diplomacy and Security Studies, with research focused on cognitive warfare, influence operations, and digital risk dynamics, which I translate into practical cyber-physical exposure reduction and decision-ready risk assessments. Discreet, structured, and outcome-driven.
