A LOOK BACK AT OUR RECORD...

PAR-SEC Consulting is a consulting firm that specializes in vulnerability assessments for corporations, NGOs and private travellers to high risk countries. Our background is military intelligence that encompassed both strategic and tactical nature.  Who are we?
PAR-SEC Consulting was established  in March 2013. Virtually since day one we utilize twitter as a platform in which to offer our followers and the rest of the world insight into what we offer. We pride ourselves in posting indicators of the state of the security situation for countries of high risks to travellers. This is done to provide situational awareness to the public as well as to highlight our firm. Our retweets are often of similar end state. 
After eight months in operation, our clients have been extremely well served. In order to establish credibility towards prospective clients we decided to review all our past judgements and see how they stand in an ever changing world.

1.  09 April: "Did you know that civil unrest is possible for 2013 in the Dominican Republic?"
Comment: A standard google search will result in favourable returns to support our statement.

2. 26 July: "Some countries to avoid right now: Saudi Arabia (MERS) from now until November. Lebanon (sectarian violence) for the next 12 months minimum."
Comment: Four months later these two countries are still making headlines for those specific reasons.

3. 31 July: "Did you know that the level of civil unrest in Brazil is lower than the world's average? Expect a peak by 2015, before the Olympics".
Comment: Brazil's security situation has slightly deteriorated since then. We assess that Brazil will further degrade from a civil unrest position and is highly likely to experience a marginal rise in crime.

4. 11 August: "We judge that civil unrest is highly likely for Haiti in the next 12 months. Based on present political instability and the growing socio- economic frustration: perfect for mounting violence."
Comment: Civil unrest ongoing. Instances of violence recurring and mounting.

5. 20 August: "Mounting violence in Honduras very possible with upcoming elections in November."
Comment: Google search results will demonstrate that the likeliness of violence is relevant. Elections within one week.

6. 29 August: "We judge that the security situation in Lebanon could worsen in the next 5 days. Consult us before travelling there.
Comment: Occurred soon after; unrest and violence in and around Tripoli does not constitute country wide unrest. It is likely to be limited to the north in the mid-term. Lebanon should remain stable overall for the next 6 to 9 months.

The tweets reproduction are limited to these six. They are samples of our firm's work.
