ORLANDO, Fla. - eTradeWire -- Strategic All-Source Intelligence Agency (SAS Intel), a veteran-owned strategic intelligence firm, today announced its Fractional Chief Strategic Intelligence Officer (CSIO) service. The offering brings military-grade intelligence tradecraft to enterprise boards, enabling organizations to identify threats 6-12 months ahead and prepare strategically rather than react in crisis mode.

The Intelligence Gap

Most organizations have executives for major risks—a CISO for cybersecurity, CRO for enterprise risk, CFO for finance. No entity synthesizes emerging threats across geopolitical, cyber, supply chain, competitive, reputational, and insider threat domains into actionable board strategy.

"Over 15 years leading intelligence and cybersecurity programs across government and enterprise, I've advised senior leaders on emerging threats," said Richard Frederick, Founder and CSIO at SAS Intel. "Now I'm bringing that tradecraft to enterprise boards."

What the Fractional CSIO Model Provides

Comprehensive Coverage Across Six Strategic Domains:

• Geopolitical Risk – Trade tensions, regulatory shifts, regional instability
• Cyber Threat Intelligence – Advanced persistent threats, supply chain attacks, nation-state actors
• Supply Chain Resilience – Vendor vulnerabilities, single points of failure, concentration risk
• Competitive Intelligence – Market positioning, M&A activity, strategic shifts
• Reputational Risk – Brand threats, disinformation campaigns, executive exposure
• Insider Threat – Counterintelligence, data exfiltration, malicious insiders

Founder-Led Advisory – Direct access to Richard Frederick, not junior associates, ensuring consistent strategic thinking across engagements.
