Security Consulting for International NGOs and Diplomatic Missions
Murray Physical Security Group advises international NGOs, embassies, consulates, and diplomatic personnel operating in complex and conflict-affected environments. The practice is built on direct field experience: seven years heading security operations for European Commission delegations and partner INGOs across Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, and Burundi.
Security policies written at headquarters often fail in the field, not because the policies are wrong, but because they were designed without input from the environments where they must function. We close that gap.
What We Deliver
Field security risk assessments for offices, residences, and program sites in elevated-threat environments.
Crisis management and evacuation planning, including relocation protocols, emergency action plans, and incident response procedures tested against operational reality.
Security policy and standards design that field teams can actually execute, with training to match.
Protection of at-risk personnel, from threat assessment to protective protocols for staff, dignitaries, and executives.
A Field Record, Not a Framework
As Regional Security Officer, Nick Murray secured 15 embassies and international NGOs and more than 200 personnel across a five-country portfolio, achieving a 60% reduction in incident rates over his tenure. He designed and delivered formal security training in preparedness, evacuation, and active assailant response for more than 150 multinational personnel, and coordinated with the U.S. State Department and regional law enforcement on threat monitoring and counter-terrorism response.
