Is Your Next Decision
Based on Real Intelligence
or Guesswork?

Threats evolve weekly. If you're exposed, you need intelligence that updates, not a one-time snapshot.

Zika Rakita

I've protected executives in 30+ countries, run surveillance operations across 5 continents, and investigated threats that never made the news because we stopped them first. Now I deliver that same intelligence, fast, relevant, and actionable, without the corporate fluff or security theater.

Native Serbian, Bosnian, and Croatian speaker. Raised in the Balkans.

I exploit language, culture, and context, not just keywords or translations. I catch what automated tools and outsiders miss.

Regional Specialization: Threat intelligence, due diligence, and competitor research across Serbia, Bosnia, Croatia, Montenegro, and the former Yugoslav region.

Boundaries: No security theater. No outsourcing. No generic PDFs. I deliver direct judgment, clear priorities, and actions you can execute.

Recent Client Work

Family Stalking Threat Identified in 36 Hours

36 hrs
From request to threat confirmation
3 vectors
Digital, physical, social identified
0 incidents
Travel completed without incident

Executive's family was being monitored across social media and physical locations. Identified stalker profile, confirmed pattern, coordinated with local authorities, and implemented countermeasures before scheduled international travel. Client proceeded safely. Threat actor flagged and monitored.

Client moved to intelligence retainer after this incident. Ongoing monitoring has identified two additional concerning behaviors before they escalated.

What You're Actually Dealing With

Persistent Threats That Don't Stop

Stalking. Harassment. Competitor surveillance. Hostile media. These don't resolve after one briefing. You need continuous monitoring, not a one-time snapshot.

Intelligence Retainer, Continuous Protection, $1,497/mo

Immediate Threats Requiring Quick Answers

A competitor is moving fast. A threat escalated. You need clarity now, not next quarter. One-time briefing with 48-hour turnaround.

Briefing or Priority Briefing, $497–$997

Travel or Movement Risk You Can't Assess Alone

Before you move, travel, or expand into a new region, you need real assessment of what's actually out there. Pre-trip assessment, real-time monitoring, incident coordination.

Travel Risk Management, $997
For Executives, Teams, and Organizations Under Continuous Exposure

Intelligence Retainer

If your risk changes weekly, your intelligence must be continuous.

Most clients start with a one-time assessment and realize they need continuous monitoring. Threats evolve. Competitors adapt. Risk landscapes shift weekly. A single briefing tells you what's happening now. A retainer tells you what's changing before it becomes a problem.

Simple truth: If you have persistent exposure, a one-time briefing is outdated the day you receive it.

What You Get:

  • Continuous threat monitoring (not just alerts. Context, analysis, and prioritization.)
  • 2 detailed briefings per month (custom intelligence, not templates)
  • Priority access when threats escalate (48-hour response time, not days)
  • Quarterly trend analysis (what's changing in your risk profile over time)
  • Direct line to me (no support queue, no AI chatbot)

What Monitoring Includes:

  • Named-entity monitoring (executives, family, company, key locations)
  • Threat keywords relevant to your context
  • Regional/country risk shifts
  • Media narrative shifts and doxx indicators
  • Competitor moves (legal OSINT)

$1,497/month

3-month minimum | Only 3 slots available

Who This Is For:

  • Executives with persistent stalking, harassment, or fixation risks
  • Companies operating in contested or high-risk regions
  • Organizations with ongoing competitor intelligence needs
  • Anyone who started with a one-time briefing and realized threats didn't stop

Retainer FAQ

Not Sure If You Need a Retainer?

Book a 30-minute discovery call. I'll assess your exposure, explain what continuous intelligence looks like for your situation, and tell you if a retainer makes sense or if a one-time briefing is enough.

What We'll Cover:

  • Your current threat landscape and exposure points
  • Whether threats are isolated or persistent
  • What continuous monitoring would look like in your case
  • Honest recommendation: retainer, one-time briefing, or neither

48-hour standard delivery because threats don't wait. Priority 24-hour service when speed matters most.

Actionable Output

Priority-ranked risks with specific recommendations and timelines. Clear next steps you can execute immediately.

Additional Capabilities

  • Executive and family threat management (stalking, harassment, fixated individuals)
  • Digital footprint reduction and exposure hardening (doxx risk, targeting mitigation)
  • Insider risk and competitor intelligence using legal OSINT methods
  • Due diligence and vetting (partners, hires, vendors, "who is this really?")
  • Balkan regional intelligence (Serbia, Bosnia, Croatia, Montenegro, former Yugoslav republics)
  • Crisis support and incident response coordination
