  • Aviation

    Airports never sleep – they operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to transport millions of passengers and tons of freight all over the world. To protect these valuable commodities, the Aviation Industry is one of the most heavily regulated industries in the world. Despite the regulations the industry remains under constant threat from emerging and various sources. Today, effective aviation security programs must commence before the first terminal is designed. Airports require more than 100 different systems functioning effectively and simultaneously to keep people and goods moving securely, safely and smoothly. Good Harbor’s aviation security specialists understand the intricacies and complexities of modern international aviation.

  • Critical Infrastructure

    Infrastructure is critical when it is indispensable to a smoothly functioning company or country’s operations. This also makes it an irresistible target to anyone who would choose to disrupt those operations. When it comes to protecting vital facilities and utilities, Good Harbor Consulting provides both depth and breadth of experience, including onshore and offshore oil and gas works and distribution networks, power and water generation plants and distribution networks, airports, seaports and all service networks. We work alongside our clients to advise them on critical infrastructure protection (CIP) initiatives, often embedding consultants to facilitate integration and transfer of knowledge.

  • Cyber Security

    Managing and assuring your information is critically important to success in today’s wired world. Accomplishing this, however, is becoming increasingly difficult with the growing complexity of information systems and the adaptive, sophisticated nature of attacks against them. Good Harbor conducts comprehensive and creative IT vulnerability assessments to help our clients develop strategies for protective measures, including the latest technology deployments and organizational policy changes. We also conduct penetration testing to help our clients better understand their vulnerabilities and the potential consequences of inadequately securing their IT infrastructure and information.

  • Emergency Management

    At Good Harbor, we operate on the premise that, despite all best efforts, crises, emergencies and disasters will always put extreme pressures on all levels of government and may even temporarily overwhelm agencies’ capabilities. With this guiding principle, we employ a strategy that addresses the full lifecycle of emergency management, starting with a complete diagnostic analysis of existing plans, processes and systems, and include a thorough evaluation of internal continuity of operations procedures. We recommend strategies that promote continuous improvement in all phases of emergency management (preparedness, response, recovery and mitigation), and devise viable catastrophic contingency plans for worst-case scenarios.

  • Maritime

    The operating reality of the current maritime environment is full of dynamic, emerging challenges. Public and private entities must navigate new laws, regulations and standards, which may not always be in harmony. Meanwhile, greater interdependencies open security systems to greater disruption and increasing system complexity makes operational response and recovery more difficult. Preventing this range of new, increasingly complex threats requires strategic analysis, a thorough understanding of risk, and integrated planning to make the best use of finite resources.

  • Nuclear

    In a world facing the dual challenges of finite energy resources and climate change, nuclear power is an increasingly necessary alternative. It is also a field with incredibly high stakes and no room for mistakes. Good Harbor recognizes the inherent risks and challenges of establishing and protecting a fleet of nuclear power plants, and we know that – done correctly – the potential opportunities are tremendous. Our team has a strong understanding of the unique nuances of nuclear security and assisting our clients in safeguarding nuclear assets against any theft, diversion, sabotage, espionage or other hostile acts.

  • Safety and Security Master Planning

    A Security Master Plan (SMP) is a complete description of all security requirements – covering all aspects of security planning for an enterprise. It can include developing roles and responsibilities, procedures, organization and manpower, systems, physical security of facilities and equipment, contingency planning and response requirements. Good Harbor has developed SMPs across diverse sectors that often exceed international best practice standards, including transportation, cyber, maritime, urban planning and civic and government buildings.

  • Surface Transportation

    Unlike other areas of transportation and critical infrastructure, it is not desirable to restrict access to many surface transportation systems. Public transportation in particular should be open and accessible to as many people as possible by design. Freight must be moved as quickly and efficiently as possible to minimize costs and delays. Thus, Good Harbor’s approach to surface transportation security is inherently different as well. We identify and analyze the various threats, hazards or vulnerabilities that could affect a transportation system. We then apply our engineering and operations expertise to develop pragmatic solutions that improve safety and security without impeding the operational functioning of the transportation system.
