CHAMELEON GROUP WORLD CLASS SECURITYConsulting, Training & Intelligence

CEO, Singapore Mass Rapid Transit

The organizers were able to provide an exclusive perspective focused on backroom, first-hand experience in all secuurity matters. A very enriching experience.

Head Of IT Infrastructure & Information Security
Hasso Plattner Foundation

Chameleon’s expertise was needed to enhance the existing RAND Corporation’s risk assessment work conducted for my Office. We chose Chameleon because of its unique and intimate knowledge of terrorist methods of operation. Their final ‘red teaming’ report is used by my Office in security briefings to this day and frequently shared with federal and local agencies in order to paint a vivid picture of the threat being posed to Amtrak, its facilities and employees and the public it serves.

Chairperson of the Risk Management Committee
Pax Christi Academies

Based on my experience serving as Chairperson of the Risk Management Committee for Pax Christi Academies, our team engaged Chameleon to conduct a security assessment across five schools. Throughout the engagement, the Chameleon team was professional, responsive, and thorough in their work. Their depth of expertise was evident throughout the process, and their recommendations were practical, clearly communicated, and appropriate for an educational environment.

Overall, Chameleon did an excellent job, and I would recommend them based on my personal experience working with their team

Group Vice President: Loss Prevention, Security, Emergency Preparedness
H-E-B

Chameleon has assisted H-E-B in conducting global assessments of security and has advised us in critical areas for improvement for more than a decade.

Chameleon has been assisting H-E-B’s Security Department to tackle security concerns relating to company operations, loss prevention, executive protection, international threats and more. Chameleon provides consultation, training, and international travel security support for H-E-B executives and department leadership.

In working with Chameleon, you will develop a partnership based on integrity, candid conversations, and professionalism, while striving to achieve your business needs. It is my pleasure to recommend the services provided by Chameleon.

We have found the Chameleon team to possess quality expertise, diverse experience and polished professional skills. Their program delivery and management has continued to exceed our expectations. They have proved to be a reliable and valuable partner.

Chairman, President & Chief Executive Officer
Crane Company

We reached out to Chameleon to conduct a comprehensive global Threat, Risk and Vulnerability Assessment in 2018. Chameleon assessed all our Crane Currency facilities and operations in the U.S. and abroad.

Their assessment scope ranged from our transportation logistics – airport, seaport, cargo; physical security; procedures; use of security technology; skill and procedural gaps. They assessed internal and external threats, identified areas where intelligence could be leveraged, created a CAP plan and made sure that all of our security procedures satisfy our high regulatory requirements with the Federal government, our largest client.

Following the TRVA, Crane Currency contracted with Chameleon for ongoing security consultation, SOP development, training design and delivery via workshops, exercises, online courses and classroom presentations. They also conduct security quality assurance via red teaming and penetration testing. Chameleon continues to support us on an ongoing basis.

Given the products that Crane Currency manufactures and the profiles of our clients, the adversaries we face range from local criminals to state actors.

Chameleon came to us highly recommended by industry partners. We have found the Chameleon team to possess quality expertise, diverse experience and polished professional skills. Their program delivery and management exceed our expectations. They have proved to be a reliable and valuable partner.

Chief Security and Operations Officer
Dallas Museum of Art

The Chameleon team conducted the threat, risk and vulnerability assessment in a professional, competent and timely manner. The assessment report was extensive and covered all facets of the security spectrum: building physical security, security technology systems currently in place, and communication protocols and procedures.

Based upon the evaluation, they offered valuable feedback and provided a practical and thorough plan to assist the museum in creating a more secure facility. Their approach to security evaluation puts an emphasis on being proactive and anticipating what the adversaries’ point of view would be. By being proactive they ensure people and assets are protected.

Our pilots always appreciate the unique perspective and insight you bring to security matter… The role playing – getting into the processes of planning terrorists attacks – was very enlightening. Judging from feedback received, your presentation was both informative and of great interest to all in attendance.

Department of Sociology, University of Hawaii

Participation in the executive seminar was like spending a week in a living homeland security laboratory. Everyone in the group was astounded with the access to experts and facilities that Chameleon was able to arrange. I came home with a grasp of both the philosophy and application of Israeli counterterrorism practices beyond all expectations.

Head of School – Calvary Christian School

Chameleon brought a no-nonsense approach to school security that began with a full study of the school’s strengths and weaknesses as it relates to security threats on or off our campus. We personally chose to work with Chameleon because they were the only security assessment company who were not in the business of selling us their own security solutions. Chameleon specializes in one thing, to partner with the school to offer sensible and doable security recommendations and solutions that match with school’s mission and culture considering the school’s practical constraints.

President
Evergreen Exhibitions

We engaged the Chameleon Group to provide Risk Management and Security services in support of a project for us in León, Mexico, a U.S. Department of State Level 3 area. The project involved coordinating many elements over the course of 14 days for our personnel setting up an exhibit at the Patronato de Explora.

Chameleon organized everything and more: a local fixer, and a vetted professional security driver for secure transportation with local knowledge, route planning and on-the-ground support during travel.

They established a dedicated WhatsApp group which they closely monitored with their operations and crisis response team. Our travel insurance was reviewed and recommendations given for appropriate medical, evacuation and travel protection. A virtual pre-travel safety briefing was given to our team that covered locale-specific risk, travel safety guidance, emergency procedures and communication protocols.

Chameleon also conducted intelligence monitoring for the duration of the engagement and their team was on-call 24/7 for support, throughout.

Working with the Chameleon Group has been an outstanding experience. The team shows professionalism, responsiveness and a depth of expertise that makes them an invaluable partner in security.

I would give without reservation a strong professional recommendation of their personnel and services.

Proactive Threat Assessment and Security Question

Outstanding course. Provided a completely different and efficient method for providing security. It has led to a much greater understanding of the holes in our current security processes. I would much like to take additional courses by Chameleon, especially the Questioning Course

Security Manager CordeValle

Peter and the Chameleon Group provided an excellent Security Awareness and Workplace De-escalation training session for our team at CordeValle. The training was professional, engaging, and highly relevant to the hospitality environment. The material was presented in a practical, real-world manner that resonated with staff across different departments and experience levels.

The training reinforced the importance of situational awareness, communication, and early intervention techniques while maintaining a professional and guest-focused approach. Employees left with valuable tools and greater confidence in recognizing and responding to potential concerns in the workplace. Peter’s experience, presentation style, and ability to connect security concepts to everyday operations made the training both effective and well received by our team.

We appreciate the partnership and would highly recommend Chameleon Group to organizations looking to strengthen workplace safety, security awareness, and de-escalation skills.

Course Chief, Combat Hunter Program
School of Infantry – West, AIT Bn
Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, CA

Over the years, my team has had the pleasure of receiving training from Mr. Amotz Brandes and it has always been greatly beneficial. Chameleon and Mr. Brandes bring a unique perspective when dealing with not only responding to a threat, but the recognition of a potential threat before it manifests itself. Our curriculum at Combat Hunter is based on enhancing situational awareness and observing for behavioral indicators of threat before an incident. Because of the parallels and similarities, Mr. Brandes’ approach and insight was utilized directly in a number of our classes to include Tactical Questioning, Terrorist Planning Cycle, and Criminal and Insurgent Networks. The cadre here at Combat Hunter would enthusiastically recommend Mr. Amotz Brandes and his organization to anyone charged with security, whether you operate in a corporate, law enforcement or military environment. As a great pre or post training to our Combat Hunter Program, this training is definitely benefit added.
