Kevin Smith, founder and principal of SMITH STRATEGICS, is a former United States Department of Justice federal counterterrorism prosecutor. Smith led and directed federal, state, and local law enforcement personnel on Joint Terrorism Task Forces (JTTFs) in conducting national security investigations of US State Department designated Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTOs) and violent extremists radicalizing and operating in the US.
Combining his real-world and extensive counterterrorism expertise with academic-level research, Smith has developed and delivered training to thousands of homeland security stakeholders on topics such as lone actor terrorism, domestic violent extremism, homegrown violent extremism, youth radicalization and extremism in schools, and sovereign citizen violent extremism.
Smiths counterterrorism training courses are cutting-edge and provide homeland security stakeholders with protective intelligence relating to domestic terrorist and violent extremist threats, as well as threat management strategies to proactively prevent ideologically-motivated lone actor and mass casualty attacks.
