About SARO
Security Advisor and Research Organisation (SARO)
Founded on 1 July 2017, the Security Advisor and Research Organisation (SARO) is an independent intelligence, research, and strategic advisory organisation committed to advancing security, resilience, and informed decision-making in an increasingly complex global environment.
Registered under GST No. 07GJCPS4941D1Z4 and classified under HSN Code 00440108 (Security / Detective Agencies), SARO was established to bridge critical gaps between intelligence collection, strategic research, and practical advisory services. Our mission is to transform information into actionable intelligence that enables governments, businesses, institutions, and civil society organisations to anticipate risks, strengthen resilience, and respond effectively to emerging threats.
As geopolitical uncertainty, cyber threats, financial crime, disinformation, and digital vulnerabilities continue to evolve, organisations require reliable intelligence to make confident decisions. SARO addresses these challenges through independent research, evidence-based analysis, and multidisciplinary expertise across security, cyber, corporate, financial, and strategic domains.
Our core capabilities include Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT), Cyber Threat Intelligence, Dark Web Monitoring, Corporate Intelligence, Due Diligence, Financial Crime Intelligence, Digital Forensics, Geopolitical Risk Analysis, Economic Security Research, and Strategic Risk Advisory. Every engagement is conducted with analytical rigour, professional discretion, and strict adherence to legal and ethical standards.
Beyond intelligence and advisory services, SARO contributes to knowledge development through strategic research, policy analysis, professional training, intelligence publications, and capacity-building initiatives. Our objective is not only to help organisations respond to current challenges but also to prepare them for future risks through continuous research, innovation, and intelligence-led decision-making.
Today, SARO serves as a trusted intelligence and strategic advisory partner, delivering objective insights that support national security, corporate resilience, cyber preparedness, and sustainable organisational growth.
Our Story
SARO was founded with a clear vision—to strengthen strategic decision-making through independent intelligence and research.
Recognising that traditional security approaches alone were no longer sufficient to address rapidly evolving cyber threats, financial crime, corporate misconduct, and geopolitical instability, SARO was established to provide research-driven intelligence capable of identifying risks before they become crises.
Since its inception, the organisation has continuously expanded its expertise across multiple intelligence disciplines, integrating Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT), cyber intelligence, corporate investigations, strategic risk analysis, financial crime research, and geopolitical assessment into a unified intelligence framework.
Over the years, SARO has evolved beyond an advisory organisation into a multidisciplinary intelligence and research institution that supports government agencies, businesses, law firms, financial institutions, non-governmental organisations, and other stakeholders requiring reliable intelligence for informed decision-making.
Driven by innovation, analytical excellence, and operational integrity, SARO continues to develop advanced intelligence capabilities that help organisations understand complex risk environments, protect critical assets, and build long-term resilience in an interconnected world.
