It doesn’t matter whether Rob Douglas is on-stage, behind a microphone, or armed with a pen, one thing is certain – Rob will challenge you to think in a way you’ve never thought before as he brings a wealth of knowledge and personal experience to his audience.

As a Washington, DC private detective, Rob spent 20 years investigating homicides, political corruption and international terrorism in our nation’s capital.

As a political talk show host in Washington, DC, Maryland and Colorado, Rob covered 9/11; the DC Snipers; the impeachment of President Clinton; the Virginia Tech Massacre; and the last four presidential elections.

As a newspaper columnist, Rob was honored by both the Colorado Associated Press Editors and Reporters Association and the Colorado Press Association as the best news columnist in his circulation size the first year he put pen to paper.

As a nationally recognized authority on identity theft and information security, Rob is one of our nation’s leading experts on the use of social engineering and pretext to steal personal and proprietary information.

As a consultant and expert witness, Rob’s work with local, state and federal authorities led to passage of ground-breaking privacy and security legislation.

Rob’s column-length, public policy commentaries focus on the crossroads of Liberty, Politics, Security and the Internet. His short blog posts reflect a gut-level reaction to the news of the moment.

Rob lives in Colorado with his dog Nittany and is the world’s worst fly-fisherman.
