James Reese TigerSwan: Delta Force

James Reese is the founder, CEO and Chairman of TigerSwan, a global security and consulting firm that has its headquarters in Apex, North Carolina.
The company was formed by military veterans, and most of its employees are also military veterans. James Reese himself devoted twenty-five years to service in the United States Army, including many years as a member of the elite Delta Force unit. The Army's Special Forces, he once said in an interview, are like athletic superstars - the best of the best.
"They're the Alex Rodriguezes," he said, referring to the former Yankee slugger and third baseman. "And that's what you get with Special Operations. The New York Yankees [had] one Alex Rodriquez. Special Operations have hundreds of Alex Rodriguezes out there on their team."
TigerSwan provides its clients with safety and security consultants in some of the world's most dangerous environments, helping them to protect their assets and eliminate exposure to all possible threats. "In the last two years," he said in 2013, "we've moved almost fifty percent of our business away from Federal government work, toward the corporate world. And a lot of that has now pushed into cyber."
James Reese wrote out the founding principles of TigerSwan in 2008, and in the years since then has steadily grown the company with adaptive and innovative ideas.
