Pecora spent 24 years with the CIA, where he specialized in protective operations, counter-terrorism and security, deploying to every major conflict area that the US was involved in since 1993. He trained personnel bound for war zones, and worked against some of the most infamous terrorist groups including Al Qaeda, Abu Nidal, Hamas, Hezbollah, and Jemaah Islamiyah. Pecora’s historical memoir “Guardian: Life in the Crosshairs of the CIA’s War on Terror,” will be released in early 2019.

“Throughout my entire CIA career, my focus was the safety of our employees. WanderSafe’s mission to provide users with real-time safety updates, and useful and clear travel tips aligns perfectly with my personal mission to continue keeping people safe,” said Thomas Pecora.
