Get Ready for a Deep Dive Into Global Drug Enforcement and National Security

Join us for an eye-opening conversation with Derek S. Maltz, a 28-year veteran of the DEA and one of the most influential voices in the fight against transnational crime. As the former Special Agent in Charge of the DEA's Special Operations Division (SOD), Derek led over 500 personnel and helped coordinate the capture of cartel kingpins like El Chapo Guzmán.

Maltz played a pivotal role in transforming global drug enforcement—expanding SOD to 30+ agencies, working with international partners, and spearheading landmark arrests, including arms trafficker Viktor Bout, narco-terrorist Khan Mohammed, and global criminal mastermind Paul Le Roux. His leadership earned him the Presidential Rank Award and national recognition on 60 Minutes, CNN, and NBC.

Now a national security and public safety analyst seen regularly on major news networks, Maltz brings unparalleled insight into how the U.S. tracks and disrupts the world's most dangerous criminal networks.

🎙 Don't miss this interview—a rare inside look at the front lines of global law enforcement from someone who lived it.
