Driven by the terrible Vehicle Ram Attacks of Nice and Berlin in 2016, Christian Schneider founded INIBSP as an impartial non-profit Security engineering service aiming to provide authorities in German speaking countries with UKs best practise HVM know-how. Since then, his consultancy firm has developed into the leading advisor on the topic in German speaking countries. Together with international experts, police and local authorities, he developed and implemented numerous HVM schemes for a wide range of public counter-terror projects. Schneider is guest lecturer at a German Police University and an Academy for Public Authorities. In 2023 he was seconded to join the UN Counter-terror office (UNOCT) as HVM advisor on the protection of vulnerable targets. Schneider is ordinary member of the Register of Security Engineers and Specialists (RSES), sits on a number of norm panels, is lead-author of the first German HVM-textbook, and is well-known for his meticulous still most innovative HVM-schemes.
