With over 25 years of combined military and law enforcement experience—including 21 years with the NYPD—Cardona brings unmatched expertise in identifying and mitigating emerging weapon threats, particularly in the area of decentralized and additive manufacturing technologies, known as 3D printing.
A U.S. Marine Corps veteran with deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan, Cardona’s career reflects a deep dedication to safeguarding communities through innovation-driven security solutions. His tactical precision and operational leadership have shaped some of the most forward-thinking approaches to public safety in the field.

His experience initiating and leading the NYPD Major Case Field Intelligence, “Ghost Gun”, Team exemplifies his dedication to advancing proactive threat mitigation and fostering effective interagency coordination. It was in this role that Victor was instrumental in crafting the national model for identification, detection, deterrence and investigation of personally manufactured firearms. Victor has extensively trained and collaborated with local, state, federal and international stakeholders to safeguard critical infrastructure from the emergence of this invisible threat.
Now, Cardona is channeling his expertise into the private sector and the education system—developing training programs, consulting on security innovation, and mentoring the next generation of security professionals. His mission is to bridge the gap between tactical experience and institutional knowledge, ensuring that both industries are equipped to confront evolving threats with clarity and precision.
