CLOSE PROTECTION
Close Protection & VIP Security
With the ever-changing unpredictable global environment and the increase in population, global mobility and international travel. Security threats are becoming more complex, dangerous, unpredictable and widespread. As a result, it has become increasingly challenging to ensure the safety and security of high-profile individuals and their families. The risks can range from targeted attacks to random acts of violence, kidnappings and terrorism. It is therefore essential to have a comprehensive security plan to address these risks and provide protection, whether day-to-day or for special events.
We understand that our clients’ requirements will vary depending on their situation. We provide a bespoke service, assessing threat, risk and location, as well as your lifestyle and personal preferences, selecting a CP operative or protection team to best facilitate your needs. Our priority is to implement exactly the right close protection solutions, short or long term, in proportionate response to mild or the most severe of threats, to keep you, your family, or your client safe.
Our Close protection operatives are Ex-military, highly trained and experienced with a profile that is appropriate to the customers assignments. They have excellent flexibility and the ability to operate in a wide range of environments from remote sites to busy city and high profile events using leading technology and equipment to ensure the safety and security of our clients. They understand cultural and behavioural differences, so they can blend into any environment and are able to liaise effectively with their executive protection counterparts, local authorities or client associates, regardless of geography, background or customs.
For certain clients or businesses, having security can be seen as inappropriate or unwelcome. Our close protection operatives are adaptable and can be either a highly visible deterrent or a discrete part of the day-to-day, enabling clients to go about their daily lives confident in the knowledge they are protected by experienced professionals.
Whether this service is part of an existing arrangement with us or a one off, you will find our close protection operatives, smart, discreet and above all 100% professional.
