What is Close Protection?
Close Protection is a personal security service tailored for individuals facing elevated risks due to their status, profession, or public visibility. It is a proactive, preventative measure designed to ensure the safety and well-being of clients through the deployment of trained security professionals.
This service is essential for individuals such as Ultra-High-Net-Worth Individuals, business executives, public figures, and those in the spotlight who may be at risk from targeted threats, including physical attack, kidnapping, harassment, or opportunistic crime. Close Protection covers all aspects of security - whether during public appearances, international travel, day-to-day routine, or in the privacy of the home.
At the core of Close Protection is the ability to anticipate and mitigate threats before they become dangerous. Our highly trained officers are skilled in advanced threat detection, situational awareness, and crisis response, ensuring 24/7 coverage for our clients.
