Executive Protection

Discreet, credentialed, EP-trained close protection.

§ Overview

What this covers

Executive protection is not off-duty police work in a dark suit. Our operators come from military and federal EP backgrounds, hold current EPI or ICON credentials, and are re-certified annually. We conduct advance work, route surveys, TSCM sweeps, and residential threat assessments before a single detail begins.

Every principal is different. We tailor posture — low-visibility to overt hard-cover — based on threat modelling, media exposure, and personal preference. Discretion is the product.

Close-protection officers with EPI / ICON credentials, secure transport, advance work, and residential coverage.

§ Our Process

From walkthrough to first shift.

Every executive protection deployment follows the same four-step engagement — no short-cuts, no template quotes, no officer placed on a site they've never walked.

01
Discovery walkthrough

A regional supervisor visits your site, interviews stakeholders, and documents current pain points, existing systems, and shift patterns.

02
SOP design

We draft a site-specific Standard Operating Procedure — post orders, escalation ladder, uniform posture, reporting cadence — and review it with your team before deployment.

03
Officer selection

Officers are hand-picked from our regional roster based on skill fit, language requirements, and prior experience with your industry. No random assignments.

04
Deployment & audit

Coverage begins on the agreed date, with the first two weeks audited by the regional supervisor. We course-correct in real time — not at a quarterly review.
