Executive Protection Services, LLC

Providing the very best in Security and Protection Services.

Shielding executives from threats is about brains, not brawn. 

Executive Protection Services uses “Best Practices” from practitioners, the Department of Homeland Security and the Secret Service to show the customer they should rely on risk assessment, cost-benefit analysis and old-fashioned legwork.

Many companies pay lip service to the notion that employees are their most valuable assets, but few have actually done the math. In the case of a Northern Bank, the use of a Banker and his  family in a 2004 robbery cost approximately $50 million—and that was just the thieves' take. Add to that the public relations costs (worldwide headlines, inquiries by prosecutors and British intelligence), and the tab runs considerably higher.

 

The threats facing an executive vary widely depending on the size of the company, the industry it belongs to and the individual executive's profile. CSO’s in oft-targeted sectors such as the financial services, pharmaceutical and energy industries, and those with executives based overseas, worry about kidnapping, carjacking, mail-borne explosives, biological agents and eco-terrorism. Threatening letters ,e-mails and workplace violence fill out the list.

 

Given the range of risks involved, CSO’s who have managed executive protection programs know that protecting an individual is a very different discipline from securing a facility. A top executive not only can't be locked down but, unlike a building with a single gate, there are numerous ways for an attacker to get to an executive, including through family members, as in the 2004 example. Executives will also rebel against onerous security restrictions. CSO’s face the challenge of calibrating protection that serves their company's needs while also making that security palatable to the executives who have to live with it.

 

It's important to realize that risks are ever-changing. “Executive Protection Services” can develop a baseline level of security for your executives that can be increased when warranted. "Good executive protection professionals understand the threat level and analyze it constantly,"
