What is the meaning of close protection?

Close protection officers, also known as bodyguards, provide specialist, high-level security for individuals, businesses, and organisations.

What does close protection do?

Although film and TV may depict close protection as an action-packed role, only 20% of the responsibilities of a close protection officer rely on action. The remaining 80% consists of effective prevention and thinking ahead. With 5.8 million cases of theft, armed robberies and drug offences reported in 2018 in Wales and England, close protection goes a long way in keeping individuals safe.

Close protection offers a superior level of security to individuals, their families, and their business, political or financial interests, including:

Over-enthusiastic fans.

Potential stalkers/other unwanted attention.

Direct or indirect threats.

Convert surveillance/invasion of privacy.

Terrorist organisations.

Organised crime.

Political rivals or opponents.

And more!

Who needs close protection?

With the rise in criminal activity, terrorism and specific threats, a close protection service can be supplied to almost anyone. Typically, individuals who require close protection services are:

Royal families.

Politicians and diplomats.

High-profile media celebrities and personalities.

High-profile individuals attending potentially dangerous or hostile places.

Journalists covering controversial stories.

Barristers, Judges and members of a Jury.

So, how does close protection work?

As close protection professionals, our officers undertake a wide range of tasks and duties…

Physical Security & Protection from Harm

In the event of an assault, harassment, aggression and even kidnapping or assassination attempts, our close protection officers are on hand to provide physical, front-line protection. Depending on laws and regulations, officers may also be armed with lethal or non-lethal weapons.

Pre-Emptive Security

Close protection officers are trained to identify any potential threats and defuse them before they occur. Pre-emptive security includes checking venues, identifying any weak spots, checking for threats to privacy and identifying threats to physical safety.

Travel Security

Reports show that 60% of attempted attacks happen when an individual is near a vehicle, therefore close protection officers play a significant role in protecting clients as they travel. Close protection services can also assist with planning and checking travel routes to identify any potential threats.

Prevention of Opportunistic Attacks

Close protection officers are trained to identify and respond to opportunistic criminals who may be acting on impulse. The physical presence of a close protection officer is often enough to deter these attacks, but if not, they are trained to respond quickly.

Efficiency and Discretion

Close protection officers will likely be privy to an amount of sensitive or confidential information. Therefore, officers maintain the highest degree of discretion to keep individuals, their families, and their business, political or financial interests, completely confidential.

What are the benefits of close protection?

As security professionals, we understand that every individual has bespoke requirements, therefore our work is designed to reflect this. With tailor-made security solutions, you can receive a wealth of benefits, including…

Prevent and deter criminal activity

Criminal activity such as assaults, aggression, kidnapping and even assassination attempts are a concern for many individuals. Close protection services establish a professional, uniformed presence to protect you against these eventualities.

Take swift and appropriate action

Should an attack or assault occur, a close protection officer can take swift and appropriate action. We are professionally trained to identify threats, respond with appropriate force and action, de-escalate situations and more.

Respond to a variety of problems

Our primary concern is your safety, therefore close protection officers are trained to respond to a variety of issues. These include assaults, opportunistic attacks, pre-emptive security, travel security and much more.

Provide peace of mind

In addition to acting as an effective deterrent, close protection services can provide reassurance to you, your family and others that you are protected. Regardless of where you are travelling and what kind of setting you are in; your security is our primary concern.
