High ranking individuals in public roles may suddenly require top level security services for their personal residences. As people who hold powerful positions in society, they can become the focal interest of entities linked to legal or illegal activities and need security to ensure their general safety.
Tall tough guys in dark sunglasses and earpieces are just the tip of the iceberg in a full security system. That’s what the outsider sees, but the greater part of the work is carried out behind the scenes, as you’ll see in a moment.
What does personal security involve?
Any public figure or celebrity threatened at any level needs personal security. This field does not deal with the number of tough guys needed to protect someone but relates to the protection strategy, correctly collecting intelligence, responding quickly and creatively to situations, and using constantly updated sophisticated technologies. It also involves correct situation analysis, which is far more critical than the security guards’ actual operations.
Security guards receive instructions from a team that collects intelligence by implementing technologies, analyzing the type and location of threats, where and how surprise attacks may occur, and reaching appropriate conclusions.
What does the security guard do?
The guard’s role is not as simple as it seems.
A guard needs to be highly intelligent, able to identify and understand threats in real time and take the right decisions despite being under pressure.
Physically the guard must be in top form. This is a physically demanding job, which is why personal bodyguards generally derive from elite Special Forces and reconnaissance units.
What distinguishes a personal security guarding system as excellent?
Excellence manifests as a system that emphasizes behind the scenes operations, including data collection, correct analysis, pinpointing threats, setting strategies and carrying out dynamic actions.
Although our guards are usually from military Special Forces, they undergo training specifically for this kind of work.
