Common Questions

We Answer


Yes. A comprehensive risk assessment evaluates your CEO's exposure to potential threats, identifies vulnerabilities in current security protocols, and provides actionable recommendations. In today's environment, where executive visibility and public sentiment create elevated risk, a professional assessment is the critical first step in establishing an effective protection strategy.

Vulnerability depends on multiple factors: public profile, industry visibility, travel patterns, residential security, and the current threat landscape. We evaluate all of these through proven methodologies developed during decades of FBI and private-sector protection experience, providing you with a clear picture of risk and a prioritized mitigation plan.

The need for executive protection is determined by threat level, exposure, and the potential impact of a security incident on your organization. We help you make this determination through an objective, experience-based evaluation — not a sales pitch. Some clients need full-time protection; others benefit from enhanced awareness training and travel security protocols.

A best-in-class executive protection program goes beyond bodyguards. It integrates threat intelligence, advance work, secure transportation, residential security, cyber awareness, and trained personnel into a seamless protective operation. We help organizations build or enhance programs that meet the highest professional standards while operating efficiently within budget.

An IRS Section 132 study is an independent security assessment that documents bona fide business reasons for providing executive protection. When properly conducted, it allows security-related expenses to be excluded from the executive's taxable income. We conduct these studies to professional standards that withstand IRS scrutiny, providing clear documentation of necessity.
