Close protection officers
Our close protection officers (CPOs) are trained to identify threats before they become incidents. They are not bouncers or security guards. They are professionals who have worked in high-risk environments and understand threat assessment, route planning, venue security and emergency response.
All our CPOs hold valid PSIRA and firearms competency certifications where applicable. They dress and conduct themselves in a manner appropriate to your environment, whether that's a boardroom, a public event or a high-risk area.
Personal protection
If you have received threats, are going through a high-conflict legal dispute, are operating in a high-crime area or simply travel with valuables regularly, a dedicated CPO changes the risk profile considerably. We assign the right officer based on your specific situation.
- Single CPO for day-to-day personal protection
- Residential protection at your home or temporary accommodation
- Travel escort within South Africa
- Airport to hotel transfers in high-risk areas
- Protection during cash in transit or valuable goods movements
Executive protection
Business executives, high-profile professionals and their families face specific risks. We work with corporate clients to provide protection that fits into a professional environment without drawing unnecessary attention.
- Dedicated CPO assigned to the principal
- Advance work at locations prior to arrival
- Secure route planning and vehicle checks
- Threat and risk assessment for travel and events
- Crisis management planning
Event security
High-profile events, product launches, private parties, court appearances and public engagements all carry different risk profiles. We assess each event individually and deploy the appropriate number of officers with the right skills for that specific environment.
- Venue security assessments before the event
- Access control and crowd management support
- Visible and plainclothes officers depending on requirements
- Coordination with private and municipal security
Visiting dignitaries and international clients
If you are hosting international guests or travelling executives who are unfamiliar with South Africa, we provide a full protection and logistics service. This includes airport meet and greet, secure transport, accommodation security briefings and on-the-ground escort throughout their visit.
How we work
We start with a consultation to understand your threat environment. We then put together a protection plan and quote. There are no template solutions here. What we recommend for a CEO travelling to a mining town in Limpopo is different to what we recommend for a family in a Cape Town suburb.
Protection is available on a daily rate, weekly rate or ongoing retainer basis.
