Close Protection
For high-profile individuals - including VIPs, celebrities, royalty, government officials, and executives within blue-chip corporations - security is not a luxury, but a necessity. In an era where threats from protesters, fanatics, and organised criminal networks are ever-evolving, effective protection requires a strategic, intelligence-led approach.
The risks are real and increasing. Traditional kidnappings, Tiger kidnappings, and Virtual extortion schemes have made global headlines, while previously targeted locations—such as retail and leisure venues—have become even more attractive to criminal enterprises. Prevention, preparation, and precision are critical in mitigating these threats.
At VIGILO, we understand that responding to an incident is only part of the equation. A truly comprehensive security strategy must incorporate proactive risk management, engaging law enforcement, media networks, and crisis response teams to navigate the complexities of kidnap, ransom, and hostage situations.
Beyond corporate and personal security, family protection is a crucial yet often overlooked aspect. Our approach is designed to be practical and reassuring, balancing effective preventative measures without instilling undue fear or anxiety.
VIGILO’s bespoke Close Protection programs offer a holistic security solution, combining:
- Advanced risk assessment and mitigation
- Seamless integration with law enforcement and crisis teams
- Specialist anti-surveillance techniques to empower individuals and staff
- Proactive training for personnel and families to detect, deter, and respond to threats
By providing elite training, intelligence, and operational support, VIGILO ensures that our clients—along with their staff and families - are always one step ahead, equipped with the awareness, confidence, and capability to neutralise potential threats before they escalate.
