Note: Our head office is in the AEST timezone, GMT +10.
Our bodyguards are drawn from a very small pool of people within the general population. These are people with character traits and skills that suite them to this role. All our close personal protection staff have at least one specialist skill or area, as well as their general training. These our VIP or executive protection security officers, commonly referred to as Close Protection officers, CPP operatives, or bodyguards.
Who is a VIP? Our clients are all very important people to us. So, if you're our client you ARE the VIP.
Bodyguards require good reflexes, powers of observation
and situational awareness, the ability to work as part of a team but
still be an independant thinker, negotiation skills, flexibility,
skills in operation of vehicles or vessels, knowledge of open hand and
closed hand tactics and other use of force options, weapons, and the ability to meet the licensing and
legislative requirements of the country or state where they are
operating. They also need knowledge of local customs, and at least
some must have linguistic skills on foreign assignments. They need to
be able to blend in at a formal occassion, not interfere in matters
that are not part of their area of expertise but remain vigilant.
Some roles require further specialist skills such as
boatswains, shipboard close protection for staff, high risk escorts, counter terrorist, counter surveillance and specialist
drivers. Scenes such as the death of Lady Diana highlight the need
for professional staff.
For a self assessment please read and consider the article in our threat assessment panel.

Kidnapping
Kidnapping has become one of the 'growth' industries
of our time. This includes piracy of the West African Coast and in the
Indian ocean. Samalian pirates in the Gulf of Aiden have managed to
conduct a lucrative trade in piracy and kidnapping, by seizing foreign
vessels and ransoming the the crews, as well as diverting the cargo's.
The huge ransoms demands have been met, quietly, resulting in the
finance of further activity. This has seen the 'upgunning' of crews
with some sophistication evident in the 'mother ships' and the
co-ordination of attacks. The successes have also emboldened the
pirates to enlarge their area of operation.
