    Threat Assessments for Executives — UK & International

    Risk & IntelligenceBy Roy · Director, VIP Protection Services29 June 202610 min read

    The short version: Threat Assessments for Executives — UK & International — published 2026 rates, working SIA playbook, insured. short-notice cover, subject to availability in London, nationwide by arrangement.

    A threat assessment is a written, defensible document. Not a meeting. Not a feeling. A named analyst's opinion, dated, with sources, that can be handed to a board, an insurer or a court.

    Scope — Four Vectors

    Personal — direct threats, fixated individuals, prior incidents. Residential — property exposure, neighbours, perimeter. Travel — country, route, hotel, meeting venues. Digital — doxxing exposure, social-media risk, leak risk.

    Methodology

    OSINT collection, dark-web monitoring, prior-incident analysis, peer-benchmarking, in-person interview with executive and EA. Cross-referenced against credible threat actor methodologies. Scored low/medium/high/critical.

    Deliverable

    20–40 page PDF, executive summary on page 1, named author, dated, source-cited. Recommendations prioritised — quick wins first, capital projects second. Re-issued annually or on material change.

    How Boards Use It

    D&O insurance baseline. Justification for protective intelligence subscription. Evidence in court if a duty-of-care challenge arises. Briefing document for incoming security director.
