SIA-Licensed VIP Security Officers
VIP Security Services
VIP security is the deployment of SIA-licensed close protection officers to protect high-profile individuals — including celebrities, high-net-worth clients, executives and public figures. It encompasses close protection, secure transport, advance work and access control, tailored to the specific profile and threat environment of the principal. VIP Protection Services provides VIP security from London, across the UK and internationally.
Every VIP security assignment begins with a confidential threat and risk assessment. We advise honestly on the level of protection appropriate to your circumstances — and on whether a lower level of security might meet your needs.
