What we mean by close protection.

Someone is there an hour before you and knows where a car can turn and who else works in the building. In the restaurant someone sits two tables away, and no one at your table notices.

Accompanying you to appointments and evenings.

Our men accompany you to an appointment, a dinner or an event.

The same applies to an evening with guests at your home.

How it begins.

  1. First meeting

    You tell us, in your own time, what is on your mind.

  2. Security assessment

    We look at what can be found publicly about you and your family, and at your routes and your house. For the security assessment and the plan we quote a fixed fee beforehand.

  3. Plan

    You receive it in writing. It sets out which men suit you and who your contact on the ground is.

  4. Assignment

    It begins once you have agreed. If you would like, we sit down together first, you and the men who will accompany you. If one of the men cannot be there, we tell you, and we tell you why.

  5. Debrief

    At the end we review the assignment together with you.

Security driver and chauffeur.

If you wish, one of our men drives your car. He knows the route before you get in.

Your children.

Whether we accompany your children as well is for you to decide. If we do, it is a man they know by name.

What you may want to know.

Will close protection be noticed in everyday life?

Very little. Our men dress unobtrusively, and the car carries no markings.

What does close protection cost?

The plan sets out the price. If you engage us, we set the fee for the assessment and the plan against it.

Do you provide a bodyguard in Vienna?

Yes. We are glad to come to you in Vienna for the meeting, and our men accompany you wherever your day takes you.

Is close protection the same as having a bodyguard?

Most people say bodyguard, and American firms say executive protection. We say close protection, because most of the work is done before the appointment.

Who will know that you are working for me?

We name no clients, not even as a reference. Off duty our men do not talk about assignments, and confidentiality is written into every contract of employment.
