Executive Protection Services By American Eagle Investigations
American Eagle Investigations provides Executive protection for many different types of clients. Executive Protection, Personal Protection or Close Protection involves protecting a person in a covert manner with highly skilled and trained professionals. These trained professionals stay in close proximity to the person they are protecting in order to allow them to take action if the need arises. At the same time these Executive Protection Specialists must allow the individual they are protecting to move freely and maintain a normal life.
Executive Protection involves a great deal of planning in order to allow the individual being protected to seem as if they are not being protected at all. They do not need to act as if they are a big bouncer, they must be able to fit in and remain as undetected as possible.
Threats facing an executive today can vary widely depending on the individual executive’s profile. It varies by the size of the company and the industry the executive is in. Knowing the range of risks involved the Executive Protection Specialist knows that protecting an individual is very different discipline from securing a facility. An executive cannot be locked down like an entrance to a building, there are numerous ways for an attacker to get to an executive, including through family members.
At American Eagle Investigations we take the time to conduct a thorough risk analysis. Is there a history of threats against the individual, why does this person need protection? Do they travel often to dangerous places? Does their family also need protection? Is this person a high profile person or does this person keep a low profile? Once you determine the needs of the individual you need to know everything about their public and private life. This is called a “principle profile” and it requires the individual’s full cooperation. You need to know everything about his work and home lives, everything including detailed information about his home, his family’s habits and any organizations or clubs he frequents. You also need to investigate how easy it is for anyone to get information on you person and his family. It is important to realize that risks are ever changing; you need to establish a secure level of protection for the individual that can be increased if needed.
The term executive protection professional should tell you all you need to know about the individual you are hiring. You do not need no-neck goons in black suits and turtlenecks. At American Eagle Investigations you are hiring a highly trained individual that has experience in defensive driving, medical training, the ability to defend an attack on a principle, a conspicuous pride in staying fit, and has good judgment to assess threats and employ the appropriate countermeasures.
