Executive Protection & Close-Protection Services
Discreet, credential-vetted protection for corporate executives, dignitaries, celebrities, and high-net-worth individuals.
Discuss This ServiceExecutive protection is a specialist discipline. It demands operatives with the right credentials, right temperament and unquestioned discretion — plus the operational planning skill to remove risk before it materialises. Our EP desk delivers all three.
Executive protection is a specialist discipline — it demands operatives with the right credentials, temperament, and discretion. 1st Indigenous Security provides vetted close-protection professionals for corporate executives, dignitaries, and high-net-worth clients travelling in Canada or hosting sensitive events on Canadian soil.
Every engagement begins with a threat assessment and a bespoke operational plan, and every operative is bound by strict confidentiality agreements.
Our Methodology
- 01
Threat Assessment
A detailed, confidential threat profile is developed with the principal's chief-of-staff or family office.
- 02
Advance Reconnaissance
Venues, routes and residences are walked in advance so nothing is unfamiliar on the day.
- 03
Layered Team Structure
Depending on threat, protection is layered: close-protection officer, driver, residence, plainclothes outer ring.
- 04
Coordination with LE
Where warranted, we liaise with municipal or federal law enforcement on the principal's behalf.
- 05
Post-Engagement Report
A confidential after-action report is delivered to the client only.
