Surveillance
We may need to know what our employees, competitors or even our family members are doing. Who are they meeting? Where? And why? Surveillance provides our clients with the answers to these questions.
We have extensive experience of mounting comprehensive covert surveillance operations, using fully trained operatives who are specialists in this field.
All our operatives have backgrounds in police, military or government surveillance teams, ensuring the highest possible level of expertise for clients. We can supply both male and female operatives, and have access to a wide range of vehicles, including motorcycles, cars and covert surveillance vans. All surveillance team members are equipped with digital and video cameras.
Bodyguard / VIP Protection
People in the public eye need to know that there is someone in the background who is looking out for their interests. Someone who will do what is necessary to advise and protect them without ever attracting unnecessary attention.
We supply fully trained, appropriately qualified close protection officers and personal security consultants to provide discreet, low-key protection and advice for clients.
Our close protection officers and consultants all have experienced military backgrounds. We give clients the choice of male or female specialists and we can also provide in-house drivers and residential security personnel.
Professional officers provide total security for clients and their families or businesses, while staying unobtrusively in the background.
Anti / Counter-Surveillance
ANTI -SURVEILLANCE Awareness is the first step in fighting a hostile threat or intrusive media operation. Our wide-ranging experience of working in hostile environments means that we are ideally equipped to detect this type of risk. Once we have identified a threat, we employ anti-surveillance techniques to protect our client's safety and privacy.
As a result of the quality of our team and our anti-surveillance expertise, we can offer our clients a level of service usually only available to diplomats and high-ranking government officials.
COUNTER-SURVEILLANCE In certain critical situations, clients need to have complete reassurance that their movements are entirely free of third party observation. A typical case might be where the client is involved in company mergers and acquisitions, or where business or social life activities could expose the client to personal background investigation from a competitor or hostile media intrusion.
In our experience, it is highly effective to use the findings of an anti-surveillance operation to reverse the procedure and make the hostile surveillance or investigative team the subject of our investigations. We will then liaise with and advise the client how to instigate a series of disinformation procedures.
Risk Assessment
High wealth or high profile individuals can be vulnerable to kidnap, ransom or robbery. They may also face the risk of unwanted media attention.
In these circumstances we will undertake a full security survey on individual clients and their properties, including a risk assessment on families and businesses where necessary. A 'pattern of life' analysis will identify the times and places where clients or family members are most at risk from hostile third parties or privacy intrusion from the media.
We will then provide the client with a full report featuring recommendations and advice on the best way to deal with the risks we have identified. This will enable clients to take the most appropriate steps to avoid any possible threat or risk.
Electronic Counter Measures
Hostile parties are increasingly using electronic devices to bug business premises, board meetings, private dwellings and phones in order to gather information covertly.
We provide a full debugging and sweeping service to give our clients peace of mind that they are not subject to unwanted electronic eavesdropping. We can sweep any facility, home, business premises, boat or aircraft for hostile devices. If we locate any devices, we discuss our findings with the client in a safe and sterile location, and subsequently agree an action plan.
Cyber Investigation & Protection
As cyber crime becomes increasingly prevalent there is a growing risk that hostile outsiders will track down valuable private and personal information about individuals online.
Our experience of security and network of technical experts enable us to offer our clients innovative smart solutions to combat this threat, from ethical hacking to computer checks. Our portfolio of resources includes network security testing, online intellectual property specialists, domain name management, recovery services and cyber evidence gathering.
Personal Profiles / Vetting
Personal profiles are invaluable in order to fill in the details that lie behind a CV. This service is particularly interesting for potential employers where the employment is of a sensitive or confidential nature.
When a client requires an in-depth vetting procedure, we use our investigative skills to secure a complete background profile on any individual.
Our standard vetting service consists of a background check in accordance with Criminal Record Bureau (CRB) disclosure regulations and an in-depth credit check.
We can also interview personal referees and carry out family and business background checks to establish viability.
Tracing Missing Persons
Discretion and investigative skills are paramount when tracing missing people, whether they are debtors or estranged friends or family members. We use a variety of skills to locate missing people utilising investigative techniques and our own global network of contacts.
Whether the client needs to trace the person for private or business reasons, they trust us to locate that person with maximum discretion and without compromising their own position.
Intelligence Services
INTELLIGENCE AND INVESTIGATION SERVICES You face enormous risks when you explore new business partnerships, new customers, and mergers and acquisitions. Due diligence is essential to minimise these risks.
Our team of experienced investigators is highly skilled at uncovering valuable deal-related background information and operational knowledge of third parties. We make clients fully aware of important background information, so they are in a stronger position before they sign any contracts.
Our intelligence and investigation services cover asset tracing and recovery, brand protection, and anti-counterfeiting and anti-money laundering compliance and investigations.
Specialist Equipment Procurement
Our specialist equipment procurement service is particularly useful for news and television film crews, charity organisations and corporations with workers in hostile areas of the globe where specialist equipment can be vital.
Using our global network of procurements contacts, we can supply clients with a wide variety of equipment that is not readily available on the open market.
We can locate and acquire aircraft, helicopters, high specification electronic communications systems, advanced medical trauma kits, armoured vehicles, body armour and a vast array of other specialist equipment.
In addition, we provide all the necessary legal documentation and can arrange delivery almost anywhere in the world.
