elite security when it matters most
Close protection is the most personal layer of a security program.
It places trained operators in direct proximity to the principal, with the purpose to ensure that no threat reaches you. At BSG, close protection is intelligence-led from the start. We assess before we deploy. We plan before we position. And we operate with a level of discretion that means most people around you will never know we're there.
WHO WE WORK WITH
01
C-suite executives, directors, and officers carry visibility that doesn't clock out when the workday ends. A recognizable name, a known role, and a predictable schedule are all the intelligence a threat actor needs. BSG makes sure that visibility never becomes a liability.
02
Wealth at the highest level creates visibility that extends far beyond what most people see. For ultra-high-net-worth individuals and families, the risk lives in the details: a home address on a data broker site, a recognizable routine, a family member whose school is three clicks from their name. BSG protects all of it.
03
Fame creates exposure that doesn't have boundaries. For celebrities and public figures, the threat environment shifts daily: new cities, new crowds, new exposure, and the protection detail has to move with it. BSG is built to operate in that world without disrupting the one around it.
04
High-profile travel introduces a threat environment that changes with every destination. Unpredictable crowds, schedules that are rarely as private as they should be, and unfamiliar ground create vulnerabilities that simply don't exist at home, and multiply with every leg of the journey. BSG is on the ground before you are.
what's included
Close protection operates as one layer of a connected security program, coordinated directly with residential security, driver services, and any existing infrastructure.
Our operators identify and neutralize surveillance before it becomes a threat, maintaining countersurveillance protocols throughout every engagement.
Mobile and static coverage are integrated seamlessly, ensuring protection is in position when the principal is moving or stationary.
Plainclothes or overt, the detail is built around the environment, the principal's lifestyle, and the level of visibility the situation calls for.
Armed and unarmed protection officers are assigned based on the specific threat profile and requirements of travel.
Every route, every movement, and every environment is assessed and cleared before the principal moves.
Baden Security Group's close protection team has operated in some of the most demanding principal protection environments in the world. Our operators have been deployed in active conflict zones across the Middle East, Africa, and Eastern Europe where threat conditions were live, resources were limited, and the protection of the principal was non-negotiable.
The same operators bring that standard to domestic engagements across major metropolitan areas in the United States, where complexity looks different but the requirement for precision does not. Each operator is selected, vetted, and deployed against the same criteria applied before their first real-world assignment.
Experience is not claimed here. It is documented.

the baden security group difference
Where the threat profile calls for it, we integrate K9.
Our K9 units operate beyond what any scanner can measure or human operator can see at distance, detecting what others miss, moving into situations faster, and changing the dynamic of any environment the moment they enter it, without anyone needing to say a word. Purpose-bred and trained to the highest standard in the world, BSG K9s do not supplement the detail. They multiply it.
Quiet when the situation calls for it, decisive when it doesn't, across residential properties, family environments, and major events alike. For principals with elevated exposure, that capability is not optional. It is how the detail is built.

OUR
ongoing intelligence PROCESS
A foreign dignitary required close protection in an alpine ski environment with immediate deployment, full medical coverage, and fixed-wing travel arranged on short notice following an unexpected change in itinerary.
The principal required agents capable of operating on pace with professional skiers, a capability that is not standard across the industry. When a contracted transport vendor failed to deliver during the engagement, the contingency was already in position. The principal reached their destination without delay. Zero security incidents were recorded across the full engagement. No two clients are the same. Neither is the protection program built around them.

Most of our clients come to us before something happens, not after.
If you're taking stock of where your security stands or simply want to understand what a protection program looks like at this level, a confidential consultation with our team is the right place to start.
