If your budget allows, it’s likely best to entrust the experts to construct a full-spectrum security plan. Today’s corporate security firms offer far more than a hulking man in dark glasses to walk behind you. There are numerous companies in the field, such as David Shield Security, founded by former members of the Secret Service and Israeli Special Forces, and able to provide services ranging from the standard armored transport and bodyguards to cyber and technological protection.
Or Concentric Advisors, a risk management firm whose CEO is a retired U.S. Navy Vice Admiral. Concentric offers more than simply traditional security, but also intelligence and threat management services. These organizations actually come closer to the capabilities of national security agencies than they do the standard bodyguard offerings the public imagines.
That being said, there are still ways for any risk-averse individuals to enhance their own safety. Armored vehicles, previously only bulletproof, now offer additional options like defenses against chemical or biological weapons and secure communications.
Electronic sweeps of your home and office are no longer the purview of law enforcement alone, as handheld devices are now on offer that can provide peace of mind and a guarantee of privacy. What is required obviously depends on your personal vulnerabilities, threats and price range—but it’s clear that today’s security-conscious CEOs have more options at their disposal than ever before.
INKAS Armored Vehicle Manufacturing offers a mind-blowing array of security-conscious vehicles, ranging from extreme Armored Personnel Carriers for law enforcement agencies to inconspicuous civilian automobiles that won’t draw attention. According to INKAS’ VP of Marketing and Business Development Arthur Yurovitsky, the United States is the company’s largest market for luxury vehicles followed by Africa, Southeast Asia and Latin America.
“Our luxury vehicles typically end up with either VIPs whom are concerned with their safety while in transport, or the safety of their loved ones,” explains Yurovitsky. “Alternately, the same class of vehicles are in use by corporations, embassies and other government entities on a global scale.”
