LOCATION: United States

SERVICE:

• Executive Protection
• Secure Transportation
• Custom Intelligence

SITUATION: 

A high-profile client traveling to Las Vegas, Nevada for the Super Bowl required executive protection services to mitigate any risks associated with attending the event. As a well-known figure, the client was concerned with their personal safety, as well as the potential dangers of crime and violence that often accompany large-scale events. Although the client had an existing security detail in place, they were looking for an agent with local knowledge and intelligence to integrate seamlessly with, and enhance the capabilities of, the current team.

With on-the-ground security teams across the globe, Global Guardian was the client’s first call to request this level of support.

RESPONSE:

Global Guardian’s 24/7 Operations Center immediately began coordinating with its on-the-ground team in Nevada and identified an agent with geographical knowledge, security intelligence, and local law enforcement connections to integrate with the client’s security detail. Our team worked directly with the client’s security team throughout the coordination process, providing relevant updates and briefings on progress, including a full bio of the selected agent.

In the days leading up to the Super Bowl, Global Guardian’s local agent worked with the current security team to plan for the client’s arrival in Las Vegas. This process included scouting all locations and venues the client was scheduled to visit, driving routes in the area, and preparing threat assessments using local intelligence to mitigate any threats to the client’s safety and security. The agent also met with the security team at the stadium to coordinate parking and entrance procedures to ensure a seamless experience on the day of the game.

Once the client arrived in Las Vegas, Global Guardian’s agent provided secure transportation around the area, leveraging his geographical knowledge, as well as insight from analysts in our 24/7 Operations Center, who communicated real-time updates on traffic patterns and potential security risks. The agent also accompanied the client when visiting different event venues to deter and mitigate any threats.

By integrating the agent’s local knowledge and expertise with the client’s existing security team, the client received effective, 24/7 protection and was able to enjoy their trip to the Super Bowl without incident.
