In today’s complex threat landscape, close protection training has evolved beyond traditional VIP protection services. At Assist Security Group (ASG), our approach to UK security training integrates intelligence-led security with hands-on personal protection skills, creating a comprehensive security risk management framework that sets new standards in the industry.
Paul Ephgrave MVO, ASG’s head of training and former Queen’s Police Officer, brings unparalleled royal protection experience to our SIA-qualified programmes. His expertise shapes our London close protection courses, ensuring they meet the demanding standards of modern corporate security solutions while maintaining the discretion and excellence expected at the highest levels of service.
Intelligence-Driven Security: The New Standard
Modern UHNW security and corporate headquarters protection demand sophisticated intelligence analysis. Our approach transforms traditional security practices into proactive, intelligence-led operations. The goal for security teams is to anticipate and prevent threats before they materialise, rather than simply responding to incidents.
Through comprehensive security intelligence analysis, our protection teams develop deep situational awareness. This enables them to identify subtle patterns and potential risks that might otherwise go unnoticed. Whether securing a high-profile event or protecting a senior executive on an overseas visit, this intelligence-driven approach provides a crucial advantage in today’s complex security environment.
The ASG Advantage in Close Protection Training
Our British security qualifications, including the prestigious Level 3 Close Protection certification, are enhanced by instruction from Metropolitan Police-trained experts. This elite security training combines theoretical knowledge with practical experience, creating security professionals who are equally comfortable analyzing intelligence reports and managing physical security challenges.
Professional Security Integration
Today’s security directors and facility managers face unprecedented challenges. Our training recognises that modern protection requires a seamless blend of intelligence gathering, threat assessment, and practical security measures. We teach protection officers to integrate real-time intelligence into their daily operations, from route planning to venue security management.
Our SIA-licensed practitioners learn to harness leading-edge technology while maintaining traditional security skills. This dual approach ensures they can protect clients across various environments, from corporate headquarters to retail establishments and entertainment venues.
The Intelligence Advantage
Intelligence-led security transforms how we approach risk mitigation. Our trainees learn to monitor digital threats while maintaining physical security, creating comprehensive protection strategies that address both traditional and emerging risks. This approach is particularly valuable in corporate security training, where threats can emerge from multiple vectors simultaneously.
Practical Application in Modern Security
The real value of intelligence-led security becomes apparent in its practical application. When managing event security planning or hotel security management, our trained officers continuously gather and analyse intelligence, adjusting their security posture in real-time. This dynamic approach ensures protection that’s both effective and unobtrusive.
Intelligence-led security represents more than just a new approach to close protection training – it’s a fundamental shift in how we think about security. By combining elite physical security skills with advanced intelligence capabilities, ASG delivers comprehensive security solutions that address the complex challenges of modern threat environments.
Our commitment to excellence in training ensures that every graduate is prepared to deliver outstanding security services, whether in corporate protection, event security, or personal protection. This comprehensive approach, backed by Paul Ephgrave’s extensive experience and our team’s expertise, sets new standards in UK security training and corporate security solutions.
