A close protection officer is not a wall but someone who anticipates: the route has been reconnoitred, the restaurant's entrance is known, and so is where the car waits and how to leave if the evening turns. Our close protection work falls under articles R631-18 to R631-22 of the French Internal Security Code and is carried out by officers holding the CNAPS professional licence specific to this activity.
We look after executives and their families, figures from sport, fashion and entertainment, and international guests passing through. The need is not always a specific threat. More often it is the wish to cross a crowd, leave a hotel or dine on a terrace without giving it a thought. The private bodyguard we place with you is calibrated to that level of exposure, no more and no less.
The arrangement works with the people around you: assistant, driver, household staff, organiser. When a MAROS security driver is at the wheel, driver and protection officer share the same instructions and the same schedule.
