USGA delivers professional executive protection services for corporate leaders, VIPs, and high-profile clients. Armed and unarmed protection agents across the U.S.
The threat environment facing corporate executives, public figures, and high-net-worth individuals has grown significantly more complex. Targeted harassment, workplace violence, stalking, and reputational attacks can escalate into physical danger with little warning. For organizations, failing to protect key personnel is not only a human concern; it represents a direct legal, operational, and financial liability. Executive protection is no longer a luxury reserved for heads of state; it is a business continuity necessity.
Since 2017, Universal Security Guard Association has provided professional executive protection services to corporate leaders, VIPs, and high-profile individuals across the United States. Our executive protection agents are trained to anticipate, prevent, and respond to threats, delivering discreet, intelligence-driven security that moves with your client without disrupting their daily operations.
Many organizations underestimate the gap between hiring a general security guard and deploying a trained executive protection specialist. A standard security officer is not equipped to conduct advance site surveys, manage motorcade logistics, coordinate with local law enforcement, or adapt a protection plan in real time as conditions change. Without a structured executive protection detail, principals are exposed to risks that routine security simply cannot address, and incidents that could have been prevented instead become crises.
At USGA, our executive protection security services are built around proactive planning, not reactive response. Every detail begins with a threat assessment and a customized executive protection plan. Whether the assignment requires armed executive protection, close personal escort, secure transportation, or discreet background coverage, our specialists operate with the professionalism and situational intelligence that high-profile principals demand.
Our executive protection agents provide discreet close protection for corporate executives, VIPs, and high-profile individuals during daily operations, travel, and public appearances. Every detail is calibrated to the principal’s risk profile, schedule, and privacy preferences; without disrupting their professional or personal life.
Effective executive protection starts before the client arrives. USGA specialists conduct detailed advance surveys of venues, routes, and facilities to identify vulnerabilities and coordinate with local security or law enforcement. Threat assessments are updated continuously throughout the assignment to ensure the protection plan reflects current conditions.
Executive protection transportation requires more than a driver. USGA manages secure vehicle operations including route planning, counter-surveillance protocols, motorcade coordination, and emergency contingency routing; ensuring principals move between locations safely and without unnecessary exposure.
USGA designs corporate executive protection programs for businesses that need sustained security coverage for C-suite leaders, board members, or key personnel. Our corporate protection plans integrate seamlessly with existing security infrastructure and can be scaled up or down based on the client’s travel schedule and threat environment.
From red carpet appearances to private corporate events, USGA’s VIP executive protection teams manage crowd access, secure perimeters, and provide close escort for high-profile principals in dynamic, public-facing environments. Our agents blend professional presence with tactical readiness.
For principals facing elevated threats, USGA deploys licensed armed executive protection agents with specialized training in firearms, use-of-force law, and protective tactics. Armed details are fully licensed per state regulations and operate within a clearly defined command structure to ensure decisive, lawful action when it matters most.
USGA maintains licensed operations across multiple states including Florida, Georgia, Texas, Washington D.C., North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, Tennessee, Oklahoma, California, Kentucky, and Washington State. Our nationwide presence ensures consistent service quality and local market expertise wherever your facilities are located.

Executive protection is a professional, intelligence-driven security discipline designed to proactively identify and mitigate threats to a principal before they materialize. It goes far beyond the reactive presence of a traditional bodyguard.
A trained executive protection specialist or agent conducts advance surveys of venues and routes, develops a tailored executive protection plan, manages secure transportation logistics, coordinates with local law enforcement, and continuously updates threat assessments throughout an assignment.
Executive protection security services are designed for corporate executives, VIPs, public figures, and high-net-worth individuals whose schedules, visibility, and responsibilities create unique and ongoing security requirements.
A USGA executive protection detail is customized to the principal's specific threat profile, schedule, and operational needs. Standard components include:
- Secure transportation and motorcade management
- Coordination with venue security or law enforcement when required
For corporate executive protection programs, we also provide recurring security reviews and the ability to scale coverage based on travel intensity or emerging threat conditions. All details are built around a documented executive protection plan developed in consultation with the client.
USGA offers both armed and unarmed executive protection services, depending on the assessed threat level and the client's preferences.
Our armed executive protection agents are fully licensed in every state where they are deployed, trained in firearms handling and use-of-force law, and operate within a clearly defined command structure. For many corporate and VIP assignments, unarmed specialists with plainclothes presence provide the ideal combination of discretion and deterrence.
