Residential Protection
Residential protectors respond to and manage emergencies, provide medical emergency response, provide access control, manage vendors and service providers, and deter intruders. We design and operate within Command Centers (CCs) that become the nerve center for those properties. All technology and early warning detection systems feed into these Command Centers, including surveillance cameras, infrared beams, motion detectors, safety alarms, contact and listening devices, and other resources that enhance clients’ safety and convenience at home.
Global Operations Centers (GOCs)
Staffed around the clock, GDBA-designed Global Operations Centers (GOCs) offer our commercial clients worldwide site and system monitoring and support services via remote monitoring technologies. Associates assigned to GOCs also assist our clients’ own Corporate Security and Risk Management Teams with physical security, investigations, country reports, difficult terminations, reviewing incident-reports from remote locations, system troubleshooting and updating, and data sorting.
Corporate Security
GDBA designs and staffs security programs for business clients who desire an elevated level of security for their employees, facilities, and proprietary information. In many cases, our firm becomes the ipso facto security department for a client’s company. Assigned protectors manage access control, escort vendors through sensitive environments, and screen material brought into and taken out of corporate offices. We also provide security coverage surrounding difficult terminations, demonstrations, and other times of elevated risk. Our well-versed corporate security team operates in major cities like San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York, London, and many more.
Field Details: Public Appearances, Special Events, and Secure Transportation
GDBA protectors have provided logistical support and protective coverage at literally thousands of movie sets, film premieres, speeches, book signings, awards shows, special events, performances, talk shows, interviews, and court appearances. GDBA protectors first become thoroughly familiar with the venue of a public appearance, identifying the safest and most efficient foot-routes, vehicle staging areas, holding rooms, assigned tables, nearest medical assistance, etc. Our clients are guided smoothly through (or more ideally, around) a sea of press, fans, and general confusion. Additional protector responsibilities include providing and developing:
- Surveillance detection
- Counter surveillance
- Medical emergency response
- Safety and security briefings for client staff
- Natural disaster contingencies
- Written supplemental and after-action reports
- Mentorship to new GDBA associates
- Effective communication to a wide audience – from a vendor to the client
- Collaboration with divisions outside the Protective Security Division, such as Investigations, Intelligence, Threat Assessment, Technology, Training, and Recruitment
