The realization of the GSOC three years ago has allowed the league to expand its physical, cyber, and intelligence capabilities, and its partnership with Crisis24 has further increased its ability to monitor for online threats and mitigate potential security risks.

The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic completely changed the understanding of duty of care, and the adoption of an “all-hazards” approach has been critical in maintaining a dynamic and agile approach to risk management. 

As the League continues to expand its operating environment, relations with law enforcement both domestically and internationally are vital. The emphasis on close collaboration and transparency has led to better intelligence which has driven more effective and efficient decision-making abilities.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, foreign and domestic travel has either come to a halt or been drastically reduced. With this, the executive protection industry has had to adapt its services to meet new business requirements. A seismic shift to remote working has seen new security concerns arise, resulting in a growing demand for residential protective services. Organizations have also had time to review and re-evaluate their crisis management plans and duty-of-care obligations in relation to business travel. With secure transportation and private aviation previously only available to c-suite executives, increasing uncertainty over health and safety has seen this also being extended to mid-level employees.

Topics Include:

• Security concerns surrounding remote working
• Changing landscape of duty-of-care travel considerations
• Shift towards private aviation over commercial travel
• Secure ground transportation extending beyond just c-suite 
• Executive protection trends for 2022
