Surveillance Detection Strategies & Tactics

Course Fee: $995.00 per person

It’s certainly no secret that if the Security Driver, or Solo Practitioner, and their Principal are going to be confronted by a security threat, it will most likely happen while he or she is in or around a vehicle.

And, if history holds true, security incidents targeting specific individuals will – not may or might, but WILL– be preceded by some form of surveillance.

The most important question is whether those responsible for protecting “at risk” individuals have the knowledge, skill, and ability to detect the indicators and warning signs that someone, or some group, is actively targeting them.

Today, as even the least experienced adversary has access to digital information about their intended targets has dramatically reduced the time needed to identify and target even the most low-profile, security conscious executive, ultra-high net worth family member, or other public figures, the need for security practitioners to recognize the indicator and warning signs of potential threats has NEVER BEEN GREATER…or more important.

Surveillance Detection Strategies & Tactics

With all of this in mind, VDI is pleased to present our clients the opportunity to attend our world renown Surveillance Detection Strategies and Tactics course for:

  • Professional Security Drivers
  • Executive Protection Practitioners
  • Protection Managers and Other Security Providers

This intensive 3-day course is intended to meet the needs of the Security Driver or Solo Practitioner, as well as other protection professionals, by providing insights into:

  • Developing and maintaining the appropriate levels of situational awareness
  • Exactly where and when to look for the indicators and warning signs of an active threat
  • Managing and mitigating risks associated with hostile surveillance BEFORE a security incident unfolds.
  • Options for responding appropriately to potentially hostile surveillance.

Surveillance Detection a Practical Perspective

Surveillance Detection: a Practical Perspective

Recognizing that while the Solo Practitioner approach – where one protection practitioner is responsible for managing the wide range of risks their Principal may face – is not the optimum approach to doing so, it is in fact being effectively implemented far more often and successfully than many in the profession would care to admit, it’s worthwhile to take a closer look at the strategies and tactics which contribute to the effectiveness of the Solo Practitioner paradigm.
