Trusted diplomatic security for businesses, sites and individuals in Old Street. Licensed, insured and locally responsive across East London, around the clock.
Diplomatic security in Old Street — experienced protection for diplomats, officials and delegations, with protocol awareness and discretion.
As part of our wider close protection in Old Street, this service is delivered by officers who are trained, licensed and briefed specifically to your premises. Close protection (CP) is the professional protection of a person from harm, harassment or intrusion. It combines advance reconnaissance, secure travel, residential security and a trained CP officer or team who manage risk discreetly.
From busy commercial districts to quieter sites on the edge of East London, Old Street needs security that fits its surroundings. We assess your premises, agree exactly what cover looks like, and put licensed officers in place who can respond quickly across Old Street and the neighbouring areas.
Executives, high-net-worth individuals and families, public figures, celebrities, diplomats and anyone facing a specific threat use close protection to move and live safely without a heavy, intrusive footprint. If that sounds like your situation in Old Street, we can help — and there's no job too small or too large.

Not sure whether diplomatic security is the right choice for your Old Street site? We'll tell you honestly.
