What is residential close protection?

Residential close protection in Canonbury — securing the home and the people in it, combining CP officers with residential security measures.

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. Every residential close protection assignment in Canonbury is planned around your site, your risks and your budget — never a one-size-fits-all package.
