Frequently asked questions

Hiring close protection is an important decision. Whether you are arranging security for business travel, public events, or your family's daily peace of mind, find clear answers to common questions about our discreet, professional services below.

Everything you need to know

At Velcorian Security, we combine military discipline, policing backgrounds, and personalised risk management to ensure your safety domestically and abroad. Here is how our protection integrates seamlessly with your life.

Do I need to be a celebrity or public figure to hire close protection?

No. You do not need to be a celebrity or public figure to benefit from close protection. We support private families, business executives, high-net-worth individuals, and organisations facing specific threats, undertaking complex travel, or simply seeking reassuring everyday protection tailored to their lifestyles.

Will security disrupt my personal privacy and everyday routine?

Effective close protection provides reassurance without disrupting your lifestyle. Our approach prioritises discretion, professionalism, and absolute respect for your family's privacy. We adapt our procedures around your schedule, ensuring you maintain your normal routines and independence with minimal interference.

Will your officers be visible or discreet?

This is tailored entirely to your preferences and threat level. Our officers can operate discreetly in plain clothes in the background, or provide a visible security presence where deterrence is preferred. We integrate seamlessly into corporate meetings, private family outings, and international travel.

What qualifications and background do your officers have?

Our operations are built on a solid foundation of British military discipline and policing expertise. Every operative within our trusted network is fully vetted, licensed, and trained in high-level operational awareness, advanced driving, medical first response, and discreet risk management.

How does international protection work when travelling abroad?

We offer mobile protection that travels with you worldwide. Prior to departure, we analyse itineraries, accommodation, secure transport, and regional risks. We coordinate local logistics and remain by your side throughout your journey to ensure seamless continuity of safety and discretion across borders.

How much advance notice do you require for international deployment?

We recommend providing as much advance notice as possible to allow for thorough route reconnaissance, intelligence gathering, and operational planning. However, we recognise urgent travel needs occur and assess short-notice deployments on a case-by-case basis depending on destination requirements and visas.

What is the process after I reach out for a consultation?

We begin with a strictly confidential consultation to evaluate your schedule, concerns, and lifestyle. Next, we conduct a comprehensive risk assessment, build a bespoke security plan covering logistics and contingency protocols, and coordinate every operational detail before deployment begins.

How are costs and service agreements structured?

Because every client’s requirements, threat profile, and travel itineraries are unique, our pricing is determined following an initial risk assessment. We provide completely transparent, itemised proposals without hidden fees, whether you require single-event coverage or ongoing continuous protection.
