International Executive Protection — High-Risk Destination Security
Principal-level close protection for executives operating in complex and elevated-threat environments.
Standard corporate security protocols — badge access, travel alerts, generic security briefings — do not translate to high-risk international environments. When an executive lands in Lagos, Bogotá, or Karachi, the threat picture changes categorically, and a domestic security posture provides no meaningful coverage.
Wilson Global Protection Group operates where institutional security infrastructure is thin, compromised, or absent. Our team provides advance work, in-country intelligence, and principal-level close protection specifically calibrated to the destination — not lifted from a template designed for lower-risk markets.
Every international engagement is led by Kenneth Wilson, whose five protection credentials and operational history in complex environments inform every decision from initial threat assessment through final extraction.
Clientele
Who This Is For
International protection engagements are scoped for principals operating in environments where the threat profile demands more than a standard travel security protocol.
Executives Traveling to Africa
Principals operating in Sub-Saharan Africa, West Africa, or conflict-adjacent zones where infrastructure and institutional security are unreliable.
Corporate Delegations in Latin America
Teams operating in Mexico, Colombia, and Brazil where kidnapping, targeted crime, and cartel-adjacent risk demand advance planning and experienced local coordination.
Dignitaries and Government Officials
Officials and diplomatic personnel requiring discreet, professionally-managed close protection on international engagements.
HNW Individuals with International Interests
High-net-worth principals with family, business, or investment interests in elevated-threat markets who require a consistent protection posture abroad.
Scope of Work
What the Engagement Covers
International close protection engagements are built around the destination threat picture, not a standard template. Below is the core scope for a typical deployment.
Pre-travel threat intelligence briefing and destination risk assessment
Advance team deployment to establish route security and safe havens
Close protection detail for the duration of the engagement
Secure ground transportation coordination
Emergency extraction planning and contingency protocols
24/7 direct access to Kenneth Wilson throughout the engagement

Discretion
Non-branded vehicles, plainclothes teams, and low-profile operational protocols designed to protect the principal's schedule and composure alongside their safety.
Direct Access
Kenneth Wilson is personally involved in every international engagement — not a junior associate. Clients deal directly with the principal of the firm.
