Securing Our Corporate Leaders: A Survey of Executive Protection Practices


All research begins with a question. Ours was simple: “What are organizations doing to protect their top people?”

The answer is deceptively complex—in part because of the vast range of corporate environments that exist, and in part because of the absence of central governing bodies or regulation around executive protection.

Based on survey results of more than 400 practitioners and interviews with more than 20 Fortune and Global 500 executive protection leaders, this study reveals the current state of corporate executive protection, ranks the top challenges and threats they face on behalf of their principals, and articulates eight best practices shared by programs identified as “best in class” by their peers.
