SECURITY SERVICES

to us and undertake thorough retraining to meet our high standards. We do not sub
contract personnel from other companies as they have not undergone our training

Specialist services
RED TEAMS
Our Red Team personnel are highly experienced in this area. They are a mixture of
specialist military and civilian operatives who have extensive knowledge of penetration at
government levels.
A red team is an independent group that challenges an organization to improve its
effectiveness. Private business, especially those heavily invested as government /defence
contractors such as IBM and SAIC utilise these services. Government agencies have long
used Red Teams to find weaknesses in their security protocols.
Red teams assess organization security, often unbeknownst to client staff. This provides a
more realistic picture of the security readiness than exercises, role playing, or announced
assessments do. The Red Team may trigger active controls and countermeasures within a
given operational environment.
This service is particularly effective in the assessment of Close protection & residential
security teams. This is not to criticize security elements, but to seek out weaknesses and
liabilities due to human error or other factors and demonstrate these weaknesses to advise
on measures to correct them.
Our teams can provide this tailored service to Corporate, private and government entities.

RAPID INTERVENTION TEAMS
Kidnap and ransom, along with human trafficking, are particularly violent criminal acts,
as the objects of kidnappings are frequently chosen specifically because the targets are
defenceless and vulnerable. Many kidnappers are professionals and highly aggressive in
such endeavours, and therefore the associated risk of harm to the hostage can be great.
During captivity the risk of abuse to the hostage remains high.
Guardian ISS, with its team of experienced personnel, logistical support elements and a
rapid response capability, is well positioned to bring this type of expertise into play by
providing immediate evacuation planning and arrangement of mission support logistics,
while concurrently dispatching an experienced surveillance, intelligence & evacuation
team to any region in the world.
In addition, we can, if required, provide emergency medical assessment, first aid, drug
administration, and emergency medical treatment necessary to stabilize individuals until
they can be transported to a safe regional medical facility for further treatment.
Our evacuation team members are accustomed to operating fully independently in
remote and hostile environments, including those where personal safety and the rule of
law can be fluid elements under the best of circumstances.
In such cases, we are prepared to use whatever means are necessary, including
unconventional extraction methods, to secure the safe passage of our team and our
target evacuees from the area of unrest to the nearest designated safe area.
We will, were possible, liaise and coordinate with local and international governments
and law enforcement agencies for support and legal procedures. Each operation will be
assessed individually to recognise the legalities and risk assessment of overt or covert
operations and the possible support from local agencies.
The Rapid Intervention Team has been formed to provide a quick reaction once notified
of the current or impending actions by such groups. Due to our ability to provide teams
on the ground at short notice, we can respond quicker than most government or local
agencies to any incident, which is vital in locating those who have been taken.
Guardian’s vision of the RIT is, but not limited to, reaction to incidents where individuals
or groups have been kidnapped, or the location they live in is at risk from terrorist or
criminal elements due to their religious beliefs.

REMOTE REGION SECURITY RECONAISSANCE
This service is a necessary solution for those intending on visiting or considering to set up
a base of operations in remote or hazardous regions of the world.
We can provide critical information with “eyes on the ground” of the complexities and
hazards in the location by assessing where needed some of the following:
Threat & risk analysis · Health & Safety · Identification of suitable premises · Identification
of local leaders · cultural diversity · local and regional laws ·Known criminal/terrorist
organisations · Liaison with local law enforcement · Security protocols & requirements to
include emergency evacuation plans.
This service is conducted by former military personnel from recognisance units and the
intelligence communities.
On completion of the service, clients will receive a complete written report outlining the
findings along with video and photographic evidence and recommendations to ensure
your safety.
This service is an asset to NGOs, Aid workers, Religious groups, corporate entities and the
film production industry.
