Security Consulting

Global threats in Latin America and worldwide are forcing companies to take a harder look at their security programs. Kroll’s experts in security, protection, engineering, business continuity and emergency management help clients prevent, prepare for and respond to the many threats they face at home and abroad. From assessment to implementation, clients benefit from Kroll's seamless integration of services, resulting in a more efficient, cost-effective security program.

Our experts develop proactive, tiered approaches that can respond quickly to changing threat conditions and help ensure operational continuity in the wake of a crisis.

Kroll offers a wide range of protective services and training, which are described below.

Defensive Training

Kroll provides individual travelers with pre-trip training seminars designed to instill an alert and aware mindset. While the majority of our Latin America seminars are held in Buenos Aires (Argentina), Sao Paulo (Brazil) and Mexico City (Mexico), we can also provide training at locations that are more convenient to clients.

Kroll’s instructors are highly experienced professionals who also train special operations forces, government and law enforcement personnel.

Our corporate security specialists, for example can review and update your company’s travel security policies, plans, and procedures. Trained consultants can validate your company’s crisis management team, review existing documentation, assess communication protocols, and test emergency procedures.

If your company does not have a travel security plan in place, Kroll’s corporate professionals can develop and implement a program to ensure effective and efficient management of all crisis situations.

Personal Protection

Based on a thorough risk assessment, Kroll’s specialists can create a comprehensive personal protection plan for individuals. Security support ranges from “meet-and-greet” security escorts and vetted drivers to full protective details with armored vehicles that are available worldwide.

Our professionals teach individuals how to avoid danger at home and abroad. Training can take place at your site of operations in Latin America. Our own teaching facilities features multimedia classrooms, small arms ranges, defensive driving courses and defensive tactics training areas.
