Across the French Riviera and around the world, exceptional individuals deserve exceptional protection. Riviera Sécurité provides a bespoke close protection service, combining the highest level of operational expertise with absolute discretion.

Elite protection agents, selected to the highest standards

Close protection is a discipline in its own right, leaving no room for approximation. Our officers hold the specific CNAPS authorisation required for the physical protection of individuals and are carefully selected for their technical expertise, proven composure, and ability to blend seamlessly into the most exclusive environments: gala evenings, private travel, stays in luxury villas, or time aboard yachts.

Personal supervision for every assignment

With more than twelve years of field experience, including numerous close protection assignments in highly demanding environments, our Managing Director personally oversees the formation of every protection detail. Nothing is left to chance. Every detail is considered, every scenario anticipated.

Anticipation, discretion, bespoke protection

We do not provide standard security arrangements — we design a protection strategy specifically around you. Every assignment begins with an assessment of your movements, exposure profile, and personal requirements.

Confidentiality is absolute. Our presence is calibrated to remain virtually imperceptible to those around you, while maintaining complete and constant vigilance.

Your personal safety is our most important commitment.

Risk assessment is the cornerstone of any close protection mission. Our teams analyze the overall environment of the individual to be protected: their daily activities, movements, frequented locations, as well as social and professional interactions. This meticulous assessment allows us to map out threats, whether direct (attempted assaults, kidnappings) or indirect (invasion of privacy, harassment).

Our security experts work closely with clients to identify specific vulnerabilities and potential risk scenarios. Based on this information, a protection plan is developed, including preventive measures such as securing residences, offices, and travel routes.

Careful planning of routes and activities is essential to ensure the safety of individuals under close protection. At RIVIERA SECURITE CLOSE PROTECTION, our teams meticulously organize every detail of travel and daily activities to minimize risks and ensure optimal security.

This planning includes analyzing regular and occasional routes, identifying safe alternatives, and assessing potential risk areas. Our agents also coordinate schedules to avoid predictable patterns that could be exploited by malicious individuals.

For each mission, we implement secure protocols, including real-time monitoring, advanced reconnaissance of destinations, and emergency evacuation plans. This strategic approach ensures maximum protection while maintaining discretion and the client’s comfort in their daily life.

The effectiveness of a close protection mission relies on the agents’ ability to react quickly and efficiently to any potential threat.

Our close protection agents, in addition to their preventive role, are ready to intervene at the slightest alert, ensuring the immediate safety of the protected individual.

Deterrent presence and discreet protection

The presence of a close protection agent is often enough to deter potential attempts of aggression or intrusion. Our agents are trained to be visible when necessary but also to blend seamlessly into the environment when absolute discretion is required. They adapt their posture according to the client’s needs and the context, providing continuous protection without disrupting the individual’s daily life.

Their expertise in observation allows them to quickly detect suspicious behavior or anomalies in the immediate environment.

By maintaining a constant presence, they anticipate potential issues and take the necessary measures to neutralize threats before they become critical.

When the situation demands it, our close protection agents intervene without delay to safeguard the individual under their care. Their training includes self-defense techniques, rapid evacuation procedures, and crisis negotiation skills. This immediate responsiveness allows them to handle emergency situations with professionalism and composure.

In the event of a direct threat, agents employ evasion or extraction techniques to evacuate the individual safely. If confrontation is unavoidable, our agents are trained to neutralize aggressors while ensuring the client’s safety.

Our close protection agents rely on years of experience in crisis management, whether dealing with physical threats, harassment attempts, or unauthorized intrusions. Their priority is to neutralize threats as discreetly and quickly as possible, minimizing risks to the protected individual.
