Sayeret Operational Solutions (S.O.S) much more than a kidnap and ransom insurance specialist demonstrating full service international security.
Who is sitting next to you in a country where this level of security is needed? Do they have real experience behind them OR an on-line certificate of completion?
STORY: Today, you drive down the side streets of Nairobi, Kenya excited about the contract you are about to secure. You nervously look out the tinted windows at your surroundings. To reassure yourself you look to the private security agent on your right, and hope that you hired the right protection team. You look to the other security agent on your left, and hope that you will never have to need their protection. You glance up from your Blackberry and notice a truck blocking the road. Your SUV slows to a stop, suddenly you hear a scream and see a masked figure sprinting toward you gripping an AK-47. You are deafened by an explosion and the windows shatter. Your look to your right and your agent seems to be hesitating. You look to your left and he is fumbling with his magazine. Gunfire cracks outside the car. The combatants are fast approaching. What was the plan for this situation? Is the emergency plan clear to you? What should you do? Why isn’t your protection team reacting fast enough? You yell at them to do something. The combatants are fast approaching… This is not a scene in “Clear and Present Danger” but a real possibility in today’s world.
No one wants this situation to occur, but when it does you want to know that this is not the first time your private protection team has been shot at. You need to know that you hired agents who have been tested in real combat situations prior to protecting you. Sayeret Operational Solutions (S.O.S) seems to have all the right credentials and is made up of combat tested Israeli Special Forces, Secret Service, and Israeli intelligence personnel. S.O.S offers an elite and highly professional international security option that supplies clients with some of the most highly skilled agents in the world. Their agents are all full-time operatives who spend time their free time training, shooting, and keeping their skills sharp.
Aside from a strict training regiment and mission specific scenario training, S.O.S has developed many military based techniques to certify that agents react extremely fast and with precision. S.O.S has developed small organic tactical teams. These teams are made up of highly trained agents who have trained together, lived together, and taken fire together. It is accepted that cohesiveness of a team is one of the most critical aspects of fast and appropriate responses.
A full service security company goes beyond kidnap and ransom insurance and can do all of the below. For example, S.O.S is combat ready and able to supply a range of worldwide services. All services listed below include intelligence gathering, security and risk assessments as well as contingency and emergency planning where the client takes an active role in brief but comprehensive emergency contingency training to ensure that the client is trained in proper reactions as well.
- Executive and VIP Protection- Specializing in high-risk areas, providing organic teams which is trained to react evasively and decisively in event of a suspected threat.
- Industrial Maritime Protection- We protect shipments moving through dangerous waters and docking in unstable ports.
- Yacht Security- At S.O.S. the most personable agents are dedicated to Yacht Security providing a discreet, friendly and professional security team which is able to respond quickly and decisively to any threat.
- Corporate Asset Protection-S.O.S provides comprehensive protection for a corporate facility overseas, or a corporation’s supply lines. This includes risk assessments, emergency and contingency plans, on the ground security and comprehensive training for employees.
- Train and Phase-S.O.S will enter corporate facilities or supply lines, will evaluate threats, document emergency and contingency plans, then train local security or company security (dependent on cost effectiveness). S.O.S will provide several agents to oversee security and then slowly phase out leaving only one supervisor. This is a more cost effective option for corporations with overseas business operations.
Buying kidnap and ransom insurance or executive “security services” is not enough. Who is behind the program, from the kidnap and ransom insurance consultant to the security specialist sitting beside you, is 95% of what you are buying. Anyone can put attractive terms on paper or a large kidnap and ransom insurance “benefit”, but what’s behind it?
