Residential Security

With criminal activity becoming more sophisticated in the approach to infiltrating residential properties, we have found that more clientele are protecting themselves and their families not only with residential security teams, and/or dog units, but also employing GDS to upgrade their existing and often dated, security measures. GDS provides both male and female Executive Protection (Close Protection Operatives) to safeguard your residential property's in the UK & throughout Europe.

Surveillance

Providing surveillance involves the systematic observation and monitoring of specific environments or individuals to ensure safety, security, and compliance with laws or regulations. This process can utilise various technologies such as cameras, drones, and electronic monitoring systems, to gather realtime data and footage. Our surveillance operators have access to the latest equipment and have extensive commercial and military surveillance experience. Counter Surveillance GDS will identify the person, people, or organisation that is investigating you with access to the latest technical equipment. Our deployed surveillance operators work to a pre-agreed and stringently planned set of standard operating procedures which are formulated for each individual surveillance operation. Our specialised team has the skills and methods that can identify any surveillance measures targeting you. If you are under surveillance we will uncover the threat without revealing our presence, or compromising your integrity. Once you have full knowledge of the situation, depending on our findings and on the threat assessment, we can incorporate our private security expertise to plan for your Executive Protection and Residential Security requirements.

I met Dan & his team in 2010. The team offered us executive protection for some of our UHNW students on several of our annual school ski trips. All members of the team were incredibly discrete, efficient & professional. Our safety & enjoyment of the trips in Europe were paramount at all times, 24 hours a day. Dan's attention to detail was second to none and I would have no hesitation in recommending Dan & his team.

Protocol Officer N.Y United States

I initially had the pleasure of working with GDS & their operations manager in 2015. GDS were providing Executive Protection in New York, U.S.A, & assigned to a Diplomatic client whom I was providing protocol services for. I have worked with GDS on a further two assignments when our mutual client returned to the U.S.A on vacation. GDS's security & facilitating services were extremely professional. Our client was extremely satisfied with their services & the client was impressed with how GDS employees effortlessly integrated into the clients lifestyle & entourage.
