Your safety is our priority. With the help of our security partners at UnitedHealthcare Global Risk, we’re able to offer a full range of protection services. All security personnel are vetted, licensed, well-trained professionals capable of providing the level of protection you need. UnitedHealthcare Global Risk uses the best technology, methods, and people to provide clients the information they need to make decisions about their travel plans.

Threat Assessments
Unbiased security reports provide an assessment of what passengers and crew may expect upon arrival and while traveling within the surrounding region. Assessments consider potential threats to hotels, travel routes, airports, cities, and take into account security compliance advisories, allowing sufficient time to mitigate those risks before departure.

Personal and Aircraft Security
Additional services can be arranged through UnitedHealthcare Global risk including aircraft security guards, executive-level protection, and secure transportation for passengers and crew.

Aircraft Security Management
Uniformed aircraft guards provide 24-hour tarmac security, armed when permitted by the airport authority. UnitedHealthcare Global Risk guards adhere to a strict post-order protocol and may only be dismissed by the aircrew.

Secure Ground Transportation
Receive your driver’s name, cell phone number, vehicle type, and plate 48-hours in advance, and again confirmed 30 minutes before arrival, when your driver is required to be in position.

Security-trained Drivers
When conditions dictate, security drivers trained in preventative concepts and advanced driving techniques to avoid choke points and unsafe environments can be provided.

Executive Protection and Security Escorts
When travel requires the use of security escorts or bodyguards, UnitedHealthcare Global Risk turns to its international network of highly trained agents to provide low-profile protection and ensure clients are shielded from harm. Their agents are trained in unarmed combat, tactical driving, first aid, and firearm tactics.
