Close Personal Protection FAQ
What is close personal protection?
Close personal protection, also referred to as executive protection or bodyguard services, is the professional practice of safeguarding an individual from physical threats, harassment, and security risks through the deployment of trained protective agents. It goes beyond a visible security presence and includes advance work, threat assessment, secure transportation, intelligence gathering, and real-time tactical response. Arux Group’s close personal protection programs are built around each client’s specific threat profile, schedule, and environment.
Do you provide executive protection for high-net-worth individuals and their families?
Yes. Arux Group provides close personal protection for high-net-worth individuals, ultra-high-net-worth principals, and their family members throughout the Pacific Northwest and beyond. Programs are built around the specific lifestyle, schedule, and threat profile of the principal. Services include residential estate security, secure transportation, advance work, and discreet protective details for daily activities, private engagements, and travel. Discretion is a non-negotiable operational standard across every engagement.
Do you provide executive protection for Fortune 500 companies and C-suite executives?
Yes. Arux Group works with corporations, including Fortune 500 organizations, to provide close personal protection for C-suite executives, board members, and high-profile corporate principals. Programs are designed to integrate with the executive’s business schedule without disrupting operations. Services include threat assessment, advance work, secure transportation, and event security for corporate functions, public appearances, and travel.
Do you provide security for family office principals?
Yes. Arux Group provides close personal protection and residential estate security for family office principals and their household members. Protection programs for family office clients typically include a combination of close personal protection for the principal, residential security for the primary estate, and coordinated coverage for secondary residences and travel. All engagements are built around the specific requirements and privacy standards of the family.
What does residential estate security include?
Residential estate security for high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth clients includes a property vulnerability assessment, on-site security personnel, access control protocols, visitor management procedures, and 24/7 coverage options. For principals with multiple residences, Arux Group coordinates security protocols across locations so coverage is consistent regardless of where the principal is in residence. All residential programs are built around the lifestyle and privacy requirements of the client.
Can you coordinate security across multiple residences?
Yes. Arux Group develops coordinated security programs for principals who maintain multiple residences across different cities or states. This includes establishing consistent access control protocols, property-specific vulnerability assessments, and deployment frameworks that ensure coverage is in place at each location when the principal is in residence. Security coordination across residences is a standard component of programs designed for high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth clients.
What is the difference between a bodyguard and an executive protection agent?
Arux Group’s Protective Security Specialists are trained executive protection professionals drawn from law enforcement, SWAT, military service, and extensive security backgrounds, not general security personnel. A bodyguard typically refers to an individual hired to provide a physical deterrent and reactive protection. An executive protection agent operates at a significantly higher level, combining proactive threat assessment, advance work, intelligence gathering, secure logistics, and discreet protective presence into a coordinated program.
Who needs executive protection?
Executive protection is appropriate for any individual whose profile, position, or circumstances create an elevated personal security risk. This includes corporate executives and C-suite leaders at Fortune 500 and large private companies, high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth individuals, family office principals, public figures, board members, and anyone who has received credible threats. It is also appropriate during specific high-risk situations such as hostile terminations, contentious litigation, travel to elevated-risk locations, and major public events.
How discreet is your executive protection service?
Discretion is a core operational standard at Arux Group, not an optional feature. Our agents are trained to maintain a protective posture without drawing attention to themselves or to you. We understand that many clients require protection that does not signal vulnerability to the public, clients, or business partners. Our agents dress and conduct themselves appropriately for your environment and operate with absolute confidentiality regarding your schedule, movements, and personal information.
Do you provide executive protection for travel?
Yes. Arux Group provides comprehensive travel security for executives and high-profile individuals traveling domestically and internationally. Services include pre-travel threat assessment and intelligence briefings, secure ground transportation, advance work at destinations, on-the-ground protective detail, and contingency planning for the full itinerary. We maintain active situational awareness throughout the duration of your travel. Learn more about our travel security program.
Are your executive protection agents licensed and certified?
Yes. All Arux Group Protective Security Specialists are fully licensed under Washington DOL and Oregon DPSST standards. Agents attend nationally recognized executive protection academies and complete our internal training program, which maintains proficiency in covert operations, tactical medicine, and threat assessment. We hold a Security Company License in Idaho and are licensed to operate throughout Washington, Oregon, and Idaho.

Executive protection rates at Arux Group vary based on the scope of the engagement, the number of agents required, the duration and schedule of coverage, the level of advance work involved, and whether secure transportation is included. We maintain a four-hour minimum per engagement. We do not publish flat rates because no two protection programs are the same. Contact us and we will provide a detailed written proposal within 48 hours of your inquiry.
