Pillar 02

Risk & Security Advisory

Structured assessment, design, and governance of security and risk programs. We work upstream of operational delivery—defining what protection should look like before any team is deployed.

Assess. Design. Govern.

Threat & Risk Assessment

Structured evaluation of threats, vulnerabilities, and operational risk across people, facilities, and programs.

Service Scope

  • Threat landscape analysis (criminal, insider, geopolitical, reputational)
  • Vulnerability assessments against current security posture
  • Executive and key personnel risk profiling

Independent review and design of physical, procedural, and access-control measures for offices, residences, and operational sites.

Service Scope

  • Site surveys, perimeter and access control evaluation
  • Layered security design (physical, electronic, procedural)

  • Vendor specification and procurement support for security systems

Outcomes

A documented security program that aligns physical measures, technology, and procedures with the assessed threat—suitable for board review and insurer scrutiny.

Pre-incident planning and exercise design for situations that disrupt people, places, or supply chains.

Service Scope

  • Crisis management and incident response plan development
  • Personnel relocation and evacuation contingency planning

Service Scope

  • Policy and procedure development, review, and maintenance
  • Vendor performance monitoring and contract oversight

Pillar 03

Protective Operations

Operational delivery of protective measures—close protection, facility and residential protection, journey management, and personnel relocation. Scoped, designed, and governed under the same advisory framework as the rest of our work.

Plan. Embed. Protect.

Operational Delivery

Delivered Through Aegis One Protection

Protective operations within Fortbridge engagements are delivered through Aegis One Protection, our captive operational arm. Aegis One is a licensed protective services entity headquartered in Toronto, operating across Canada and internationally. Its personnel are drawn from special operations and law enforcement backgrounds and operate under defined standards of conduct.

This separation matters: Fortbridge advises, scopes, and program-manages; Aegis One executes under its own licensing and operational authority. Clients receive an integrated program with clear accountability at each layer.

Close Protection

Personal protective details for executives, principals, and key personnel—scaled to assessed threat and operational context.

Service Scope

  • Single-agent and full-detail protective coverage
  • Advance work, route surveys, and venue assessments
  • Domestic and international operations with local coordination
  • Event protection and high-visibility engagement coverage

Outcomes

Discreet, well-rehearsed protective coverage that allows the principal to conduct business and personal life with reduced risk and minimal disruption.

Facility & Residential Protection

Static and dynamic protective coverage for offices, residences, and operational sites—deployed against an assessed threat and documented in post orders.

Service Scope

  • Residential security teams (RST) and estate protection
  • Corporate facility protection and access control management
  • Concierge security, screening, and visitor management
  • Integration with electronic security and monitoring systems

Outcomes

Continuous, professionally-managed protective coverage of physical sites, with the documentation and reporting expected by insurers, boards, and regulators.

Journey Management & Secure Travel

Coordinated travel for principals and teams operating in elevated-risk environments, with planning, ground support, and continuous oversight.

Service Scope

  • Secure ground transport with vetted drivers and route planning
  • Airport meet-and-greet and seamless onward connections
  • Accommodation vetting and on-property protective presence
  • 24/7 operations centre support, check-ins, and incident response

Outcomes

Travelers reach their destination, conduct business, and return safely—with continuous oversight, defined check-in protocols, and immediate response capability if conditions change.

Personnel Relocation & Evacuation Planning

Pre-planned, coordinated relocation of key personnel from environments where conditions have deteriorated—executed against a documented plan, not improvised.

Service Scope

  • Pre-incident evacuation and relocation contingency planning
  • Decision triggers, communications protocols, and authority chains
  • Coordinated transport, safe-haven arrangements, and arrival reception
  • Liaison with insurers, embassies, and crisis-response providers

Outcomes

When a situation requires action, the plan exists, the people are rehearsed, and the decisions are pre-made. We do not improvise high-stakes movements; we execute documented contingencies.

Training & Special Projects

Structured training for client teams (security awareness, travel safety, crisis response) and specialized engagements scoped on a project basis.

Service Scope

  • Executive and family security awareness training
  • Pre-deployment travel and operational security briefings
  • Crisis response drills and tabletop exercises
  • Specialized projects scoped on a confidential, case-by-case basis

Outcomes

Client personnel who can recognize, avoid, and respond appropriately to common security situations—reducing dependence on protective coverage and improving overall posture.
