Advisory and training

SuccessNew tech changes your risk profile.

One Gart advisor reviews what draws attention to you: your home, travel, family, staff and assets. Then builds your plan for prevention and response. We advise founders, executives, investors and the people around them.

Executive training, in person for you and the people who run your company or look after your wealth Family training, in person for your closest circle, including your children and the people who work in your home Private group training, a whole day on personal security fundamentals in the city of your choice
Your own

Reasons to have a plan.

Your profile is researchable in an afternoon. Your response plan should already exist.

Visible or assumed wealth

  • You hold moderate or significant assets.
  • You look after other people's wealth.
  • Your company raised money.
  • You sold a business and the price is public.

A public life

  • You represent a business with your name and face.
  • You speak on stages and podcasts.
  • You or your family travel more than you used to.

Leaks and AI

  • Your personal data has been leaked.
  • You couldn't tell a deepfake call or an AI-⁠written message from the real person.

A threat already

  • You've been threatened, or you think someone might be targeting you.
Engagement

From first call to a plan that holds.

01

First call

Ninety minutes on your situation and what you already have in place.

02

Assessment

We map your exposure against documented cases.

03

Written protocols

Who acts, what they do, whom they call. Loaded into the Gart app.

04

Rehearsal

Walk-throughs with your family or team until the plan runs without you.

05

Ongoing calls

Priority access when something changes: a trip, a move, an incident.

In-person training

You can't plan and rehearse response on a call. Spend a day with an expert.

In-person training, a day with a Gart expert

Session 4

Response practice

The first 60 seconds, crisis communication, negotiation, post-release treatment.

Programs

Choose your program.

Most "security training" is compliance theatre or marketing to sell you close protection. Ours respects your intelligence, your privacy and your threat profile.
