Close Protection. Personenschützer im Einsatz, by Markus Schimpl, Black Book 22

YOU ARE THE SECURITY FOR EVERYONE YOU PROTECT.

Close protection begins long before a threat becomes a danger. Whoever assumes responsibility for the safety of another person must be able to identify risks, avoid dangers at an early stage, and act decisively in an emergency.

“CLOSE PROTECTION” is the compact practical manual for professional close protection.

Author Markus Schimpl comes from special forces and possesses extensive experience in close protection. He imparts practice-oriented knowledge regarding the requirements for protective agents, the preparation of protective measures, as well as the techniques and tactics that can be decisive during an operation.

Here is what awaits you in the book:

• The profession of a protective agent: What personal and professional qualifications are required?
• Public and private close protection: Tasks, requirements, and differences.
• Protective measures: How is the environment of a protectee secured?
• Vehicle and convoy security: Planning and execution of protected vehicle movements.
• Additional competencies: What role do data security, use of weapons, and martial arts play?
• The protectee themselves: How do they contribute to their own safety and support the work of their protective agents?

The book is aimed at aspiring and active protective agents, employees of private security services, as well as anyone involved with professional personal protection and escort services.
