VIS is able to provide and manage RSTs on an international basis. Typically, we operate with a very light footprint and will only use overseas personnel in senior management and training roles, preferring our selected local assets for other positions. Clearly this depends on the country, the internal threat and other considerations. VIS has provided a wide range of teams and different approaches. This can vary from a single Estate Manager position to teams of personnel with dogs, supported by Quick Reaction Teams along with proficient medical support.

REMOTE MONITORING OF ASSETS/ VIRTUAL SECURITY TEAM
VIS can provide an in-depth level of discreet security around a client, family and assets, via remote monitoring provided the security system has been configured to facilitate this. This might include: remote opening of key doors, time windows for alarm setting/deactivation as well as remote investigation of systems that have been triggered. Such measures are reinforced by ensuring that any security team deployed on a task is operating its procedures rigorously and mitigating the “insider threat” scenario.
