In Residential Executive Protection programs (Residential Security Teams / Detail) it's imperative to apply the concept of "concentric rings of protection". Concentric rings of protection, also known as "layered security" or "protection-in-depth", is a security strategy that uses multiple layers of protection to deter and detect threats. This concept enhances a security teams performance as it allows the executive protection team to deter, detect, delay an intruder and allow for the protection team to respond quickly.
How it works:
Each layer of protection is designed to make it harder for an intruder to reach their target
The outermost layer is the easiest to penetrate, while the innermost layers are the most secure
Each layer has a different level of security, such as physical barriers, electronic access controls, or cybersecurity protocols
The goal is to make it as difficult as possible for an intruder to succeed
Why it's important:
Concentric rings of protection can help protect people and property from physical intrusions, cyber-attacks, and insider threats
This strategy can help ensure a rapid and effective response to security breaches
Examples of concentric rings of protection:
Perimeter fences: The outermost layer that deters unauthorized access
Perimeter gates: Driveway gates and pedestrian gates
Perimeter lighting: Motion lighting or lighting continually on
Secure doors: The inner layer that controls access to sensitive areas
Biometric scanners: The inner layer that provides more sophisticated security
Cybersecurity protocols: The inner layer that protects against cyber-attacks

Should the design of the residential property not illustrate any forms of "concentric rings of protection", a good solution would be to conduct a residential security assessment of the property. The findings of your report could shed light on security upgrades and improvements to ensure your client has some form of a layered protection.
