Level IV · Personal Protection

Political and dignitary protection, scoped per assignment

A campaign stop, a campus speech and a visiting delegation each need their own plan. Ophion Tactical Security reviews your itinerary, venues, expected attendance and any host or agency security involved, then proposes a Level IV protection plan sized to that visit.

Straight answers.

The questions people ask before they reach out. If yours isn’t here, ask us directly.

Each assignment starts with a conversation about the principal, the schedule, the locations and any concerns you already have. From there we plan the advance work, the number of agents and how the principal will move. You get a plan built for that assignment, not a package.

Yes. Level IV protection agents generally work in a suit and tie or plainclothes rather than a uniform. Attire is matched to the setting so the agent fits the principal’s environment.

Yes, depending on the assignment and destinations. Agents accompany the principal during movement, with advance work planned around the itinerary. Ophion may provide transportation when appropriate, or work with a professional chauffeur partner when that is the better operational choice.

Yes. Ophion Tactical Security holds Texas Department of Public Safety license B28459401. Armed security officers are Level III commissioned security officers, and protection agents are Level IV Personal Protection Officers.

Send us the location, the schedule and what you need protected. We follow up to go over the details and confirm the scope with you. Your quote is built on that scope: the site, event or person, the hours and the staffing it takes.

You get a realistic start date, not a guess. It depends on where the assignment is, how much coverage it needs and how many officers it takes. If your event date is fixed, we tell you plainly whether we can staff it.

Need more than one kind of coverage?

Some assignments do, such as an event that needs security officers at the doors and a protection agent with the guest of honor. Open a category to see everything we staff.

Tell us what you need protected.

You don’t need to have it all figured out. Tell us what you need, and we’ll help you work out what coverage makes sense.
