Nairobi is one of Africa’s fastest-growing business hubs, home to government institutions, international embassies, UN headquarters, NGOs, multinational corporations, and wealthy expatriates.But it is also a city with high-risk areas, unpredictable street environments, organized crime groups, and elevated kidnap & robbery threats.

Our entire team consists of Israeli security specialists, former IDF Special Forces and Shin Bet, trained to operate in high-threat regions with complete discretion, planning, and situational awareness.
