Select a service to see what it includes.
Close protection
A discreet presence, fully blended into your environment, for an effective protection detail without unnecessary exposure. A sensitive meeting, a trip, a period of heightened exposure: your agent accompanies you, anticipates and reacts without delay when the situation requires it.
- Agents
- 1 or moredepending on schedule and risk assessment

- Tailoredfrom a few hours to several weeks

Who it is for
Executives, managers, public figures, exposed private individuals, people receiving threats or going through a conflict.
What's included
- a risk assessment of your situation and schedule before the mission
- physical escort during your movements, on foot and by vehicle
- reconnaissance of venues and routes where useful
- evacuation to a safe place in the event of an incident
- a debrief with you at the end of the mission
How it works
It all starts with a confidential conversation: your situation, your schedule, your concerns. A risk assessment is carried out ahead of every mission: it determines the level of protection required, not a price list. On the day, your agent arrives fully briefed: they know your schedule, the venues and the routes.

Armed protection (A3PRA B & D)
Armed or unarmed, we tailor every deployment to the actual threat level. When a person's life is exposed to an exceptional risk, their protection may be provided by armed agents: vetted, trained and operational, within a strict legal framework.
- Agents
- Tailoredbased on risk assessment
- Weapons
- Categories B and Dsubject to authorisation
- Coverage

- Pricing
- On quotationafter reviewing your situation
Who it is for
People exposed to an exceptional risk to their life.
What's included
- a review of your situation, to check with you that the legal conditions are met
- the necessary applications to the administrative authorities
- vetted agents, trained and authorised to carry weapons, with regular training
- a deployment proportionate to the threat level
How it works
We first review your situation confidentially. If armed protection is justified, we start the authorisation process. Processing takes time, so the earlier you contact us the better. In the meantime, unarmed protection can be put in place.
Regulatory framework
Our operating licence covers the physical protection of persons, which may include category B and D weapons. Each armed assignment remains subject to authorisations issued by the administrative authorities, under the French Internal Security Code and Decree No. 2017-1844 of 29 December 2017.

Close protection team
When exposure is high or the schedule is busy, a single agent is no longer enough. We put together a team: a detail leader who coordinates, close protection agents and, where needed, an advance agent who checks venues ahead of time.
- Agents
- 2 or moreteam size agreed with you
- Duration
- Per missionfrom one day to an entire stay
- Coverage

- protection agents close to the protected person or persons
- advance reconnaissance of venues and routes
- constant communication between team members
- an end-of-mission report
How it works
We start from your schedule, hour by hour. We identify the sensitive moments (arrivals, departures, crowds, transfers) and size the team accordingly. Every agent knows their role before the mission begins.

Event protection
A gala, a premiere, a trade show, a film shoot, a general meeting: at high-profile media events, the public figure is the centre of attention, which is precisely when they need protecting. We protect them from arrival to departure.

How it works
We obtain the venue plan and the running order, identify access points, sensitive areas and exits, then finalise the deployment with the organiser.
Good to know
Venue and crowd security (access control, surveillance) is the responsibility of a security company licensed for that activity. Our role is the protection of persons: we work hand in hand with them.

A particular situation?
Every situation is different. Tell us about yours and we will design the protection that fits.
In the field
Planeside meet & greet, regular training and, for your journeys, executive vehicles and motorcycle escort with our partner Octa.
A successful mission is one where nothing happens.
In close protection, the real work happens beforehand. We prepare every mission: who you are, where you are going, what could happen and how to respond. On the day, our agents already know where the exits are.
Listen
A first, confidential conversation to understand your situation, your schedule and your concerns.
Assess
Profile, schedule, venues, threats: a risk assessment is carried out ahead of every mission. It determines the level of protection.
Plan
Number of agents, armed or not, routes, reconnaissance: the deployment is designed for you, and quoted.
Protect
Discretion, anticipation, reaction. An end-of-mission report, and adjustments where needed.
A strict framework, clear commitments.
Close protection is a regulated activity in France. Here is what you can count on.

About us
The demands of the field as our foundation
Jérémy Baudeau and Amine Bsikri have known each other for years. In 2024, they founded S.F.P.R with a clear core business: close protection, unarmed (A3P) or armed with category B and D weapons (A3PRA).
Secure transport is provided by their partner company, Octa.
Jérémy Baudeau · Amine BsikriFounders
20 years in the field
French and foreign political figures, sensitive sites, Sciences Po, the 2022 presidential election, the 2024 European elections, Milipol, Eurosatory.
A single point of contact
Every mission is tailored through bespoke analysis, with a single point of contact, from the first conversation to the end-of-mission report.
Our partner companies: for the security of your premises and events, call on DSP (licensed security officers, event security). For your journeys, Octa provides secure transport with security drivers. They are companies separate from S.F.P.R, as French law reserves close protection to a dedicated company. Each operates under its own licence (DSP: CNAPS licence no. to be completed · Octa: VTC register no. EVTC075240359). Same contact number: +33 6 51 57 67 97.
