Westminster Security is an independent, private security company based in the heart of Central London. Specialising in close protection we provide high-end personal security services to high-risk, high-profile companies, families, and individuals. Including government officials, royalty, and heads of state. Operating throughout the United Kingdom with a subsidiary company in Paris, we regularly operate worldwide in support of our globetrotting clients.
Being a ‘quintessentially British’ company, we are a keen supporter of British jobs and industry. We express our support by employing British armed forces veterans, retired police officers, and emergency service workers. We were the first security company in London to sign and adhere to the Armed Forces Covenant pledge, the first security company in London to join the London Living Wage scheme, and the first private security company in the world to accept secure cryptocurrency payments. As a leading security company, we act as an ambassador for Britain to many overseas visitors and countries, and as such we operate to the Great British standard, which is world-renowned for its excellence, efficiency, and innovation.
Westminster Security was established by a former Royal Military Police close protection officer, with over 20 years of active experience within the British armed forces and private security industry.
