King Safety and Security Ltd is a leading private risk management consultancy, specialising in the protection of notable individuals, families, and organisations. Based in London with a global footprint, we deliver sophisticated, intelligence-led security and risk programmes designed to mitigate complex and evolving threats—wherever they arise.
Founded by Matthew Beer in 2014, King Safety and Security was established to challenge industry norms and redefine what private security could look like. From the outset, our focus has been on setting new benchmarks for professionalism, discretion, and operational precision—backed by a culture of integrity, accountability, and quiet excellence.
We provide end-to-end protective solutions including close protection, secure transport, residential and site security, intelligence, embedded advisory, crisis response, and travel risk management. Our approach is consultative, strategic, and entirely bespoke—integrating live intelligence, technical surveillance awareness, and physical security planning into a unified, client-first service model.
Close protection remains a critical discipline within our organisation, but it is rarely deployed in isolation. It forms part of a wider security ecosystem designed to manage personal, reputational, and operational risk across both private and professional domains. Whether protecting a principal and their family across multiple residences, safeguarding a CEO during international travel, or delivering security infrastructure for corporate assets in hostile environments, we provide measured, discreet and effective solutions.
We remain the only provider in the UK to operate a proprietary CPO Selection Process—a rigorous, scenario-driven assessment process used to evaluate and onboard our close protection operatives. This ensures every KSS CPO not only holds the required qualifications, but also demonstrates the emotional intelligence, judgement, and adaptability demanded by our clients’ operating environments.
Our portfolio spans sectors and continents: from securing media crews and corporate teams in post-conflict regions, to providing long-term protective programmes for international dignitaries, family offices, and UHNW individuals with multi-jurisdictional risk profiles.
King Safety and Security is not a traditional security provider. We are a strategic partner—trusted to protect the people, places, and priorities that matter most. Quietly effective, globally capable, and relentlessly committed to delivering without compromise.
