SEVEN’s management team brings years of security experience in niche services to each client. In addition, SEVEN’s unique training program encourages officers to become more proficient not only in their daily assignments but also in security specialties.
Clients can call on a range of services for short-term or long-term assignments in the following specialties:
 |
| Cargo Security |
SEVEN’s executives can help companies navigate the many local, state, and federal requirements that come into play when shipping cargo by land, sea, or air. If unusual packaging or containers are required, SEVEN can put clients in touch with partners experienced in handling specialized merchandise. SEVEN can also recommend ways to prevent tampering, provide checks in transit, and ensure that the appropriate delivery documentation is completed.

 |
| Executive Protection |
SEVEN’s personnel can provide short- or long-term protection for executives and their families. Officers are experienced in conducting security surveys of residential sites, making recommendations to tighten protective efforts, and implementing high-tech solutions that are unobtrusive but state of the art.
Should the executive need to travel, SEVEN can survey private living or hotel destinations and arrange security briefings on international destinations. SEVEN’s employees and partners can also recommend the best mode of transportation at each stop along the executive’s itinerary.

| High Risk Termination |
In today’s uncertain economy, lay-offs, terminations, buy-outs, job eliminations, and bankruptcies are a fact of working life. Whenever companies must let employees go, the affected persons as well as their coworkers are under added stress. Behavior can become unpredictable, and often additional security is needed to detect and defuse potentially volatile situations.
SEVEN’s expertise in human resources and personnel issues can take the pressure off executives who must not lose their focus on corporate goals. Experienced security officers can come to a work site and form non-threatening partnerships with employees. By developing a level of trust with terminated employees, officers can help smooth a difficult situation and show the remaining workers that the company is sensitive to the situation and its ramifications.
SEVEN’s management team stays on top of the latest thinking on these matters through memberships in professional organizations that focus on executive and human resources issues.

| Risk Management |
Few companies can view the risks to their business today in the same way they addressed it last year. Identifying and mitigating risks across an organization may involve everything from avoiding litigation to assessing credit risk. Both traditional security risks, such as asset protection, and broader security issues, such as safety, IT security, and brand integrity, can come into play.
SEVEN’s management team has encountered the sweeping nature of business risk in their collective careers. They are in a unique position to examine a company’s risk profile in a non-emotional way and without being confrontational. A thorough risk review by SEVEN’s management team can uncover both internal and external risks to a company that can easily be overlooked to those involved in its daily operation.
A complete report with recommended solutions provided by SEVEN can keep a company on the right course and avoid hidden pitfalls that could be catastrophic—or a new business opportunity.

| Threat Assessment |
Companies in critical infrastructure industries must constantly be aware of threats from both internal and external sources intent on doing irreparable harm to the United States, an industry segment, or a specific individual. On the other hand, nearly every company can become an innocent target of international hackers, organized crime, and common criminals.
SEVEN’s executives research the global threat profiles and geopolitical landscape that can lead persons to perpetrate illegal activities. Armed with that knowledge, they are in a perfect position to survey a client’s operations, looking for ways that the company’s personnel, property, information, and image could be attacked.
But analysis is not the full answer; SEVEN can take the next step and recommend policies, procedures, products, and services that can help plug the loopholes. While no security program is failsafe, SEVEN can help make sure that clients know the signs that could lead to disaster and are equipped to react appropriately should a breach occur.

| Workplace Violence |
As recent headlines have shown, companies cannot always know when a violent act will occur in the workplace. But headlines have also shown that no company is immune from the prospect. The cause of the violence can be work related, such as when negotiations break down between management and unions or when a disgruntled worker returns to wreak havoc. The cause can be entirely personal, however, such as when an irate spouse confronts his or her partner in the employee parking lot.
Working alone or in concert with a company’s human resources department, SEVEN’s management team can help train supervisors to be aware of behavioral changes among employees that could be the result of workplace or external stresses. They can also help a company’s executives prepare appropriate communications that can diffuse hostile feelings in union negotiations. With experience in many management disciplines, SEVEN’s management can be a valued partner in ensuring that employees feel safe and secure at work.
