Depending on your threat levels you will benefit from a personal protection security service in more ways than one. Some of the benefits of professional bodyguards are:

Bodyguards can work as an individual, or more commonly as a team. Bodyguard services can be a casual role carried out for people under a temporary threat, or an isolated incident. A bodyguard can also be a full-time role which in some cases include living with the principal permanently or for a temporary time period. A bodyguard's role isn't just to escort the principal. 

A fully inclusive bodyguard service includes planning trips through Australia and the routes taken to the destination along with alternate routes to take should the original route be compromised. Bodyguards also perform room searches and check the destination for known security threats prior to the arrival of the principal. 

Bodyguards may simply escort the principal for their day to day activities ensuring safety and recognising threats. If the threat to the principle is known extensive research and checks are performed to minimise the risk as much as possible. A temporary role for an event or appearance demands extensive research of possible unknown threats, travel routes and departure and arrival locations. Often The security threat for celebrities and public figures is the general public. 

The general public can be hard to contain and minimise the risk which is why extensive planning must take place. Threats that a principal could encounter, and that need to be planned for include but are not limited to:

• Assault
• Theft
• Harassment
• Exploitation

• Assassination
• Loss of confidential information
