The GTS Standard

Discreet. Professional.
Effective.

Every GTS operative is selected from the top tiers of military special operations, federal law enforcement, and intelligence agencies. Our standards in vetting, training, and conduct are built around a single principle: your protection must be invisible to the outside world while being absolute to you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Professional event security is about much more than having security guards at the entrance. A complete security plan can include guest screening, access control, crowd management, VIP protection, perimeter security, video surveillance, backstage security, K-9 teams, drone detection, and coordination with local emergency services. Every event has different security needs. Global Threat Solutions develops customized security plans based on the venue, guest count, event type, and overall risk environment.

The earlier, the better. For most events, security planning should begin several weeks in advance to allow enough time for venue assessments, staffing, credential planning, emergency procedures, and coordination with local authorities. Larger events, festivals, or high-profile gatherings often require even more preparation. Planning ahead helps identify potential risks before event day and ensures everything runs smoothly.

Venue staff typically focus on customer service, ticketing, or event operations, while professional event security is responsible for keeping guests, staff, and the venue safe. Security personnel are trained to manage crowds, control access, identify potential threats, and respond quickly during emergencies. Their role goes beyond simply being present — they actively monitor the event and are prepared to handle unexpected situations.

Credential control helps ensure that only authorized people can access specific areas of an event, such as VIP sections, backstage areas, production zones, or restricted spaces. By issuing and checking credentials throughout the event, organizers can prevent unauthorized access, improve safety, and keep operations running efficiently.

Private events usually require a more discreet approach. Security teams often work in plain clothes, focus on protecting VIP guests, and provide security without disrupting the overall guest experience. Large public events, on the other hand, require visible security personnel, crowd management, entry screening, perimeter control, and close coordination with police and emergency services. Global Threat Solutions tailors every security plan to match the size, style, and unique requirements of each event.

Before an event begins, security professionals conduct a thorough assessment of the venue to identify potential risks and plan accordingly. This includes reviewing entrances and exits, emergency evacuation routes, crowd flow, communication points, restricted areas, and any security vulnerabilities. A detailed venue assessment allows potential issues to be addressed before guests arrive.

VIP security is designed to protect high-profile guests while allowing them to move comfortably throughout the event. Depending on the situation, this may include dedicated security personnel, private entrances, controlled arrival and departure routes, secure waiting areas, and close coordination with the overall event security team. The goal is to provide seamless protection without disrupting the guest experience.

Unauthorized drones can pose serious risks at public and private events. They may be used for unauthorized filming, invade guests' privacy, disrupt activities, or even create safety hazards. For larger or high-profile events, Global Threat Solutions can incorporate drone detection technology to identify and respond to unauthorized drones before they become a security concern.

Professional event security doesn't operate alone. Before the event begins, security teams coordinate with local police, fire departments, and emergency medical services to establish communication plans, emergency procedures, and response protocols. This preparation helps ensure that if an emergency occurs, everyone knows their role and can respond quickly and effectively.

The right number of security personnel depends on several factors, including the size of your event, the venue, expected attendance, VIP presence, crowd demographics, local risks, and the type of event you're hosting. Rather than using a standard guard-to-guest ratio, Global Threat Solutions conducts a professional risk assessment to determine the level of security that's appropriate for your specific event — ensuring you receive the protection you need without unnecessary staffing.
