When analyzing celebrity protection, some would argue that it is the same as executive protection, which are all part of the principles and fundamentals of close protection security. There are many variations in the close protection field when it comes to protecting the human asset. As mentioned, the fundamentals and principles remain the same if you are going to ensure an effective protection strategy. However, one difference between providing executive compared to celebrity protection security is the latter’s public exposure, but there are other differences between the two.When analyzing executive protection in comparison with celebrity protection, it should be noted that executives are more reserved and unwilling to engage in extensive public interaction compared to their celebrity counterparts. Most executives are corporate leaders responsible for making important decisions for the company and their shareholders. Their unnecessary exposure can result in danger by an unsuspecting individual. Since there is no immediate need for unnecessary public exposure, executives are primarily shielded from this level of threat. The executive protection professional would advise against unnecessary or high-risk exposure when it is not necessary, and for the most part, the executive usually complies. On the contrary, celebrities for the most part are dependent on their fan base and are more willing to interact and be seen and photographed in public (Holder and Hawley 1998).
