Three Decades of Executive Protection Excellence
A Legacy of Protection in Florida
Founded in 1992, Critical Intervention Services (CIS) has established itself as the premier provider of executive protection services throughout Tampa, Orlando, and South Florida. For over 30 years, CIS has safeguarded hundreds of at-risk individuals including corporate executives, attorneys, wealthy families, celebrities, and political figures.
The company’s reputation is built on a foundation of customized security solutions that address each client’s unique risk profile and personal characteristics. CIS recognizes that effective protection requires both art and science, adapting strategies to fit professional activities, lifestyle, and family circumstances.
Comprehensive Security Solutions
CIS offers more than traditional bodyguard services. Their multi-dimensional approach includes behavioral threat assessment, protective surveillance, collaboration with legal experts, and physical security assessments for residences and offices. This comprehensive methodology has made them particularly effective in handling stalking cases, domestic violence situations, terminated employee threats, and labor disputes.
The CIS Difference: People and Expertise
The company’s protection specialists include former U.S. Secret Service agents, veteran Florida police officers, and graduates from elite executive protection academies. These professionals are selected not only for their technical skills but also for their personal qualities including diligence, discretion, and emotional intelligence.
Innovation in Security Practices
Beyond executive protection, CIS has pioneered innovative security strategies including the Guardian SafeSchool Program and Private-Sector Led Public Safety initiatives. Their Anti-Terrorism Officer program was endorsed by the U.S. Government Accountability Office as a “model for critical infrastructure protection.”
The company’s methodologies have been featured in criminal justice textbooks and received endorsements from institutions such as John Jay College of Criminal Justice, positioning CIS as not just a service provider but an industry leader shaping best practices in security.
For businesses and individuals facing security challenges in Florida, CIS offers proven expertise with a personalized approach that addresses modern security threats while preserving client dignity and lifestyle.
