The Pentagon standard

Protection decided by intelligence, not by presence.

Pentagon was founded in 2000 by David S. Boone, a former Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Deputy and U.S. Army Reconnaissance Scout who went on to lead Executive Protection and Corporate Investigations at Toyota Motor Sales.

Every engagement begins with advance work and behavioral threat assessment. Coverage is then sized to the finding, which is why most Pentagon details are invisible to everyone except the principal.

  • Agents drawn from the Secret Service, FBI, SWAT, Special Operations and the Diplomatic Security Service
  • Trained by the State Department’s Diplomatic Security Service, with certified K9 explosives detection
  • Behavioral analysis training that no other firm on the West Coast provides in-house

More about Pentagon

Why Pentagon

What a boutique firm does differently

01

Prevention over reaction

Advance work, route planning and behavioral assessment come before any agent is assigned. The objective is that nothing happens at all.

02

Federally trained agents

Every agent comes from a federal or local law enforcement background, and is held to the standard those services set.

03

Discretion by design

Coverage is sized to the assessed risk. Most details are invisible to everyone except the principal and their family.

04

One accountable team

No subcontracted guard staffing. The people who plan your protection are the people who deliver it.

05

Available around the clock

Pentagon operates 24/7. One to two days notice is the practical minimum for an assignment, and urgent situations are treated as urgent rather than queued.

06

Twenty-five years in the field

Founded in 2000, with a client list spanning studios, Fortune 500 boards, private estates and federal agencies.

How quickly can Pentagon Executive Protection Services begin a new assignment?
One to two days is the practical minimum, and more notice is better: it lets the advance work, the vehicles and the assigned agents be planned properly. Urgent situations are still worth calling about and are treated as urgent rather than queued. Pentagon has put an agent on site within a day where a situation required it.
How many agents does a protection detail need?
The risk level sets it. A low risk assignment typically runs 1 to 2 agents, a medium risk assignment 1 to 3, and a high risk assignment 5 to 7. The assessment comes first and the detail is sized from what it finds.
