02 Capabilities
Security Advisory & Training
Security audits, executive and operator training, hostile-environment preparation, counter-UAS awareness and crisis planning.
Security fails at the points where planning stopped. Atreides audits those points, then prepares the people who have to act when something happens.
Advisory and training are delivered together because they answer the same question from two directions: what is actually exposed, and who is ready to deal with it.
Corporate Risk Assessment & Security Audits
We audit corporate headquarters, sensitive facilities and private residences to establish real rather than assumed protection.
- Physical security: perimeter, access control, surveillance coverage and blind spots
- Procedural security: how people, contractors and visitors actually behave versus policy
- Information exposure: what an outside observer can establish about the organisation and its principals
- Insider risk: privileged access and the conditions that make misuse possible
Each audit produces a prioritised remediation plan with realistic cost and sequencing, not a list of findings.
Executive Security Awareness
Senior figures carry a risk profile most protection programmes never address, because the exposure follows them into ordinary life.
- Threat awareness in corporate, public and residential settings
- Personal and family exposure, including digital footprint and routine analysis
- Travel security protocols and pre-travel preparation
- Crisis response: what to do in the first ten minutes
Delivered discreetly and scenario-based, for principals and their households.
Operational Training for Security Personnel
Advanced programmes for corporate security teams, protective details and specialist contractors.
- Close-protection procedure and team coordination
- Situational awareness, counter-surveillance and early threat recognition
- Protective driving and journey-management discipline
- Command, communication and handover under pressure
Hostile Environment Awareness Training (HEAT)
New for 2026.
Preparation for personnel deployed to unstable, high-crime or conflict-affected environments.
- Environmental threat assessment and situational discipline
- Checkpoints, roadblocks and movement in restricted areas
- Communications discipline and check-in procedure
- Incident response, casualty awareness and first aid under constraint
- Detention, abduction and duress awareness
- Evacuation triggers and contingency procedure
HEAT prepares people for hostile environments; the operational deployment itself sits under Travel Security & Protective Support.
Counter-UAS & Drone Threat Awareness
New for 2026.
Uncrewed aircraft have become an ordinary feature of the threat picture around executives, events, industrial sites and sensitive facilities. This programme prepares operators to recognise and respond — it is not a technical or engineering course.
- Drone and micro-UAS threat awareness
- Recognition of suspicious drone activity and hostile reconnaissance patterns
- Counter-UAS risk awareness and operational risk assessment
- Implications for VIP and close-protection operations
- Hostile-environment, event-security and industrial or sensitive-site awareness
- Early-warning concepts and observation discipline
- Reporting procedure and evidence preservation
- Incident response and escalation
- Integration with existing physical-security plans
- Coordination with competent authorities
- Scenario-based exercises
The operating sequence taught is: recognise → assess → protect → report → respond → coordinate.
Atreides delivers operator preparedness. It does not supply detection hardware, and it does not offer radio-frequency interference, jamming or any countermeasure requiring authority Atreides does not hold. Where a client requires technical counter-UAS capability, Atreides coordinates with appropriately authorised specialists.
Operational Self-Protection — Nova Scrimia · Extrema Ratio
New for 2026. Subject to final partnership and credential confirmation.
A specialist training family for security personnel and operators working in hostile or high-risk environments. This is professional operational preparation, not recreational martial arts.
- Operational self-protection and unarmed defensive skills
- Close-range threat management and protective movement
- Disengagement and extraction principles
- Physical control principles for lawful, proportionate intervention
- Hostile-environment survival behaviour
- Edged-weapon threat awareness and defence against edged-weapon threats
- Lawful defensive use and management of edged weapons, where professionally appropriate
- Stress response and decision-making under pressure
- Scenario-based operator training
Training is delivered in person to vetted professional participants. Atreides does not publish technique-level instruction.
Crisis Management & Business Continuity
- Emergency and evacuation procedure for attack, disaster or civil unrest
- Business continuity planning and critical-function mapping
- Crisis-management drills and simulation exercises
- Post-incident review and capability adjustment
