Paris has a lot of private wealth, embassies and major cultural events in a small area, from the fashion houses of the 8th arrondissement to investor summits at the Palais Brongniart. Blackwolf can have a team in Paris within 24 hours, with executive protection and armoured cars for Paris Fashion Week, art fairs and diplomatic events.
France's national alert plan, Vigipirate, has stayed at a high level in major cities since 2015, so every high-profile visit needs a plan against terrorism. Large crowds at Roland-Garros, the Louvre and the Grand Palais need careful handling, and homes in Neuilly-sur-Seine or the Marais need their own security. Before you land, we check local police rules and how the press behaves at each venue.

Threat picture
Paris at the moderate risk band
Paris sits in the moderate risk band: low baseline of conventional crime against well-protected principals, but specific exposure during high-profile events, peak diplomatic windows and contested business announcements. Our planning isolates these high-exposure windows and applies an enhanced posture only when justified, never as a default theatrical presence.
Our risk briefings draw on public information, what we learned on earlier jobs in the area, and regular contact with trusted local partners. If the risk changes while we protect you, the team is told straight away.
Typical jobs in Paris
