The security landscape has changed. Over the past two years, executives, high-profile families, and companies have seen a sharp rise in threats — and protection that once felt optional now looks like a basic precaution.
The Numbers Behind the Shift
Forty-two percent of corporate security chiefs report a significant rise in threats of violence against executives over the past two years. Nearly 34% of S&P 500 companies now disclose executive security spending, up 28% year-over-year and 47% since 2021, and one in four companies now provides personal security for its CEO — nearly double the rate of two years ago.
Median spending on executive security reached $95,000–$106,000 per executive in 2024, up roughly 120% since 2021. The global executive protection market is on pace to grow from $24.8 billion today to $41.6 billion by 2035, as boards increasingly treat safety as a fiduciary responsibility rather than a discretionary expense.
It's Not Just for the Fortune 500
While headlines focus on corporate executives, the same forces — public visibility, social media exposure, and family wealth — are pushing private families, athletes, entertainers, and ministries to take protection seriously long before a threat becomes real.
