ESS Global Corp, a leader in security services in over 60 countries, provides professional Tampa Bay Security Guards in Tampa, Clearwater, St. Petersburg and the surrounding area for commercial, government, educational and non-profit entities.
At ESS Global, our Tampa Bay Security Guards are trained for the two required Florida security guard licenses (D,G) at our own school here at ESS and it’s the only security school in the state of Florida that is certified and approved by the Florida Department of Education.
Because it is.
Celebrities – Celebrities are well known, and sometimes they are not liked by everyone. Worse, it may not just be individuals that hate, but they may be “over-liked” by zealous fans as well.
There are many reasons why you may be looking for bodyguards in Tampa, or anywhere here in Florida. 

ESS Global personnel go through exhaustive executive protection training such as high risk defensive driving, logistical and travel planning, crisis management, emergency coordination, threat assessment, hand to hand combat, first aid and other disciplines that provide you with the safety and comfort you deserve.
International Protection – Sure, we love to work in Florida, it’s our backyard. So we know the lay of the land with regards to Executive Protection, Celebrity Security and Bodyguard Service in Florida. But it’s important to note that with international security projects in over 50 countries, the “global” in ESS Global Corporation is “global security” for real. If you are headed out of the country, we are prepared to keep you safe every step of the way.
Choosing The Best– Fact: ESS Global Corporation also runs a Close Protection School. ESS Global Corp is the only Protection School in the state of Florida that is licensed and approved by the Department of Education. This is a well-known fact in the security business. So the best candidates know where to go to get world-class training. And we get to see those agents every day during training, offering positions to the best of the best in each and every class, providing a consistent level of quality, awareness and skills that other security companies never attain because they never know the agent’s skill set until they are out in the field. In the Close Protection industry, that can be dangerous.
Celebrity Bodyguards– ESS has protected celebrities, athletes, public speakers and individuals from all walks of life across the US and throughout the world. So whether it’s the red carpet in Los Angeles, a venue in Las Vegas, a business meeting in Chicago, a concert in Detroit, a promotional event in Dallas, a speaking engagement in Orlando, or a photo op in Tampa, we have you covered.
In most every state, there is no oversight of the Executive Protection Industry. No licenses, no state certifications.
Now, the requirements to enter the Executive Protection industry would be much easier if it were classified under the class D License, but at the same time, what types of individuals would now, by law, qualify to do Executive Protection work?
“Which defensive tactics work best?” This is a question that defensive tactics experts and bodyguard instructors have debated and continue to debate. But, in reality, the answer is simple. I don’t care what defensive tactics or martial arts discipline you train in or feel that you have mastered, because the answer is always the same. ALL experienced executive protection agents will agree that the best defensive tactic we have as agents, that will give us the greatest chance of survival and least chance of injury to us or our clients, is AVOIDANCE.
