About us
‘Make your problem ours’
Founded by Richard Schagen in 2010 and based in South Africa, with operational experience in Sub-Saharan Africa, Assessed Threat Solutions (ATS) has extensive expertise in the overt and covert close protection/ bodyguard field, ranging from governmental protection in high risk environments, to leaders of the business world, as well as the everyday threat situation in the normal working environment. What sets us apart is our ability to operate in this field in a covert manner.
In the investigative/surveillance field we have executed numerous successful operations in both civil and criminal matters.
The surveillance operations carried out have been in the main against crime syndicates, with our ability to carry out specialised urban and rural operations.
