Comprehensive security support for high-risk travel

Problem

A media organisation needing to travel to regions with political instability, geographic and seismic threats, and infrastructure issues wanted to establish what controls should be put in place to ensure the safety of their travellers.

Response

Toro was employed to conduct threat and risk analysis activities, deliver country and venue threat assessments, and provide in-country security assistance using trusted local partners.  Both pre-travel and in-country briefings were provided to ensure that travellers were fully prepared for prior to leaving their home nation.

Outcome

The blended approach offer by Toro was found to be crucial, as the group are now able to use a single provider for all travel safety requirements, with a dedicated contact at Toro to manage assistance.
