Quiet strength.

Proven protection.

AAO Global Protection Services was founded on a simple principle: the world’s most influential individuals deserve protection that is as intelligent and intentional as the lives they lead.

What began as a tightly focused operation, created to support a high-profile figure navigating personal and professional threats, quickly grew through word of mouth. Trusted by a circle of clients, AAO evolved into a premier private security firm, called upon by industry leaders, public figures, and families operating at the highest levels of visibility and risk.

Security For Those Who Can’t Risk Compromise


Our personnel are hand-selected not only for their elite operational backgrounds, but for their discretion, discipline, and command presence.

Our team’s combat readiness is shaped by intensive training in Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and boxing, supported by a relentless commitment to ongoing development. This includes live scenario threat simulations, firearms proficiency, close-quarters engagement, and protective tactics under stress — ensuring that when the unexpected happens, we don’t hesitate. We act.


Leadership with Integrity


Mark Thompson, Founder and Director of AAO Global Protection Services, has spent over 20 years in the field of executive protection. His background spans private security contracting and high-risk protective assignments for clients operating at the highest levels of visibility.

Known for his direct approach and unmatched loyalty to those he serves, Mark remains personally involved in assessing every new inquiry. He is intentionally selective — driven not by scale, but by mission-critical need.
