The Blackhawk Standard of Living Deserves an Unparalleled Standard of Security
To live in Blackhawk is to have made a deliberate choice for excellence. It is a choice for breathtaking views of Mount Diablo, for pristine golf fairways, and for a community built on the foundations of privacy, luxury, and security. The very gates that define Blackhawk promise a sanctuary from the outside world.
At Veterans Covert Protection Group (VCPG), we believe in perfecting that promise. We understand that for the notable residents of Blackhawk—the executives, entrepreneurs, professional athletes, and artists—true security is not merely about community-level safety, but about creating a personal bastion of absolute peace and privacy. Our mission is to provide a sophisticated, bespoke layer of protection that operates in seamless harmony with your lifestyle, ensuring your home is not just safe, but a true sanctuary in every sense of the word.
Beyond the Gates: A Deeper Level of Protection
Blackhawk is renowned for its safety, boasting a low crime rate and its own dedicated Police Service provided by the Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Office. This provides an excellent foundation of community-wide security. However, for individuals and families with significant assets, high public profiles, and a paramount need for privacy, the crucial question becomes: Is a shared community resource enough to protect your unique world?
VCPG was founded to address this very need. We provide the dedicated, personal layer of security that a community patrol, by its nature, cannot. We are focused solely on you—your property, your family, and your peace of mind. Our service is the ultimate enhancement to the Blackhawk lifestyle, ensuring your security posture is as exceptional as your address.
The VCPG Mandate: Our Core Principles in Action
Our entire operational philosophy is designed to meet the exacting standards of Blackhawk residents. It is built on three non-negotiable principles.
1. Proactive Intelligence, Not Reactive Alarms Standard security waits for a threat to announce itself. VCPG operates on an intelligence-led, proactive model designed to anticipate and neutralize risks before they ever reach your doorstep. Our team, comprised of seasoned professionals with extensive military and law enforcement backgrounds, possesses a deep understanding of threat assessment, risk mitigation, and crisis management. We analyze local and regional trends, understand the tactics of sophisticated criminals, and apply this knowledge to create a protective strategy that is always one step ahead.
2. Absolute Discretion as a Foundational Value We understand that in Blackhawk, privacy is the ultimate luxury. Our security presence is designed to be felt, not seen. Our agents are masters of blending into the background, conducting their duties with a quiet confidence and professionalism that respects the sanctity of your home and the character of your neighborhood. Whether in professional plainclothes or a formal uniform, they are trained to be a courteous and unobtrusive part of your household environment. Your private life will remain precisely that—private.
3. A True Partnership in Your Security VCPG is not a vendor; we are your trusted security partners. We build long-term relationships founded on trust, communication, and a shared commitment to your safety. Our process begins with a detailed, confidential consultation to fully understand your lifestyle, concerns, and objectives. This is followed by a comprehensive risk assessment of your estate. From this deep understanding, we craft a bespoke security solution that is uniquely yours. This is a dynamic partnership that evolves with your needs, ensuring your protection is always perfectly calibrated to your life.

Dedicated On-Site Security Agents
The heart of our service is the elite VCPG agent assigned to your property. They are more than guards; they are highly-trained protectors and facilitators.
Vigilant Access Control: We provide sophisticated gatehouse and entry point management. This includes the professional greeting and verification of guests, the secure management of deliveries and service vendors, and the coordination with household staff to ensure a seamless and secure flow of traffic onto your property.
Strategic Estate Patrols: For the sprawling properties common in Blackhawk, our agents conduct regular, strategically varied patrols. This active monitoring of perimeters, outbuildings, and access roads serves as a powerful deterrent and ensures a rapid response to any anomaly. Patrols can be conducted on foot or in discreet vehicles to match the environment.
Immediate Incident Response: In the event of an alarm, medical emergency, or any other incident, our on-site agents are your immediate first responders. They are trained in emergency first aid, crisis management, and de-escalation, and can provide critical, real-time intelligence to the Blackhawk Police Service to ensure a priority response.
Advanced Security & Lifestyle Integration
We enhance your existing infrastructure and support your dynamic life.
Technology Synergy: Our agents are proficient in working with the advanced smart home and CCTV systems found in Blackhawk residences. We transform your technology from a passive recording tool into an actively monitored intelligence network, watched by trained professionals.
Vacation & Travel Assurance: We provide comprehensive security for your estate while you are traveling, offering the ultimate "lock-and-leave" peace of mind. This includes regular property checks, mail and package management, and maintaining a secure presence.
Private Event Security: For events hosted at your home, from intimate gatherings to large charity functions, our team provides discreet and professional security. We manage guest lists, secure the venue, and ensure the safety and comfort of all attendees, allowing you to be the perfect host.

Veterans Covert Protection Group provided security for our annual fundraising gala. Totally professional from the moment of our reaching out. Site visit prior to our event. Night of, all three guards arrived early ready to work. They had us express what things we were concerned about, checked out the event layout and set up a group text. The team was on alert and checked in with us regularly throughout the evening. When we need security we call VCPG.

We used VCPG recently for an event we had and couldn't be more pleased. Our guests were walked to their cars and felt safe, and as planners, we felt relief! Their customer service and office are fast and responsive, and the guys that showed up that day were friendly and accommodating. We recommend them for all your event security needs!

Great experience with VCPG regarding parking lot security at a youth Cross Country meet. Staff controlled access to the lot and assured that people parked in designated spaces. They were both professional, timely, friendly and easily identified. The experience with VCPG was outstanding from start to finish of the two events.
