Our ESS Entertainment Services Story
ESS was born in the hills and neighborhoods of Beverly Hills, where privacy and protection are a way of life. What began as a trusted provider of residential and estate security for Hollywood’s elite and high net worth families quickly expanded into global assignments for luxury brands and private clients traveling the world. As our reputation grew, the entertainment industry took notice. Producers, studios, and event organizers began calling on us for the same caliber of service we brought to private estates. Today, entertainment security has become the heartbeat of our company, more than half of what we do, blending our heritage of protection with the excitement, creativity, and energy of Hollywood itself. Every project we take on is handled with precision, professionalism, and a commitment to excellence worthy of the spotlight.
