Professional protection. Built around the assignment.

For Jaime Salanga, security is a professional discipline built on peace of mind, discretion, and the conditions that allow people to move freely and with confidence. He approaches protection as work that is earned quietly, through precision, loyalty, and readiness.

With more than 15 years of experience, Jaime leads Draken Security and provides confidential protection and executive transport for high-profile clients across the United States and abroad. Having once been part of the Beverly Hills talent community, he understands the responsibility that comes with public exposure, business ownership, and remaining effective under pressure.

Jaime’s work includes cyber investigations, computer forensics, and risk management for high-profile events. He works directly with estate managers, hotel security directors, corporate leaders, and public figures to design protection strategies that are proactive, adaptive, and discreet — assessing risk, closing gaps, and building a safer environment for the people and assets that matter most.
