About Black Kyte 17
Who we are
Black Kyte 17 is the specialist security division of WHG, built on the expertise of former UK Special Forces and intelligence professionals. We are trusted by business leaders, governments, and high-net-worth individuals to provide protection in environments where compromise is not an option.
Our operators bring decades of experience in hostile environments, complex operations, and intelligence-led missions. Today, we combine that heritage with advanced digital capabilities to deliver complete protection across physical, cyber, and operational domains.

We provide all-round protection tailored to the highest-risk situations and most demanding clients:
