Question 1

What is TSA ASO Flight Protection and how does it work?

Accepted Answer

TSA ASO (Armed Security Officer) Flight Protection is a federally authorized program that allows certified security professionals to carry firearms aboard commercial and private aircraft. OTJ's ASO agents are TSA-authorized and FAA-compliant, operating undercover to provide discreet, high-level protection for executives, dignitaries, and high-value passengers. Our agents blend seamlessly with other passengers while maintaining constant threat awareness and real-time coordination with federal authorities.

Question 2

How is OTJ Protection different from other security companies?

Accepted Answer

OTJ Protection was founded by a retired NYPD Detective First Grade with over 30 years of law enforcement experience. Unlike companies staffed by private contractors, OTJ's agents are former NYPD professionals with real-world major case experience, federal certifications, and HR218 nationwide carry authorization. We offer a rare combination of TSA ASO flight capability, major case investigation expertise, and executive protection — all under one agency founded on law enforcement integrity.

Question 3

What areas does OTJ Protection serve?

Accepted Answer

OTJ Protection's primary service area covers New York City, Long Island, Westchester County, New Jersey, and Connecticut. For TSA ASO Flight Protection and executive protection details, we operate nationwide across all 50 states under HR218 carry authorization. International engagements are available upon request for high-profile clients.

Question 4

How much does executive protection cost?

Accepted Answer

All OTJ engagements are custom-quoted based on the specific requirements of each client — including threat level, duration, geography, number of principals, and services required.
