How to protect the privacy of an UHNWI household
In today's interconnected world, ensuring the safety and security of your family extends far beyond the physical realm.
At Exclusive Household Cavalry (EHC), our heritage is built on trust, discretion, and an unwavering protection of an UHNWI’s privacy, property, and peace of mind. This encompasses crucial aspects of personal privacy, cyber security, and the rigorous vetting of household staff.
A home is a sanctuary, and the information and individuals within it are deeply personal. In this blog, we'll explore these vital layers of protection, offering insights into how you can safeguard privacy in the digital age.
The invisible threat

Safeguarding an UHNWI household extends beyond physical security to the realm of cyber threats.
Employing trustworthy staff is paramount, but so too is equipping them to be a strong first line of defense against human vulnerabilities and digital risks.
This includes comprehensive training on recognising phishing attempts, understanding the importance of secure password practices, and adhering to strict protocols for handling sensitive information.
Maintain personal privacy
Beyond cyber threats, actively managing a family's personal privacy in everyday life is essential. This involves being mindful of the information shared and who it’s shared with.
Social media awareness is crucial; be mindful of what is shared on social media platforms, as public profiles can reveal a surprising amount, such as location and other sensitive information. Consider adjusting privacy settings and be selective about what is posted, and set guidelines in place for household staff.
You may also want to consider putting robust Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) in place to legally protect your privacy and confidential data, ensuring these agreements are clearly understood and consistently adhered to by all.
The importance of vetting staff

Entrusting individuals with access to a UHNWI home and its occupants demands the absolute highest level of confidence and security. The peace of mind of UHNWI families relies on knowing that everyone within their household is not only exceptionally capable but also thoroughly vetted and consistently acts with the utmost discretion and integrity.
At EHC, a rigorous and meticulous vetting process for all staff is a non-negotiable cornerstone of security in UHNWI environments. We will act as your dedicated partners in this crucial process, ensuring that every candidate we present to you has already undergone a meticulous process, eliminating the burden and worry for you.
This includes thorough background checks, in-depth reference checks, verification of right to work, and where appropriate, and personality assessments to identify whether the individual's traits and their overall suitability for the specific role within your household.
