About BHS-US
Built by Operators. Led by Experience.
BHS Intelligence & Protection is an American security advisory firm founded by former Israeli special operations professionals with decades of experience protecting the world's most exposed clients.
Where We Come From
BHS Intelligence & Protection LLC was established in the United States in 2025, bringing to the American market an operational model forged through a decade of Israeli-rooted security operations protecting ultra-high-net-worth families, global corporations, and sensitive organizations across the world's most complex environments. BHS-US operates as a fully independent American entity, carrying forward that legacy of operational excellence under dedicated US leadership.

The People Who Answer for Your Safety

ERIC MARKS

ARIEL KERN
Chief Operating Officer & Co-Founder
Ariel Kern brings a rare operational biography built across multiple militaries, continents, and decades. He began his career as a paratrooper in the German military before serving as a lone soldier in the Israel Defense Forces, where he served through one of the region's most demanding operational periods. What followed was a career spanning private security operations across nearly 100 countries — from the Balkans to active conflict zones globally. As COO of BHS-US, Ariel oversees day-to-day operations, vendor governance, and the delivery of BHS's integrated security model. He is one of the few people in this industry whose operational credibility is measured not in certifications, but in countries.
