Octaga Security Services

Octaga Security Services is a multi-faceted security services business with a rich heritage and culture. Founded in 2001 as Pilgrims Global Ltd, the company was rebranded to Octaga in 2004 by its Founder and CEO, David Allison. With a background in serving with the Elite 1st Battalion the Parachute Regiment and UK Special Forces 22 SAS, David Allison brought his expertise and experience to the civilian sector, advising, assisting, and carrying out various security roles. From there, the company grew, gaining contracts and trust from large corporations, film, pharmaceutical, banking, and private high-net-worth individuals and family offices.
