SMYRNA, GA, July 22, 2025 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Kenyatta S. McKinnon has been selected for inclusion in Marquis Who's Who. As in all Marquis Who's Who biographical volumes, individuals profiled are selected on the basis of current reference value. Factors such as position, noteworthy accomplishments, visibility, and prominence in a field are all taken into account during the selection process.

As Founder and CEO of Top Security Services, LLC, McKinnon has fundamentally reimagined personal protection for high-net-worth individuals through her proprietary approach known as The Kenyatta Method™. This methodology addresses a critical gap in the security industry: providing robust protection without compromising the lifestyle and dignity of those being protected.

"Traditional security creates barriers between people and their normal lives," explains McKinnon. "Our approach ensures that protection enhances rather than restricts."

McKinnon's innovation lies in her development of Invisible Protection™, a service model that integrates security professionals seamlessly into clients' existing environments. Rather than imposing conspicuous protection details, her team operates as household staff, personal assistants, and other roles that allow for constant vigilance without broadcasting the client's status or disrupting family dynamics.

This methodology proves particularly effective for female executives, royalty, government officials, and high-profile celebrities and media personalities, where traditional male-dominated security teams often create additional complications. McKinnon's predominantly female team addresses sensitive situations with appropriate discretion while maintaining the same level of protection typically reserved for male counterparts.

The development of The Kenyatta Method™ draws from McKinnon's extensive law enforcement background. Her career began in 1997 as a correctional officer with the Georgia Department of Corrections before transitioning to a distinguished 23-year tenure with the Fulton County Sheriff's Office. Rising through the ranks from officer to commander, she developed expertise in threat assessment and crisis intervention that would later inform her private sector innovations.

McKinnon's academic foundation includes a Master's degree in Criminology from Saint Leo University and a Bachelor of Arts in Criminal Justice and Safety Studies from Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University. Her 2024 certification through the Georgia Unified Certification Program further validates her industry expertise.

The transition from public service to private sector leadership represents a strategic evolution rather than a career change. McKinnon identified that high-net-worth individuals required a different approach to security—one that prioritized discretion and lifestyle preservation while maintaining rigorous protection standards.

"Effective security anticipates threats before they materialize," McKinnon notes. "It's about creating an invisible barrier that allows normal life to continue while ensuring safety remains paramount."

Her approach challenges industry conventions by leveraging what she identifies as a woman natural threat detection abilities and de-escalation techniques. This methodology proves particularly effective in environments where traditional security measures might be considered intrusive or inappropriate.

McKinnon's vision extends beyond individual client protection to broader industry transformation. Through strategic positioning and methodology refinement, she aims to establish new standards for how security services are delivered to elite clientele.

The recognition by Marquis Who's Who acknowledges not only McKinnon's career achievements but also her role in advancing the security industry through innovation and specialized expertise. Her work addresses the unique challenges faced by high-profile individuals seeking protection that doesn't compromise their lifestyle or family's quality of life.

As the security industry continues to evolve, McKinnon's contributions represent a significant shift toward more sophisticated, client-centered approaches that prioritize both effectiveness and discretion.
