Hotel Shield Best Practices

Hotel Shield’s paper provides a detailed standard of care, holistic framework for hotels and motels to prevent, detect, and respond to human trafficking within their premises.

The paper outlines a new industry standard of care, organized around three key pillars:

• Solution Stack
• Technology Stack
• Data Layer

These pillars are supported by a 24/7 Security Operations Center (SOC) that enables real-time risk assessment and response. The paper also outlines a vision for new enhanced liability insurance products, planned for release in 2026, to further support compliance and mitigation efforts within the hospitality sector.
