No security measure will prevent people from finding and killing them.

The only way to maintain the safety of executives who get paid arbitrarily large sums for no discernably unique work is to fully anonymize their position, and make their wealth utterly invisible. But to do this means abandoning each pyramid-climber's prestige, and also their conspicuous consumption.

For as long as individuals of the executive class are identifiable, they are vulnerable.
