Armed and Unarmed Security Guards
Our armed and unarmed security guard services are trained to deter and prevent crimes and secure property through constant vigilance, monitoring, patrolling, and access control.
Principles of De-Escalation
Our security guards are trained in communication skills that avoid and diffuse conflict situations. If there is no justification to use force, our security guards will engage in actions that de-escalate and prevent confrontations. This will ensure that our guards do not engage in behaviors that escalate conflict and result in the use of force while performing their duties.
