About Us

Securitas is the most locally-focused security company in the United States, with over 650 local Branch Managers and more than 90,000 Security Officers who provide unmatched security solutions to meet the specific needs of thousands of businesses. Securitas USA's core business is Security Services. Our main service offering categories are specialized guarding, mobile security services, monitoring, and consulting and investigations.

We hire people from all walks of life with a variety of distinctive skills and perspectives united with a common purpose - "To help protect homes, workplaces and communities by providing the security needed to help protect their assets and safeguard their people." Integrity, Vigilance, and Helpfulness, represented by the three dots on our logo, are qualities our employees are proud to demonstrate daily.
All business is local, which is why we've developed our organization laterally. By establishing many independent, local units, we've created a strong base for the entire organization, one that is flexible and customer-oriented. Placing resources in the field, at the local level where they can be used most effectively, is part of Securitas USA's effort as the industry leader to add value by being closer to our clients and to our security officers.

When people think of contract security services, they usually picture a traditional security officer making patrol rounds or controlling access at a fixed post. These functions remain crucial to security at many locations, but we are able to offer, through affiliated companies and specialty divisions, a much broader range of security solutions that can add significant value to client organizations.

Our security services can be customized and combined to meet the security requirements of any organization. We work closely with each client, listening carefully and applying our expertise to offer a security solution that meets the client's needs.
