We offer armed security officers that provide maximum threat and crime deterrence. Our commissioned officers are meticulously trained to deal with any situation that may occur on your business or property. To carry a firearm, all licensed commissioned security officers in the State of Texas must pass the Level 3 training course that includes training in firearm safety and includes a range test to ensure firearm proficiency with handguns and shotguns. The course also teaches officers handcuffing, defensive tactics, conflict resolution, officer safety, crime scene protection, laws, regulations, note taking and report writing. Finally, the State of Texas requires all licensed security officers to re-certify every two years to keep up with all new laws and keep their training fresh.

Security Guards that do not carry a firearm are non-commissioned officers.  These officers take the same in-classroom training as commissioned officers but are not required to take the firearm instruction.  This means that they have the same level of training in handcuffing, defensive tactics, conflict resolution, officer safety, crime scene protection, laws, regulations, note taking and report writing as commissioned officers.

We also offer personal protection officers which are commonly referred to as body guards.  Our officers have years of experience protecting high-profile people and keeping them safe is a top priority.  Our personal protection officers require extra training that not only includes the Level 3 Commissioned Security Officer training but also requires Level 4 Personal Protection Officer (PPO) training.
