Our Security Solutions

Most Used Solution

Unarmed Security Officers

Role and Benefits

Unarmed security officers serve as the first line of defense in your shopping plaza. They patrol the premises, monitor surveillance systems, and engage with customers to foster a welcoming atmosphere. Their presence alone can deter criminal activity and enhance customer confidence.

Training

Our unarmed security officers each holding a BSIS Security Guard Registration, commonly referred to as a “guard card” patrol your shopping plaza, monitor surveillance systems, and engage with customers to create a welcoming environment while deterring crime. Their training emphasizes de-escalation and transparent reporting, plus practical legal knowledge of trespass (California Penal Code 602), shoplifting and merchant detention (California Penal Code 459.5 and California Penal Code 490.5), vandalism (California Penal Code 594), disturbing the peace (California Penal Code 415), and when a private person’s arrest may be appropriate (California Penal Code 837), so incidents are handled lawfully and escalated to law enforcement when needed.

Mobile Patrols

Role and Benefits

Mobile patrols provide flexible security coverage, allowing security personnel to monitor multiple locations within your shopping plaza. This service is especially beneficial for larger plazas where continuous monitoring is crucial. Patrols can respond quickly to incidents, conduct regular checks, and provide a visible deterrent against crime.

Technology Integration

Our mobile patrols utilize advanced technology for real-time reporting and incident tracking, ensuring you are always informed about the security status of your plaza.

Armed Security Officers

Role and Benefits

Armed security officers are an ideal solution for high-risk areas or during events where the potential for conflict may be heightened. Their presence can provide reassurance to both customers and staff, knowing that a trained professional is ready to respond to any threats.

Specialized Training

Our armed officers hold the required BSIS certifications, Security Guard Registration (“guard card”), Exposed Firearm Permit, and, when required by posts, a Baton Permit and train to manage threats using crisis intervention, de-escalation, firearms safety, regular qualification, and practical legal expertise. Instruction covers lawful response to robbery (California Penal Code 211), assault and battery (California Penal Code 240/242), trespass (California Penal Code 602), vandalism (California Penal Code 594), disturbing the peace (California Penal Code 415), and shoplifting/merchant detention when acting for a retailer (California Penal Code 459.5/490.5), as well as when a private person’s arrest may be appropriate (California Penal Code 837). We also emphasize avoiding unlawful brandishing (California Penal Code 417) or negligent discharge (California Penal Code 246.3), with clear radio/reporting protocols, and thorough risk assessment to maintain a safe environment.
