Risk Assessment
Each event carries an element of risk that needs to be factored into the organizer’s plan. A security site assessment, or physical risk assessment, is an evaluation conducted by a security expert that includes actionable recommendations on how to safeguard the site and prevent risk. Not only is safety important for guests, it’s also important to cover yourself against any potential liabilities.
Uniformed Security Guards
Events ebb and flow and there’s always a small element of chaos involved on the day. A uniformed security guard is your frontline defense against crowd incidents, gate crashers, or anyone causing trouble within the event. Our uniformed security guards are experts at diffusing challenging situations thanks to their customer service training and security experience.
Mobile Patrol Security
If you’re running an outdoor event, our mobile patrol security team will ensure the integrity of your perimeter and prevent anyone from gatecrashing. Our event team follow pre-arranged routes on a randomized schedule in highly visible security vehicles. They’re flexible, they’re efficient, and they’re cost-effective.
