Head of Security deploys professional armed and unarmed security guards for businesses, events, and organizations across Chicago and Illinois. Every deployment is backed by a threat risk assessment and managed through a single point of accountability.
Every deployment is tailored to your specific risks and environment, not a pre-packaged solution.
Most guard companies hand you a warm body and a post order. We start with a threat risk assessment to understand your actual risks before a single guard is deployed.
Every engagement starts with a formal threat and risk assessment. We identify what you need before recommending how many guards to place and where.
One firm coordinates everything. No juggling multiple vendors or contacts when something goes wrong.
Guards are briefed using behavioral indicators, not just post orders. They know what to look for before a situation escalates.
We stay engaged after deployment with performance monitoring, incident reporting, and reassessments as your needs evolve.
For urgent needs we can often deploy within 24 to 48 hours. Planned ongoing programs typically involve a 5 to 7 day setup covering the risk assessment, post orders, and guard selection.
Armed guards carry a licensed firearm and are appropriate for high-risk environments and asset protection. Unarmed guards provide access control and a professional security presence. Our threat risk assessment determines which is right for your situation.
