Doing Better Protective Service US

A lot of good information was shared at the Interstate Bridge Replacement Program meeting, and we made a lot of good connections.

Thank you Jefferson High School, Colas construction & Hoffman construction for the event put on today. Great turn out , looking forward to '29 to see the final product.

We attended the groundbreaking event at Jeffery High School in Portland, Oregon. This campus has been long overdue for the much-needed attention it is now receiving.

We visited our Walsh Construction site today. The work is progressing well and is on schedule. Walsh Construction consistently meets their deadlines, and we appreciate their continued trust in us as their security provider. We are one piece of a big picture.

Choosing the Right Security Guarding Company to Partner With
When large enterprises partner with a security provider to provide unarmed guards, they are doing more than just staffing a post, they are placing their brand, culture and risk management strategy on the front line. Across corporate campuses, healthcare systems, distribution centers and national retail environments, unarmed guards serve as the visible stewards of safety, protecting people and assets while projecting a professional, approachable presence. At Protos Security, approximately 80% of our guarding hours are staffed by unarmed officers, with the remaining 20% provided by armed officers, consistent with industry-wide trends.

Without the use of weapons, the effectiveness of unarmed security hinges on the right blend of personnel, training and technology. This is especially critical in large organizations, where consistency, liability management and operational oversight are non-negotiable.

The most effective security companies understand that real security starts with the right people, supported by proper training and modern tools.

Armed vs. Unarmed Security Guards: What’s the Difference?
Security needs vary by environment, risk level and organizational goals, and one of the most common decisions businesses face is whether to deploy unarmed guards, armed guards or off-duty law enforcement. Companies are utilizing third-party tools and crime analytics to evaluate local crime rates, incident severity and trend patterns and to set clear thresholds for escalation. At Protos, we use a proprietary tool to analyze crime statistics from the FBI, Department of Justice and local agencies alongside security hiring trends such as the prevalence of unarmed versus armed job postings. This data-driven approach enables organizations to align protection levels with actual risk while balancing deterrence, cost and liability.

Armed security guards are typically assigned to high-risk environments where the presence of a firearm is necessary due to elevated threats, valuable assets or regulatory requirements. These roles often involve stricter licensing, higher liability and a more enforcement-focused posture.

Unarmed security guards are deployed in workplaces and public-facing environments where visibility, deterrence and communication are the primary objectives. Rather than relying on weapons, unarmed security officers protect people and property through presence, professionalism and situational awareness.

For many organizations, unarmed security is the preferred option because it:

Creates a safer, more approachable environment
Reduces liability and escalation risk
Supports customer service and workplace culture
Provides effective deterrence through visibility and engagement
