What we do
Private Protection Services
In addition to the deployment of our expertly trained operators, we partner with local businesses and experienced trade professionals to offer wraparound private security services. This helps us support our Southern Oregon small-business economy, while ensuring that no security concern can fall through the cracks. We’re continuously training and always expanding our capability to defend - Contact us to inquire about services not listed here.

Property ProtectionWith individualized access to our security experts 24/7 and 365, you can rest easy.
For far too long, protection details have become lax
Every year, people lose money to ineffective, unprepared, and under-qualified private security details that are, to be frank, hard to take seriously. We are here to usher in a new era of protection for Southern Oregon.
We start by hiring only the highest tier of security professionals and then put them through rigorous training, diving into scenario after scenario. Since our inception, we’ve intentionally built a defense culture of critical thinking, honor, and warrior ethos. This is who makes up our team and your personal protection detail.
Our Commitment to veterans and law enforcement
We believe that those who have already dedicated their lives to public service embody the values we seek to promote. Veterans and past law enforcement officers understand the severity of the risks you are facing and they naturally hold a fondness and passion for protecting their community.
This is why we only hire veterans, law enforcement, and experienced professional security professionals. We will never place your safety in the hands of an inexperienced or ineffective person.
