Not Just Guards — Executive Security Management for Communities That Expect More


Most security companies send uniforms. We deliver leadership. We design, manage, and oversee your entire security program so your Board, GM, or CAM never has to babysit guards, chase reports, or worry about liability.

Here's what makes us different:

Executive-Level Oversight, Not Vendor Staffing

You’re not hiring a guard company — you’re partnering with a security director. Every program is led by a 27-year executive in security management, not a scheduling clerk in a call center.

Hospitality-Trained Security Ambassadors

Our personnel are trained in hospitality, customer service, and property reputation — not intimidation. They greet residents by name, de-escalate with professionalism, and protect your image as much as your assets.

We Protect More Than Property — We Protect You From Liability & Complaints

Poorly trained guards create resident complaints, incident reports, lawsuits, and bad reviews. We design security programs that prevent those problems, document everything, and give your Board peace of mind.

No Oversight Required From You or Your Staff

We handle scheduling, training, standards, reports, performance reviews, and resident complaints. Your team gets the results — without the headaches.

Your Security Should Be an Asset — Not Another Problem to Manage.

Security Expertise Backed by Published Work

David J. Mathena isn’t just operating in the security industry — he helps shape it.
He has authored several books used by security professionals across the country on topics like guard management, leadership, and building accountable security programs.


For property managers and HOAs, his book Luxury Property Security bridges the gap between security operations and real-world property concerns — covering liability, resident expectations, contractor oversight, and how to keep security from becoming a public relations problem.


 Why this matters to you:
You’re not hiring someone who just supplies guards. You’re hiring someone who trains the industry and understands how security affects your residents, reputation, and bottom line.
