Enhancing School Safety: Why Privatizing School Security is Crucial for Our Nation’s Future With police departments stretched thin and struggling with manpower, the lack of sufficient School Resource Officers (SROs) in schools has created a single point of failure, jeopardizing the safety of our children. Too often, schools are left with just one SRO or unarmed security personnel who simply can't respond effectively to an active assailant. Relying on local law enforcement's response time in an emergency could mean precious minutes lost, which is unacceptable when every second counts. By privatizing school security, we can bridge this gap and implement a higher level of protection and preparedness. A professional security company specializing in school safety can provide a team of trained security officers who are equipped, armed, and ready to respond to high-stakes situations. Unlike traditional SROs who have a broad focus, private security officers are trained specifically to identify threats, de-escalate conflicts, and, if necessary, stop active assailants to ensure that students and staff are protected. Our children deserve better than a single line of defense; they deserve a robust and responsive security team with proven expertise. Privatized security doesn’t replace law enforcement but complements it, allowing faster response times and round-the-clock monitoring with a team dedicated solely to the safety of our schools. By investing in a professional security company, we’re investing in the future of our nation—creating a school environment where students can learn safely and thrive.

Protecting People Is Our Greatest Honor – Choose EGS Security Solutions for Expert Protection in Northern Virginia At EGS Security Solutions, we believe that being hired to protect people is among the greatest honors a security company can have. It’s not about just putting a uniformed guard in place and collecting a fee – true protection goes much deeper. We educate our clients on the various security services available and the critical distinctions between armed and unarmed security officers. These differences go beyond appearance; they involve varying levels of responsibilities, legal requirements, and equipment. Making the right choice can be the most important decision you make for the safety of your business, property, or event. Our team often recommends armed security as the best option to preserve life from threats. Why? Because our armed officers come with the training, equipment, and expertise needed to stop an active assailant if the situation arises. It’s not a matter of if it will happen but when. Are you prepared? A trained, capable security guard could be the difference between life and death during a critical incident. The decision to hire a security company should not just be about meeting a basic requirement or "the budget" but about ensuring your protection is handled by the very best in the field. Ask yourself this question: how much would you spend to save yourself, employees, and family members from a maniac looking to harm whoever is in their path? Beyond armed security, consider what other services your security company can offer. At EGS, we go further with investigative services, background checks, and security assessments to strengthen your security posture. We can help you vet new staff, contractors, or vendors to ensure that everyone who has access to your property meets the highest standards. This is especially crucial for protecting vulnerable groups, such as children in schools or churches. Our comprehensive approach ensures that you are not just hiring a guard, but a full-scale security solution.

The Importance of Security and Access Control for Apartments and Private Communities Ensuring the safety and peace of mind of residents is paramount in apartment complexes and private communities. Security and access control systems play a crucial role in protecting properties, reducing crime, and fostering a sense of trust within the community. An effective access control system ensures that only authorized individuals can enter the premises, safeguarding against unauthorized access, potential theft, and vandalism. From gated entry systems to 24/7 security patrols, having a comprehensive security solution in place deters criminals and provides a visible security presence, which is a proven crime deterrent. For residents, knowing that their community has robust security measures like surveillance cameras, trained security guards, and keycard or mobile access control creates a sense of comfort and confidence. It also enhances property value, making apartments and gated communities more attractive to prospective residents who prioritize safety. If you're a property manager or community leader, investing in professional security services and modern access control systems is a critical step in protecting your property and residents. Don’t leave security to chance—ensuring the right solutions are in place can prevent potential security issues and enhance the quality of life for everyone in your community.

Protection is Blind – A Call to Professionalism in the Security Industry In the security industry, protection knows no boundaries—it's blind to political affiliations, personal beliefs, and opinions. As professionals in this field, our responsibility transcends any personal viewpoints we may hold. When tasked with protecting people, property, or organizations, we must deliver the same high level of service, no matter who our clients are or what they stand for. As Americans in the industry, we need to understand that our role is to serve and protect, not to bring personal politics or bias into the equation. We may not always agree with policies or the beliefs of those we protect, but our commitment to safety must remain unwavering. Our professionalism is measured by our ability to set aside differences and focus on the mission, ensuring safety, security, and peace of mind. This industry thrives on trust, and trust is built when clients know that no matter their background or position, they can rely on us to remain impartial and deliver the best service possible. As we continue to grow in this profession, remember that protection is blind, and professionalism should always lead the way. This photo was taken in 2016 in Guatemala.

How Your Ego is Putting Lives at Risk in Security In the security profession, bringing your ego to the job can lead to dangerous mistakes and compromise the safety of others. Confidence is key, but overconfidence can cloud judgment, escalate situations unnecessarily, and distract you from the ultimate goal—protecting lives and property. Leave the ego at the gym and focus on what truly matters: professionalism, clear-headed decision-making, and team collaboration. I am passionate about teaching my Communication/De-escalation & Disengagement Training for Security Professionals EGS Security Solutions; more companies should want to put their security officers through this type of training, not just an online module. We learn from class interaction and open discussion about real-world experiences. Most problems can be solved with proper communication and trained professionals seeking solutions. Do not put a stain on the industry by allowing your EGO to leave the gym. Let's all become better communicators and straighten our soft skills so we do not need to utilize our hard skills. Save the hard skills for the true criminals looking to take life, and let's not add to or become the problem. #Securityprofessioanl #savelives #protector #Security #Executiveprotection #veteranowned #EGSSECURITYSOLUTIONS #COMMUNICATION

Before choosing a security provider, avoid these 5 costly mistakes: Don't Judge by Name or Longevity – A long-standing reputation doesn't guarantee quality or fit for your needs. Beware of Low Prices – Cheap services often mean compromised security. Prioritize quality. Avoid Untrained Guards – Unprofessional officers can jeopardize safety, so choose appropriately trained professionals. Unarmed Security Is a False Sense of Safety – Protect lives and assets with fully equipped personnel. Cameras Alone Aren't Enough – Technology should support, not replace, physical security.

Being invited to the 25th Anniversary of the Diversified Protection Corporation Leadership Conference was an honor. I want to thank my mentor, Wes Sturdivant, for his wisdom, knowledge, and invitation. I also want to thank Mr. Nate White and Henry Wolfe for making us feel like a part of the family and for their genuine care in developing leaders. Mr. White has created a company in an industry that many would say is "just a job," but from an outsider seeing the progression of his upper management, those who started as "just a security officer" have risen through the ranks with hard work, critical thinking skills and communication; this has shown joining Diversified Protection Corporation is not "just a job" it is a career and you will advance if you put yourself on the journey to become the best version that you can be to support a mission greater than yourself. Thank you to all the speakers who attended the conference who shared their wisdom and power of communication. Tim Pecoraro As a young business, EGS Security Solutions has listened to and seen what can be accomplished within an industry with many challenges. I strive for many accomplishments for EGS Security Solutions, starting with the team we build to drive the vision that God created forward. Protect Life and property and mitigate risks.
