Regulating patrols and processes without micromanaging your security team

If anyone thinks robots will be replacing human security guards in the near future, these numbers may quickly change their minds. Private security officers now outnumber public police officers in more than 40 countries, reports The Guardian. In the United States, there are roughly 800,000 police officers, but well over 1 million private security officers. Employment is projected to grow about 3% from now until 2029, which is comparable to several other occupations.

Private guards patrol shopping malls, gated communities, condo buildings, schools, hospitals, casinos, and so much more. Different clients will have different needs and expectations, but no matter who you’re working for, your team will be expected to keep property and people safe.
