Professional Private Armed Security for Your Peace of Mind

International Security Services, Inc. (ISS) offers specialized Private Armed Security Services for high-profile individuals, businesses, and families throughout New York City. Our elite armed security guards are trained to provide high-level protection in high-risk environments, allowing clients to go about their day with confidence and safety. Whether you require protection for public appearances, residential safety, or secure transport, ISS is committed to delivering effective and discreet security solutions.

Key Challenges in Private Armed Security

Understanding Legal Restrictions and Sensitive Locations

Private armed security involves navigating a complex set of regulations, especially in NYC. Firearms are restricted in many sensitive locations such as government buildings, public transit, and schools. It’s crucial that clients understand that while armed protection offers a high level of security, it is not applicable everywhere. ISS develops adaptive security plans that respect these restrictions and still provide a high level of protection using unarmed agents where required.

Deterring and Responding to Threats

Armed security serves as a strong deterrent to potential threats, offering reassurance to clients facing heightened risks. ISS’s armed guards are trained to detect suspicious behavior, assess situations quickly, and respond effectively if a threat arises. Their presence is intended to prevent incidents before they occur, ensuring the safety of the client and those around them.

Seamless Integration with Client Routines

Our private armed security services are designed to integrate seamlessly into the client’s daily life without unnecessary disruption. Whether attending business meetings, traveling, or spending time at home, our armed guards provide a secure environment while respecting the client’s privacy and lifestyle.

Property Security Evaluation Report

Your Individualized Property Evaluation Report

Your site’s individualized property evaluation report contains information and analysis that you need to properly manage your site’s security needs. That information includes detailed analysis of the crime rate in your area, site access and parking protocols, and existing security infrastructure. Interior inspection includes analysis of emergency exits, fire suppression capabilities, and alarm infrastructure for emergencies. Exterior inspection includes analysis of structural defects, property lighting, and potential vulnerabilities in building access.

In addition to those inspections, our analysis also considered environmental factors, potential risks from older trees, outside property maintenance, and nearby crime that may overflow to the area. We also examined emergency response planning, including fire evacuation protocols and information supplied to residents about proper evacuation process.

 

Pressing Suggestions


We highly suggest a camera placement along this driveway, as the overhead cameras in the back parking lot may not capture all makes, models, and license plates of cars entering in and out based on the angle they are recording from. The best camera placement would be at the green circle closest to the sidewalk/street.
The common area is easily accessible, but based on the angle that cameras are set at the front lot, anyone can enter the basement common area concealing the side of their face that is facing the camera. This is not to say that the camera arrangement should be changed, but it is highly recommended to have coverage in this common area as the common area is on a lower floor not visible from the sidewalk.


However, a few fundamental problems exist when it comes to access control of the back parking (a big territory). Even though only two issues have ever occurred there, the wide-open access point to that lot may need to be corrected sooner than later as there is a significant uptick in crime in the 62nd precinct.

Furthermore, there are two fundamental surveillance blind spots along the driveway leading to the back parking lot and every common area.

Lastly, however unlikely it may seem, tenants should have resources and a physical guide for situations that may require an evacuation. Whether it be a flood or fire, each tenant should know how to use a fire extinguisher and where to evacuate to during a flood regardless of their proximity to a shoreline.
