There are a number of uses for security services such as providing safety, protection, and security. You may need long term security or even short time security for events. There are two types of security service to choose from: armed security officers or unarmed. Depending on the nature of your security needs will determine whether or not to use an armed or unarmed security service. Advanced Private Investigator & Security of Miami, FL will share the best uses for armed and unarmed security.

Armed Security

The need for an armed detail depends on the nature of the event or security needs. Many security officers hold a license to carry a firearm for high risk security needs. Armed security acts as a great deterrent to crimes and unruly behavior around a property or at a special event. Additionally, armed security can provide more control. The visual presence of an armed security obtains a much higher degree of respect and authority than an unarmed security. If an event or atmosphere of an event may provoke aggression or violence, an armed security officer can stop and prevent major negative altercations.

Armed Security Bodyguards

If a home or individual is under threat or considered a high target individual, an armed security may become essential. Armed security officers can better provide protection under most circumstances. For a person under threat they wouldn’t just want to rely on an unarmed security. If you or an event is considered to be a medium or high risk, you will want to utilize an armed security service. Another additional consideration is if your insurance allows for armed security. Each insurance company will vary. If you’re hiring for personal protection, or if you need security for an event or regular security of a business or property, make sure your insurance will allow armed security.

Unarmed Security

Unarmed security is a popular choice for venues that considered as a low level threat. Unarmed security officers also provide security without adding unneeded concerns or excitement. Some popular places for unarmed security are for places or property such as traffic control, schools, parking lot security, or surveillance. If a construction property houses expensive equipment or materials, and you want an overnight babysitter to ward off or prevent theft, in most cases the presence of an unarmed security officer is enough.

Unarmed Security to Prevent Theft

Unarmed security officers are also good for those who plan to go out for an expensive night and are wearing fine jewelry or expensive accessories. You may feel the need for extra protection to help deter any potential theft. Often trouble is invited when fine wear is seen and advertised. In most cases having a security officer(s) is enough to prevent theft. The presence is often enough to deter most potential problems. However, there are times when the threat level is higher.

Security when Travelling Abroad

For those who want extra security while traveling out of country, unarmed or armed security is still an option. Depending on where you’re visiting and the current threat that may occur in other countries, will help you determine which security you require. It is important to do your homework or ask your security company which level of security may be needed.
