Corporate Security Companies
Corporate security covers the whole organization, not one building: consistent standards across offices, protection for executives, investigations, and coordination with HR, legal, and IT.
Who does what in a corporate program
| Task | Outside company | Internal security lead | HR, legal, or IT |
|---|---|---|---|
| Set standards | Advises | Owns and approves | Reviews for policy conflicts |
| Guard staffing across sites | Provides and supervises | Sets requirements, audits | None |
| Executive protection | Plans and staffs | Approves scope and travel | Legal reviews any armed coverage |
| Workplace investigations | Gathers facts if retained | Coordinates | HR and legal decide outcomes |
| Terminations with risk | Stands by if requested | Plans | HR leads |
| Physical and cyber overlap | Reports access issues | Coordinates | IT owns systems and logs |
Sample scope-of-work checklist

- One reporting format across sites
- Licensing responsibility in each state
- Who approves armed coverage
- Investigation boundaries and evidence handling
- Confidentiality terms and how records are kept
- Service measures, and what happens if they're missed
Corporate or commercial?
If your concern is one property, the commercial guide fits better. A corporate buyer should expect to deal with several state licensing regimes, because guards are licensed where they work. See how that plays out in California and New York City.
Our access control explainer covers one piece that almost every program shares. If digital risk is the concern, see cyber security services.
