The company's core technology consists of a proprietary "Green Reporting System" that captures security data from officers in the field and provides clients with real-time access to reports, trends, and operational information, alongside Marksman Security University (MSU), an internal digital training and leadership development platform built on the INTELLUM learning management system. Marksman's revenue is generated through contracted security officer staffing on an hourly or weekly basis, with customized pricing tailored to client scope, geography, and service requirements under multi-year enterprise contracts.

In September 2024, Marksman announced a strategic merger with Titan Security Group, and in January 2026 it acquired Priebe Security Services, both for undisclosed amounts, extending its national footprint and service capabilities. The company reports operational scale of 250+ million square feet of commercial space serviced weekly, 10,000+ residential units, 100,000+ weekly residential staffing hours, 60,000+ weekly government staffing hours, and experience serving 75 Fortune 500 companies, positioning it as one of the larger non-publicly-traded players in the U.S. contract security industry.
