Direct peers

• Allied Universal: Largest US manned security services provider, offering security officers, remote monitoring, and AI-enabled surveillance across multiple verticals. Directly comparable to ProGuard in core service mix (guarded services + technology-augmented monitoring) and customer base (CRE, healthcare, government), but at vastly greater national scale.
• Inter-Con Security: US-based manned security provider with strong West Coast and California presence, serving commercial, residential, government, and education clients. Most directly comparable mid-sized peer to ProGuard in geographic footprint, vertical mix, and officer-driven delivery model.
• DSI Security Services: US-based regional security guard and monitoring services provider with multi-state coverage across government, commercial, and industrial clients. Comparable to ProGuard in being a mid-sized, officer-led security services firm with technology-augmented monitoring, though geographically headquartered outside California.
• St. Moritz Security Services: Mid-sized US security services firm providing uniformed officers, mobile patrol, and monitoring across multiple verticals. Directly comparable to ProGuard in service mix (officers + patrol + monitoring) and target customer base (commercial, residential, government).

Broad incumbents

• Securitas: Global security services leader with US operations in manned guarding, mobile patrol, and remote monitoring. Comparable to ProGuard in service portfolio but operates globally with far broader resources and enterprise client coverage.
• GardaWorld: Canadian-founded global security and cash services firm with US security services operations. Overlaps ProGuard in manned guarding and protective services but is materially larger and vertically integrated into armored transport and risk consulting.
• Prosegur: Spanish-headquartered global security group with significant US security services operations. Comparable across guarding, monitoring, and integrated security solutions but operates across many more geographies and service lines than ProGuard.
• ISS A/S: Global facility services provider with security services as part of a broader workplace and property operations portfolio. Overlaps ProGuard's commercial real estate and government guarding while also delivering adjacent soft-services contracts.
• Brink's: Global cash logistics and security solutions company with US security services and digital retail solutions units. Comparable in security services offering but anchored by its dominant cash-in-transit / armored car franchise rather than officer-based guarding.
