PSA Security & Consulting

What PSA Security & Consulting does

PSA Security & Consulting Inc. is a private security guard and patrol services provider headquartered at 168 N Ocean Ave, Patchogue, New York, operating across Long Island from the Hamptons to the five boroughs of New York City. Founded in 2008, the company is a licensed, bonded, and fully insured watch guard and patrol agency that delivers on-site security personnel, mobile patrol, surveillance monitoring, and specialized event security to commercial, residential, retail, nightlife, hospitality, and construction clients. The business is founder/owner-operated, with Phil Fogarty referenced as a primary business partner and leadership claiming over 20 years of combined experience in securing and limiting client liability.

The service portfolio combines physical guard staffing with an integrated operational technology stack that includes 24/7 CCTV and remote surveillance monitoring dispatched from headquarters, GPS-tracked marked and unmarked patrol vehicles, guard tour monitoring technology for patrol verification, advanced guest check-in systems with text/email notifications for residential accounts, and aerial drone surveillance used for crowd monitoring, perimeter inspection, and vulnerability identification. Since 2014, PSA has deployed drones at large-scale events and in 2015 established a partnership with the Suffolk County Police Department to relay real-time aerial feeds into event command posts. Guards are licensed in New York State, NYS-certified through the Neary Confidential Investigative Services Training Academy, and drawn from a mix of veterans, former and active law enforcement officers, Coast Guard, and Navy SEAL personnel.

PSA generates revenue through customized service contracts that bundle armed and unarmed guards, patrol vehicles, dedicated site supervisors, and access control into packages priced per guard hours, patrol frequency, and service duration. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; the firm offers free consultations, site-specific risk analyses, and 24/7 dispatch access to prospects and clients. Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales, with each client assigned a dedicated account supervisor, complemented by event-driven engagements (concerts, street festivals, sporting events, private parties) for crowds up to 50,000 attendees. Distribution is reinforced through content marketing on the company blog, organic social presence on Facebook/Instagram/LinkedIn, a newsletter signup, and local networking events hosted by the firm.
