What Petrone Risk does

Petrone Risk, LLC is a privately held, founder-led security and risk management consulting firm founded in 2015 and headquartered in Uniondale, New York. The firm advises enterprise clients on DHS SAFETY Act applications, emergency preparedness planning, business continuity, security program development, and audit services, with deep specialization in the federal SAFETY Act regulatory framework. Its primary client base is professional sports venues and leagues (NFL, MLB, NBA, NHL, NASCAR, NCAA), with additional engagements in higher education, healthcare, government, critical infrastructure, and security technology vendors. The firm has assisted more than 20 professional sports teams and approximately 15 security technology vendors in obtaining SAFETY Act protections from the Department of Homeland Security.

The firm operates two proprietary technology platforms alongside its consulting practice. Risk Vault is a 24/7 secure online platform for security program management that includes document infrastructure for SAFETY Act maintenance, AI chat features, task management, and analytics. 'Petrone Risk powered by OnePlan,' launched in January 2024, is a co-branded cloud-based emergency preparedness platform designed for venues. The firm has also built a partner ecosystem (FoxPointe Solutions for cybersecurity, OnePlan for event management, and engagements with Dedrone, InControl, and Accredit Solutions) to extend its service scope.

Petrone Risk generates revenue through professional services on a quote-based, multi-year contract model, with senior managing directors and directors leading custom enterprise engagements. The firm employs 11-50 staff, has no disclosed institutional funding, and is principally U.S.-domestic in its operating footprint, though its technology partnerships extend its reach to international venues including the 2024 Paris Olympics. In July 2026, Petrone Risk itself was granted SAFETY Act acknowledgment from DHS, valid through August 31, 2029.
