What IVRI, Istituti di Vigilanza Riuniti d'Italia does

Sicuritalia (legal name SICURITALIA S.p.A., historically IVRI, Istituti di Vigilanza Riuniti d'Italia) is an Italian private security services provider founded in 1956, with legal headquarters in Como and operations spanning the entire Italian territory. The company employs approximately 377 staff and operates with €10 million registered share capital. It delivers an integrated portfolio of physical and digital security solutions across four customer segments: residential households (Privati), shops and offices (Negozi e Uffici), enterprises of all sizes (Aziende), and public administration entities (Pubblica Amministrazione).

The core offering combines the Protezione24 product family — an alarm and video surveillance platform offered in residential (Casa), commercial (Professional), and personal (Persona) variants — with traditional manned guarding services (armed and unarmed), security systems engineering and installation, risk and security consulting, cybersecurity, facility management, and a virtual reception service. A web-based management platform enables real-time interaction between the company and its customers, and online configurators and quote calculators support self-serve residential lead capture. Specialized guarding teams are deployed in regulated environments including airports and railway stations.

Sicuritalia monetizes through a mix of professional services (guarding, risk consulting, facility management), subscription and recurring revenue (alarm monitoring, cybersecurity), and managed-services contracts delivered through direct field sales to enterprises and via public-procurement framework agreements for government clients. Go-to-market is segmented: direct enterprise and PA sales teams, plus self-serve online channels for residential and SMB buyers. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The company is privately held as an Italian S.p.A. with no disclosed parent company, institutional investors, funding history, or M&A activity in the available data.
