Overview

Securitas profits from the lack of caritas in human nature. The world's #1 security services firm provides security guards to banks, retailers, large corporations, small businesses, and residential customers in more than 40 countries, mainly in North America and Europe. Securitas' purchase of US security firms Pinkerton's and Burns International Services gave Securitas a dominant position in the US security-guard services market. Securitas operates through three divisions. Its security guard operations include Security Services Europe and Security Services North America, while additional security services are handled through Mobile and Monitoring.
