Do not take our word for it.

Florida maintains a public database of licensed security agencies, investigators and training schools. Search it for “Security Alliance” and compare what you find against the numbers above.

We suggest you do the same for every provider on your shortlist. A license number that cannot be found, or that belongs to a different entity than the one signing your contract, is the cheapest disqualifier available to you.

  • Check the license class matches the work. A Security Agency license does not authorise investigations, and an investigation license does not authorise guard services. We hold both.
  • Check the entity name matches the contract. The license should be held by the company that will sign, invoice and staff the work.
  • Check officer-level licensing. Florida officers hold a Class D license; armed officers additionally hold a Class G.

Standards

What licensing does not cover.

A license is the floor, not the standard. These are the things we do above it.

Screening beyond the statute

02

Training we control

A Florida-licensed Security Officer School, DS2700029, with curricula written in house. Post-specific and client-specific training does not wait on a third-party vendor's calendar.

03

Insurance and indemnity

General liability and workers' compensation coverage, with a certificate of insurance naming your entity as additional insured issued as part of contracting. A sample certificate is available during evaluation.

04

Professional membership

Member of ASIS International, the professional body for security management, and an Equal Opportunity Employer.

All three are searchable in the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services public license database.

How can I verify these licenses myself?

Search the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services private security license database for "Security Alliance" and check the numbers against the ones on this page. We would rather you verified than took our word for it - and the same applies to any provider you are considering.

Are your officers individually licensed?

What screening do officers pass before assignment?

Do you carry insurance, and can I see the certificate?

Are you licensed outside Florida?
