Government Security

A security guard, security officer, or protective agent is a private person who is paid to protect an organization’s assets (property, people, money, etc.) from a variety of hazards (such as waste, damaged property, unsafe worker behavior, criminal activity, etc.) by utilizing preventative measures. They do this by maintaining a high-visibility presence to deter illegal and inappropriate actions, observing (either directly, through patrols, or by watching alarm systems or video cameras) for signs of crime, fire or disorder; then taking action to minimize damage (example: warning and escorting trespassers off property) and reporting any incidents to their client and emergency services as appropriate. Their international (at least in the United States of America and Canada) symbol of brotherhood is The Thin Green Line.[1][2] Security officers are generally uniformed to represent their lawful authority on private property.
