Hiring armed security officers with certified training in active shooter situations can be appropriate in situations where there is a higher level of security risk or a need for an escalated level of protection. Some scenarios where hiring armed security guards may be warranted are public gatherings, schools, high-value asset protection, high-security facilities, executive or VIP protection, event security for high-risk situations, or security in areas with high crime rates.

When considering hiring armed security guards, it is essential to comply with local laws and regulations regarding armed security personnel. AmGuard will conduct a thorough, free risk assessment of your business to determine the most suitable security solution that aligns with your specific security needs and the level of threat you face.

Unarmed security officers can be the best option for many low-risk environments. If your business primarily requires access control, visitor management, and customer service assistance, unarmed security officers can fulfill these roles effectively. They can check identification, monitor entry and exit points, and assist customers with inquiries or directions. 

Other scenarios where unarmed officers are often employed include event management, crowd control, and surveillance and monitoring.
