- Campaign events with political candidates or speakers

Factors to consider in hiring armed or unarmed security services
Armed and unarmed guard services in Wisconsin both aim to protect against crime, violence, or damage, but offer distinct levels of service against different security risks. Deciding which type to hire requires careful consideration of several factors of your location or event:
- Primary goals of hiring security. All security services offer protection. Whether to use armed or unarmed security depends on what you most need to protect: money, rare artwork, jewels, and other valuables, the location or building your event takes place—or the life and safety of individual people or groups.
- Budget. Armed services offer advanced protection levels but cost more money in both hourly rates and potential insurance premiums. Unarmed security costs less but may not cover all the security measures you require. Weighing these factors against what you can afford to spend is crucial.
- Experience. Whether employing unarmed or armed security services, using guards with sufficient experience with your situation is always advantageous. Your security staff should have real-world familiarity with advanced-risk events.
- Training and certification. Armed guards require more in-depth education and certified training—those who achieve official rank may even have college degrees in their field. All guards must go through an FBI background check before obtaining a license from the State of Wisconsin. As part of our ongoing certification process, our guards must also go through ongoing background checks and drug testing.
- Risk and liability exposure. By nature of their position and the arms they carry, armed security officers entail more risk than unarmed ones. Liability exposure is minimized with unarmed guards. Again, the nature of your situation and what you’re guarding dictates what level of risk aversion you can take on.
Benefits of hiring armed or unarmed guard services in Wisconsin
Certain security guards are right for specific situations, depending on what you’re protecting and the kind of security presence you want to project:
- Armed guards -Armed guards make for a more formidable presence at your event. Their fortified appearance can immediately discourage the thought of any criminal or life-threatening acts. Armed guards are also more experienced in risky situations and have the proper authority and knowledge to resort to forceful measures. They’re fully trained in how and when to deploy firearms and supply the deepest level of security in high-profile public events or VIP transport.
- Unarmed guards -Often, the mere appearance of any security detail is enough to deter unwanted activity, and unarmed security offers that level of protection without the unnecessary risk of liability, intimidation, or personal injury. It’s easier to approach an unarmed guard in a situation with reduced risk, as they can appear friendlier and more open to offering assistance. Unarmed guards are often all the protection one may need against non-threatening activities like shoplifting, vandalism, loitering, or trespassing in places like retail outlets or residential complexes.
