Protos Security Celebrates National Entrepreneur’s Day

Protos and Security Resources Founders

The Protos team has plenty to celebrate today with four exceptional founders. Two pairs of friends started two competing businesses that joined forces in 2019. Their combined knowledge – and cumulative 85 years of security experience – has led Protos to become a security industry leader with a network of 4,000+ security vendors.

Doing the Basics Brilliantly

A good security program reduces business loss and promotes a safer environment. While many companies recognize that taking basic security measures is a necessity, they may not think about security measures that go beyond the basics – those that identify and proactively mitigate business risk and drive more efficient business performance.
