Mark Hjelle, CEO of Protos Security, was recently quoted in a USA Today article highlighting the often-overlooked role security officers play in protecting people, properties and communities.
The article provides insight into how security officers are frequently among the first people on-site during emergencies, requiring constant vigilance, situational awareness and the ability to respond quickly when threats arise.
“Security officers can be invisible until the moment it matters most,” said Mark. “You’re staying vigilant for the one moment when someone’s coming into a building, and that’s a very difficult thing to do.”
As CEO of Protos Security, Mark focuses on delivering scalable, software-enabled security solutions across industries. His perspective reinforces the critical role security professionals play in prevention, preparedness and response.
