Chemical and Petrochemical Security

Because your security program deserves flexibility

The chemical and petrochemical industry is highly regulated, which is why it’s important to work with a security provider who is educated on best practices and has dedicated resources available. There are strict federal guidelines that this industry faces to protect facilities from threats such as terrorism or natural disasters. These regulations require facilities to comply with extensive security measures to protect their assets and employees, which is easier said than done.

Protos has extensive experience in providing security services for the chemical and petrochemical industry. We can work with you to understand and comply with industry regulations. Our team of experts is capable of creating facility-specific security plans and can help assess the level of threats and vulnerabilities for maximum safety. We combine highly skilled security personnel with state-of-the-art technologies to deliver successful solutions to our customers. Whether your program is long- or short-term, all Protos clients receive access to our client portal, a dedicated service agent, and our 24/7 security operations service center.

Software Enabled Solutions

Protos realized that the security industry was not adopting modern standards and technology. We have been innovating and transforming the industry ever since. We were the first to offer a complete security management dashboard for managing a manned security program. Using any internet-connected device, our clients can view real-time information as well as a data archives for valuable long-term analysis.

And through Protos Labs, our technology division, we are continuing to develop industry leading software to increase operational oversight for our clients.
