Born from law enforcement and refined for the private sector, Whitestar Group’s Security Division provides the highest level of service available in the industry today. We specialize in public and private sector site protection as well as innovative security solutions for more complex and high-profile accounts.
The saying is old, but still applicable even now, “the customer is always right.” Whitestar Protection Group adheres to this philosophy. The security industry is a competitive market with companies opening and closing as sure as the sun rises and sets. In order to meet the stringent demands of managing personnel and client relations, Whitestar Protection Group follows a strict set of principles.
- HIRING the best management team to ensure the best personnel are recruited, hired and supervised.
- EMPLOYEE RETENTION is our second most important goal. In an industry where guard services are considered a transition job by many, we believe that providing competitive wages, benefits and a good working environment decreases the turnover and allows us to retain experienced workers.
- TRAINING our employees in de-escalation and Trauma Informed Care techniques assists in reducing liability exposure and creates a well-rounded guard. “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.”
Armed Security
Whitestar Group is the largest employer of armed security personnel in the North Bay. We provide specially trained armed personnel for special events, stationary details, Close Protection Assignments and any other assignment where armed officers are requested. We are currently providing armed security services to the Sonoma County Sheriff’s Department for in-custody inmates when they are obtaining medical care at any North Bay area hospital.
What truly sets Whitestar Protection Group apart from other security providers is that we utilize retired law enforcement trainers to ensure our armed officers receive advanced training above what is required by the Bureau of Security and Investigative Services. They also receive training in site awareness, risk mitigation, advanced de-escalation techniques, cuffing procedures, and defensive tactics.
“Our firm has worked extensively with Whitestar Group. We’ve always been pleased with the quality of work done by Mark and his employees and especially pleased with the prompt turnaround time on assignments. Mark has been creative as well as mindful of costs on our cases. I highly recommend Whitestar.”
