Golden West Security – Industry Leader In Security Services

Golden West Security Officers are highly trained Professionals in the Security Industry. In addition to the forty hours of continued education mandated by BSIS (Bureau of Security and Investigative Services), Golden West Security officers receive training on a bi-monthly basis. Patrol officers and standing guards are managed by highly experienced Watch Commanders, an important feature that sets our services apart from other security companies. We manage everything through our sophisticated, fully-staffed command center which operates 24/7, 365 days a year.
