Insurance Programs Built for Security Firms

Key Risks & Why Insurance Matters

Client expectations, detailed post orders, and high-stakes assets mean you’re exposed to contract requirements, regulatory scrutiny, third-party claims, and unique workplace hazards. Your teams face operational exposures ranging from alleged wrongful acts to property damage, injury risks, and cyber threats.

A strong insurance program with coverages like general liability, workers comp, commercial auto, and cyber helps respond to defense costs, settlements, and contract compliance. It keeps operations running, satisfies regulatory filings, and protects your professional reputation when it matters most.

Build the Right Coverage for Your Operation

Every private security operation is unique, so it pays to work with an agent from The Southern Agency who genuinely understands your world. Together, you can shape a plan that covers what matters most to your business, including:
  • General liability for claims of bodily injury, property damage, or personal injury arising at client sites or in the course of guard duties.
  • Workers comp to safeguard your team against jobsite accidents, on-duty altercations, or repetitive strain in static and mobile assignments.
  • Commercial auto to cover fleets and security vehicles—responding to accidents, property damage, and emergency response incidents both on and off patrol.
  • Errors & omissions (E&O) to defend claims from alleged lapses in protocol, misreporting, or any professional oversight tied directly to your services.
  • Property coverage to protect offices, command centers, equipment, surveillance tools, and mobile electronics from theft, vandalism, and disasters.
  • Cyber liability for unauthorized data access, breaches of surveillance records, or client data exposures critical in contract security work.
