National Protective Service provides BSIS-licensed event security throughout San Francisco, including concerts, festivals, conferences, trade shows, sports events, galas, premieres, and private celebrations.
We tailor armed or unarmed coverage for crowd management, access control and bag checks, backstage and stage security, VIP movements, perimeter and parking control, alcohol-compliance support, and incident response.
Our team partners with your producer, venue, and local authorities to align on plans, radio codes, ingress/egress, and contingencies.
Supervisors run live checks, and you receive time-stamped, photo-rich reports. Scale up for peak hours or special risks without compromising your brand.
Our officers are fully licensed by the California Bureau of Security and Investigative Services (BSIS), trained according to industry standards set by ASIS International, and work in close coordination with the Local Police Department to ensure rapid response and community safety. Whether you require threat deterrence, emergency response, or asset protection, our team delivers professional, discreet, and reliable security solutions tailored to your needs.
BSIS-certified personnel with crowd psychology, de-escalation, CPR/First Aid, and venue procedures.

Armed officers are recommended for higher-risk environments—celebrity/VIP events, high-value product launches, cash-heavy gates, or prior incident history.
Our armed team maintains a calm, guest-appropriate demeanor while providing visible deterrence and rapid escalation control. Strict BSIS compliance, firearms proficiency, and judgment training apply.
Post orders typically cover secure arrival routes, protected zones, cash/transit escorts, robbery/assault response, and law-enforcement coordination.
Use full-time coverage or targeted armed hours during load-out, late-night egress, or VIP arrival windows.
Quick duties: protected entries, high-risk zone coverage, cash escort, emergency coordination, evidence-grade documentation.
Unarmed officers deliver the polished, service-first presence most events require. They guide guests, manage queues, check credentials, monitor barricades and sightlines, support bag policies, and patrol perimeters and lots.
Training emphasizes verbal de-escalation, crowd behavior cues, ADA-aware service, and lost-child/missing-person protocols.
Teams can be scaled for doors-open surges, stage turns, and exit waves—keeping lines moving and incidents minimal.
Quick duties: credential/band checks, bag policy enforcement, barricade/stage watch, aisle & concourse patrols, parking/lot patrols, report writing.
Citywide coverage including Downtown/Financial District, SOMA, Mission Bay, Civic Center, Golden Gate Park, Fort Mason, Presidio, Marina, Union Square, Embarcadero, and Treasure Island, with rapid support to surrounding Bay Area cities.
