Security Consulting in Los Angeles
Make smarter, faster security decisions with a Los Angeles–focused security consultation program.
National Protective Service helps property owners, HOAs, retail chains, schools, healthcare, studios, and corporate campuses reduce risk and spend efficiently—aligning plans with LAPD/LAFD, California Fire Code, Cal/OSHA, and your Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ).
From threat and vulnerability assessments to guard-force optimization, technology design (CCTV, access control, LPR, VMS), CPTED improvements, post-orders/SOPs, and incident playbooks—we deliver clear, budget-aware recommendations you can implement immediately. Our consultants produce executive summaries for stakeholders and detailed action roadmaps for facilities and security teams.
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.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a Los Angeles security consultant do?
Walks your site, reviews access points, lighting, cameras and procedures, studies local crime patterns, and delivers a written risk report with fixes ranked by impact and cost.
How much of the report costs money to act on?
About half the gaps found in a typical assessment are procedural and cost nothing to close. The report separates those from capital spend so a budget conversation is possible.
Does consulting commit me to guard coverage?
No. Many LA clients start with an assessment and then decide what coverage, if any, is warranted. The two can run under one agreement if you want them to.
What is CPTED?
Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design — using lighting, sightlines, landscaping and layout to reduce opportunity, often the cheapest lever on an LA property.
Who carries out the assessment?
A licensed professional. National Protective Service holds California PPO licence 120545, verifiable on the BSIS registry, and aligns its methodology with ASIS International standards.
