We provide clients with Off-Duty Police officers who carry weapons in a concealed manner and employ special experience and equipment. For example; The license required to carry a concealed weapon in California is unique and mostly unavailable for the majority of armed guards. In certain circumstances it is preferred to have an officer with a concealed weapon on site vs. an exposed guard. Such instances include high-sensitivity locations or sites which are frequently robbed and therefore require a higher level of surveillance and response. An officer who carries his /her weapon concealed may or may not wear uniforms.

Many security services do not require guards to be armed. It is a matter of fact the simply the presence of a uniformed guard may be sufficient in deterring violence. Such services are normally present in high –traffic locations such as shopping malls and supermarkets. The purpose of the uniformed guard is to project authority and secure environment for the shoppers as well as alerting potential criminals that the location is secure.

Armed Guards are extensively trained in the use of firearms and licensed to carry a weapon. While most shopping malls and supermarkets may not necessarily require the presence of an armed guard, many types of businesses perceive armed guards as a necessity. Businesses who deal with items of substantial value such as fine jewelry, antiques, high-volume cash etc normally prefer to employ an armed guard to supervise the safety of their personnel and valuables as well as for escorting those from one location to another.

Body Guards that are trained in the art of executive protection are highly qualified individuals with extensive training and capacity to defend executives and VIPs.

The purpose of the robbery suppression service is simple: Apprehend criminals prior to them conducting future robberies as well as alerting local criminals with our presence as they become aware of the greater chance they take to being caught. Unfortunately, many of the local police departments are dealing with a large case load of pending crimes and are therefore unable to devote the necessary manpower to each and every case. Simultaneously, many of the crimes in wireless stores are conducted by the same criminals and in some cases, their gangs. In fact, while working employing our resources and police expertise, QNS was able to solve several of our clients’ robbery cases in a matter of hours.

A specialized team of two officers visiting client’s locations in order to investigate and gather intelligence immediately post robberies.
