Event Security
Event security starts before the first guest arrives. KDI works from the venue, attendance, access points, prohibited items, VIP needs, and emergency contacts so the host keeps the room and we keep the edges.
CoverageUnarmed Security Officers
Most posts need alert officers, a clean uniform, and a report. Unarmed coverage handles access control, observation, patrol, guest or vendor interaction, documentation, and prompt escalation.
CoverageArmed Security
Armed coverage is a decision, not a default. KDI reviews the environment, credible concerns, client expectations, officer duties, and licensing before recommending an armed posture.
