What We Do

How do you secure your home, school, or business in a world with a growing abundance of threats and security challenges? There are countless products and services being promoted to answer them – yet, how can you tell which solution is right for you? Especially if you’re on a budget? Phillips Security Consulting helps you through these difficult – and even lifesaving – decisions, decisions that can affect your home, family, business or community.

Phillips Security Consulting acts as an honest and objective security consultant in sorting through your choices – we are committed strictly to your needs, not to selling you products or solutions you don’t need. We provide a third party review and analysis of all the factors that impact your personal, home or business security and crisis plans, including your current security safeguards, crisis management tools, escape routes, environmental/Hazardous Materials issues, crisis communication systems, background checks for home, business, or neighborhood survey and risk analysis for moving or business relocation, and more.

Phillips Security Consulting helps you pick a security/crisis plan and products that fit your budget. Better yet, the solutions we help you define may amortize themselves by reducing insurance costs by working with your insurance carrier to find you the best discount for the plans that you implement, and researching other options and vendors to help pay for the costs of your security measures.
