Our Vision - We are committed to providing innovative security solutions and promoting the highest level of integrity and reliability from our employees. 

Our Mission - To ensure the clients' complete satisfaction and confidence in our products and services

Our History - In 1980, retired Detective Sergeant Mr. Paul Fields formed Safeguard to provide quality security services to a broad base of businesses in Bermuda. Safeguard then merged with International Security & Investigations Limited (formed in 1998 by Carlton C. Crockwell Sr.) and the two companies became Safeguard International Services. In April of 2010 Safeguard International Services and Bermuda Security Group formed an alliance, creating Security Associates and taking Bermuda's security industry to full strength.
