Security Company Insurance
Security work has one exposure standard policies quietly exclude: use of force. When a guard restrains or ejects someone and a claim follows, an assault-and-battery exclusion can leave you paying it yourself. We place cover that includes physical intervention, so the everyday reality of the job is actually covered.

What security insurance covers
Liability with use-of-force cover
Crowd control, restraint and ejection are core to the job and a common exclusion. We arrange liability that includes assault and battery / use of force, at the $10m–$20m limits venues and clients require.
Professional indemnity
For claims that you failed to perform a contracted security duty — a missed patrol, a breach that got through. Distinct from public liability, and increasingly named in contracts.
Crowd control, events & static guards
Licensed crowd controllers, event security and static guarding each carry a different risk profile — we place cover that matches the actual work rather than a one-size policy.
Cover, limits and examples shown are general in nature and subject to eligibility, underwriting and the terms of the issued policy.
