Investing in Capability: How Integrity Security Strengthens Ireland’s Security Standards

Security today demands far more than a physical presence. Organisations across Ireland require security partners who can assess risk, plan for contingencies, respond to emergencies, and support safe customer and workforce environments across multiple sectors. At Integrity Security, we have built our reputation by delivering integrated security solutions across events, static and site security, retail environments, and corporate settings.

Our focus is on professionalism, preparedness, and continuous improvement because modern security is not reactive, it is strategic.

Integrated Security Solutions Across Sectors

Integrity Security provides specialist personnel and operational support across:

Static & Site Security: Access control, CCTV monitoring, gatehouses, patrols, contractor supervision, incident reporting, and asset protection across commercial sites and construction environments.

Retail Security: Loss prevention, customer safety, conflict de-escalation, theft deterrence, and positive engagement with retail management teams.

Event Security: Crowd management, ingress and egress, ticketing, search lanes, backstage management, VIP and artist areas, media zones, perimeter control, and emergency response.

Corporate Security: Front-of-house protection, visitor management, ID systems, key control, emergency procedures, and compliance reporting across corporate, financial, and mixed-use facilities.

This breadth ensures our clients benefit from a security operation that is not only reliable and compliant, but also adaptable and operationally mature.

Professional Development as a Strategic Priority

To maintain high standards across all sectors, Integrity Security invests significantly in training, development and upskilling. Most recently, we hosted a structured Training & Professional Development Day, bringing together leading experts in emergency management, crisis response, leadership, business growth, and employment law.

The purpose was simple: to strengthen the confidence, competency and coordination of our teams in fast-moving, high-pressure environments.

Learning From Industry Experts

The training day featured sessions from respected specialists across the security, emergency and corporate landscape, including:

Paul G. Cuttle : Emergency Management & Incident Response

Board Member of the Emergency Management Institute Ireland and Fellow of the Institute of Strategic Risk Management, Paul delivered a session on critical incident preparedness, emergency planning, incident roles, unintended consequences, and after-action reviews, concluding with a live scenario-based workshop on incident response at events.

Jim Royan : Major Event Security & Crowd Safety

Former senior police officer and consultant for major international sporting and state events including Operation Unicorn (HM The Queen’s Funeral), The Open

Championship, AIG Women’s Open, the Cycling World Championships and Commonwealth Games 2026. Jim shared best practice in multi-agency coordination, crowd risk, strategic decision-making and operational planning.

Rosemarie Ryan : Leadership & People Management

A leadership and organisational development specialist with over 25 years of experience, Rosemarie delivered an interactive workshop titled Stepping Up, exploring trust, communication, motivation, accountability without blame and leading through change—essential skills for supervisors working in static, retail, corporate, and event settings.

John Brophy : Crisis, Emergency & Business Continuity

Founder member of the Emergency Management Institute Ireland and former Irish Army Officer, John delivered training on crisis planning, contingency development, continuity exercises and resilience, drawing from 30+ years designing training programmes for senior management teams across public and private sectors.

Mike Kershaw : Business Change & Growth in the Events Industry

Former Chairman of The Concerto Group and former President of the UK Chapter of ILEA, Mike discussed industry growth, supplier ecosystems, commercial strategy and the future of the events sector, providing valuable insights into the broader landscape in which security providers operate.

Niall Devitt : Employment Law & Workplace Standards

An Associate at Mason Hayes & Curran, Niall advised on contracts, workplace policies, disciplinary frameworks, grievance procedures, compliance obligations and dispute resolution, reinforcing the legal and regulatory considerations underpinning professional security operations.

Security is a People Industry

Across all sessions, a consistent theme emerged: effective security requires trained people. Security officers, supervisors and managers must be able to:

• assess situations quickly

• communicate clearly

• lead teams confidently

• de-escalate conflict

• understand procedures

• follow compliance standards

• respond to emergencies

• think under pressure

These competencies apply equally whether securing a retail floor, a construction site, a corporate lobby or a major public event.

Raising the Standard for Clients

By investing in capabilities that go beyond traditional guarding models, Integrity Security ensures clients benefit from:

✓ stronger incident response capability 

✓ improved customer and visitor experiences 

✓ enhanced compliance and documentation 

✓ reduced organisational risk 

✓ better coordination with stakeholders and agencies 

✓ higher safety and operational resilience

This is what differentiates a professional security partner from a staffing provider.

Leading Security Forward

As the demands on the industry continue to evolve, Integrity Security remains committed to raising standards, developing talent, and supporting our clients with solutions that reflect modern risk environments.

Whether securing corporate facilities, retail spaces, static sites or large-scale events, our mission remains the same: to deliver security that is prepared, capable and trusted.
