  • We recently recognized four dedicated professionals in the Dallas region with appreciation cards for their contributions to our clients' success. These cards carry messages like 'Glad You’re on the Team' and 'You Make a Difference,' and we truly mean it. New team member Officer Devante Green hit the ground running, recently assisting in the apprehension of individuals involved in an on-site theft. His proactive mindset and ambitions are already delivering elite results. Similarly, Officer Darnisha Daniels showed incredible heart and professionalism during a medical emergency. She provided critical support and secured the site until paramedics arrived, ensuring her teammate was never alone. In leadership, Site Manager Eddy Mbungkah has been a transformative force since March 2025. By focusing on staff morale and operational efficiency, he has achieved record-low overtime while earning the highest level of client trust. To cap it all off, we hosted a celebratory lunch for our team at a major manufacturing site in Irving to personally thank professionals like Sophia Brown (photographed with Account Manager Nathaniel Stampley) for their continued reliability. Our Dallas team continues to prove that exceptional service comes from exceptional people. #Security #SecurityCompany #SecurityTeam #DallasSecurity #TeamAppreciation #TexasSecurity #Dallas #DallasBusiness Sunstates Security

  • Success at Sunstates Security is driven by the individuals who show up every day with a commitment to excellence. Today, we are proud to celebrate the hard work and professional growth of three team members from our St. Louis team. When a client specifically requests an award for an officer, it speaks volumes. With eight years of expertise, Ashley Bishop secures our client’s headquarters with unwavering professionalism. From managing high-traffic entrances to 24/7 patrols, the client praises her "superb" handling of complex tasks. Thank you, Ashley, for being a trusted partner!

  • Our regional quarterly supervisor meetings are a cornerstone of our communication and team support strategy, uniting leadership from across our sites to share insights, success stories, and emerging industry trends that help us stay ahead of evolving security needs. While each region focuses on local site needs, these gatherings also serve as a vital platform for rolling out company-wide initiatives, such as the 2026 benefits updates. This ensures our supervisors return to the field equipped with the knowledge needed to keep their teams informed, empowered, and supported with the tools they need to succeed. Here are a few snapshots from our latest quarterly meetings. We are proud of our team's collective drive to keep learning, growing, and leading the way. #Security #SecurityTeam #SecurityServices #SecurityCompany #TeamSupport #Communication

  • In the Denver region, our officers recently demonstrated that "Security" is about much more than a uniform, it’s about vigilance, compassion, and decisive actions.  A Life-Saving Response: When an OTR driver lost consciousness and crashed into a site gate, Lead Officer Jeff Davis didn’t hesitate. He immediately initiated CPR and coordinated with 911 dispatch. We have since received confirmation that Officer Davis’s heroic actions directly saved the driver’s life. Officer Davis, your leadership and respect for others make us incredibly proud to have you on the team. Preventing Critical Failure: Just moments before his shift ended at a medical center, Officer Mason Phippen conducted one final patrol. In the basement boiler room, he discovered a failing oxygen pump running on its backup motor, an issue that threatened patient care and facility safety. Officer Phippen’s attention to detail ensured a rapid solution with the engineering team before an incident could occur. Photographed with Officer Phippen is Site Supervisor Greg O'Malley. Join us in celebrating Officer Davis and Phippen for their incredible actions! #Security #SecurityNews #SecurityTeam #SecurityServices #Denver #DenverBusiness #Colorado #ColoradoBusiness
