Securitas AB

STO:SECU B

Securitas AB is one of the world’s largest private security service companies. It protects offices, factories, warehouses, stores, airports, hospitals, and other sites by sending guards, running mobile patrols, monitoring alarms and cameras from a control center, and installing security systems. It also helps customers with fire protection, risk checks, and security advice. Its main customers are businesses and public institutions that need to protect people, property, and operations. Securitas makes money mainly through service contracts for guarding and monitoring, plus fees for security equipment, installation, and ongoing maintenance. In many cases, customers pay for a mix of people and technology delivered as one security package. What makes Securitas different is that it sits between physical security and electronic security. A guard-only company can only watch a site in person, while a pure technology company sells alarms and software. Securitas combines both, which lets it handle simple sites, large complex locations, and centralized monitoring under one contract.
