What is DII Security Safeguard Insurance?

Security firms face unique risks every day. From protecting their clients to safeguarding their business, it's crucial to have the right insurance coverage in place. That's where Security Safeguard comes in. Our specialized insurance package is designed to provide comprehensive coverage for security guard firms.

Importance of Insurance Coverage

As a security firm, insurance coverage is crucial. It can protect your business from the financial consequences of claims, property damage, or employee injuries that may arise in the course of security operations. Without insurance coverage, a single incident could cause significant financial damage to your business, potentially leading to bankruptcy. In the worst-case scenario, it could even force you to close your doors permanently.

What is DII Security Safeguard Insurance?

Security Safeguard is an insurance program designed specifically for security firms. It provides coverage against any financial risks associated with liability claims, property damage, or employee injuries that may arise in the course of security operations. The policy covers the costs of legal defense, settlements, and judgments.

Diversified Insurance Industries (DII) understands that security firms have unique needs and challenges. The Security Safeguard insurance program is designed to address these specialized needs. It provides coverage for premises security companies, transport drivers, specialized equipment, loss control, private investigation firms, and alarm firms.

Benefits of DII Security Safeguard Insurance:

2. Peace of Mind: Knowing that you have insurance coverage can give you peace of mind. It helps you focus on your security operations without worrying about unexpected costs that may arise from unforeseen risks.
