Newark Security Guard Company
Licensed security officers, 24/7 remote monitoring, and emergency response for businesses across Newark and North Jersey.
Security Guarding for Newark and New Jersey Businesses
Prosegur Security is a licensed Newark security guard company serving commercial clients across North and Central New Jersey. Our branch operates from Academy Street in downtown Newark, minutes from Port Newark-Elizabeth and Newark Liberty International Airport, and that proximity shapes the account mix: air cargo and freight forwarding, marine terminal operations, and the warehouse belt running from the Meadowlands through Middlesex County. Officers are SORA-certified and scheduled from this office.
Newark security services include on-site security guards, front desk and concierge coverage, remote video monitoring, integrated access control and surveillance systems, 24/7 emergency response, and enterprise cybersecurity. New Jersey's other defining industry runs through the pharmaceutical and life sciences corridor in Rahway, Summit, Bridgewater, and New Brunswick, where credentialing discipline and controlled-area access matter more than officer headcount. Many sites across both sectors run a hybrid program, pairing a lean on-site presence with remote monitoring to hold overnight and perimeter coverage without staffing every post.
We serve Essex, Hudson, Union, Bergen, Passaic, Morris, Middlesex, Somerset, Monmouth, and Mercer counties, including Jersey City, Elizabeth, Hoboken, Bayonne, Kearny, Secaucus, Paterson, Clifton, Hackensack, East Rutherford, Parsippany, Morristown, Rahway, Edison, and New Brunswick.
Why Businesses in New Jersey Trust Prosegur to Be Their Security Service Provider
Local Security Backed by Global Resources
Drawing on deep local knowledge and backed by Prosegur's global resources, our Newark-based team delivers responsive, reliable security across North and Central New Jersey.
Rapid Response When It Matters Most
With officers on the ground and 24/7 supervision from our Academy Street office, we deliver proactive coverage and fast incident response across North Jersey.
Data-Driven Risk Management
Security for us goes beyond posting officers. Our analytics-driven approach helps you uncover, understand, and address risks before they become threats.
Scalable Solutions for Any Industry
Port and marine terminal operations, air cargo and freight forwarding, warehouse and distribution facilities, pharmaceutical and life sciences campuses, and corporate headquarters across North Jersey each need security that scales with operations. We build programs around those requirements.
Available Security Services and Solutions In New Jersey
Prosegur delivers customized security solutions for businesses in Newark and across New Jersey, offering dependable protection and 24/7 responsive local support for every site.
Licensed Security Guarding
Our licensed security officers are trained to deliver a strong presence, exceptional service, and quick incident response. Supporting port and marine terminal operations at Port Newark-Elizabeth, air cargo and freight forwarding around Newark Liberty, warehouse and distribution sites across the Meadowlands, corporate offices, universities, and medical centers, they adapt to your facility's environment and security challenges.
Global Risk Services
For businesses operating in Newark and beyond, our Global Risk Services team delivers intelligence-led support spanning travel risk management, threat monitoring, crisis response planning, and supply chain risk assessments. For clients moving freight through Port Newark and Newark Liberty, that often extends to visibility across cargo and personnel in transit.
Security Systems Installation & Integration
Working from our Academy Street office, we design and install modern security systems integrating video surveillance, access control, and intrusion detection. Whether an upgrade or a new build, each installation is configured for your environment, across single sites and multi-location portfolios.
Remote Security Monitoring
Our Remote Security Monitoring program brings together video surveillance, access control, and intrusion detection under the watch of trained agents in our Security Operations Center. Using AI-driven analytics and live video, we monitor, verify, and resolve threats in real time. For terminal yards, warehouse docks, and truck gates, it holds coverage on ground that would otherwise need a post at every entrance.
Emergency Response
When the unexpected happens, you need a team ready to step in. Our National Contingency Services division delivers rapid-response security during emergencies, strikes, and civil unrest. In North Jersey that also means nor'easters and coastal flooding, where sites lose power and access control at the same time. When a location needs more officers than a branch can surge alone, we deploy from our nationwide network.
Enterprise Cybersecurity
We deliver enterprise cybersecurity for Newark businesses, covering threat monitoring, endpoint protection, vulnerability assessments, and incident response. For North Jersey's pharmaceutical and logistics clients, that includes supporting the compliance requirements those sectors carry.

Frequently Asked Questions
Prosegur provides a full range of commercial security guard services for Newark businesses, including uniformed security officers, front desk and concierge security, access control support, event security, remote monitoring, and integrated security technology. Each Newark security program is built around the site, its risk profile, and how the property is actually used.
Newark businesses choose Prosegur for a local team backed by a global security organization. Our officers are scheduled and supervised from our Academy Street office in downtown Newark rather than a regional hub, and we pair professional guarding with remote monitoring and security technology so a program can scale without adding headcount at every post.
Yes. New Jersey licenses private security at the state level through the Security Officer Registration Act, and Prosegur holds a New Jersey agency license with SORA-certified officers. Training covers emergency response, customer service, report writing, access control, and de-escalation, along with site-specific procedures for the property being protected.
Remote Security Monitoring combines live video surveillance, real-time audio intervention, and 24/7 oversight by trained agents in our Security Operations Center. For Newark businesses it extends coverage overnight and across multi-site portfolios, delivering faster incident response at lower cost than a guard-only model.
Yes. Many North Jersey properties run a hybrid program that pairs on-site officers with remote video monitoring. It works particularly well for warehouse and distribution facilities across the Meadowlands and Middlesex County, port and terminal operations in Newark and Elizabeth, corporate campuses, and office properties in Jersey City and Hoboken that need continuous coverage without staffing every post around the clock.
Our Newark team secures port, air cargo, and logistics operations, warehouse and distribution facilities, pharmaceutical and life sciences campuses, financial institutions and corporate headquarters, healthcare systems and medical centers, data centers, universities and research campuses, commercial real estate and residential properties, and event venues and stadiums.
