Global Security Group to provide security at Tribeca Film Festival
David S. Katz, the Chief Executive Officer of Global Security Group, Inc., is delighted to announce that our firm has been selected again as the sole security provider for the 2012 Tribeca Film Festival. This marks the third consecutive year that Global Security Group, Inc. has the privilege of serving this iconic event.

The Tribeca Film Festival was founded in 2002 by Jane Rosenthal, Robert De Niro and Craig Hatkoff to help revitalize the economy in lower Manhattan after the attacks on the World Trade Center on 9/11. The TFF has flourished each year and has become one of the most prestigious film festivals in the world. The mission of the film festival is “to enable the international film community and the general public to experience the power of film by redefining the film festival experience.” Global Security Group, Inc. is honored to support the TFF and to have been chosen once again to provide security for this internationally acclaimed event.

Upcoming Training Programs:
Methodology of Executive Protection: Date TBD
This two-day seminar will introduce participants to unique security concepts, up-to-date security methods, modern techniques, sophisticated tactics and state of the art security and safety technologies for establishing or enhancing your executive protection program. This professional course is based on real-life experience and taught by practitioners who managed and directed complex security operations for the US Government, the Israeli General Security Agency and the New York City Police Department.

Executive Travel Safety & Personal Security: Date TBD
This seminar details the measures that must be taken to help ensure the safety of America's executives and corporate employees as they operate in the global marketplace. Business travelers need to be taught the basic security techniques familiar to government operatives but little known in the corporate world.

We're Expanding!
Global Security Group, Inc. has expanded our corporate offices and training center and has moved to a new home within the Sports Plaza Building, where we occupy the entire fourth floor of the building. This space is the home of our Protective/Investigative and Fire/Life Safety Divisions as well as our state-of-the-art training facility. Please see our Services page for a full list of our offerings, including the following:

Tactical Pistol Training/Judgment Shooting using the Meggitt XVT System:
Training will be conducted using Meggitt’s state of the art shooting simulator and is identical to the system currently in use at the FBI/DEA Academy in Quantico, Virginia. Participants will use inert training weapons that have been permanently and irrevocably altered to fire a laser burst detectable only by the system. Our instructors have been certified to provide this training by the United States Department of Justice and provide a level of training not commonly available to the general public. Participants are subject to background screening prior to attending the courses. Private and group sessions available.

Executive Protection Update
Global continues to provide protective services to executives, dignitaries and “A” List celebrities in New York City and around the world. We also offer secure transportation services and maintain a fleet of late model SUVs (armored and unarmored).

In response to the surge in recent threats directed at those in the financial services industry, we are providing comprehensive security and life/safety assessments for individuals working in this targeted sector. In addition, we are also offering on-location safety and security briefings. These presentations detail the basic security measures that executives must follow in order to enhance their own level of personal security. Our instructors can provide a variety of programs from a 45 minute “Executive Safety Briefing” to more comprehensive full and half day sessions. Please contact us for additional information.
