Our Story
SOCO PRIVATE SECURITY INC. is a California-based private security firm dedicated to delivering professional, technology-driven security solutions built on accountability, responsiveness, and exceptional customer service. Our mission is simple: Protecting Who You Are!® We recognize that every client, facility, employee, and visitor is unique, and we tailor our services to meet each organization’s operational objectives while protecting its people, property, and reputation.
As The New Breed in Security!®, SOCO has built its reputation by challenging traditional perceptions of the security industry. We believe that effective security is not defined solely by a visible presence, but by proactive engagement, sound judgment, professional communication, and meaningful partnerships with the communities and organizations we serve.
Our philosophy begins with a community-first mindset. Security professionals are often the first point of contact for employees, customers, residents, and visitors. Every interaction presents an opportunity to build trust, reinforce safety, and positively represent our clients. We view our officers as ambassadors of both SOCO and the organizations we protect, fostering secure environments through professionalism, courtesy, and proactive problem-solving.
SOCO provides comprehensive security services across a diverse portfolio of industries, including commercial properties, construction projects, educational institutions, healthcare facilities, residential communities, retail environments, industrial operations, special events, executive protection, and mobile patrol services. Whether providing a dedicated on-site officer or managing multi-location security operations, our focus remains the same: delivering consistent, measurable results that reduce risk while supporting our clients’ daily operations.
Technology serves as a force multiplier for our personnel. Our proprietary SmartPatrol® program enhances traditional patrol services through real-time reporting, GPS accountability, digital activity documentation, and proactive incident management. SmartPatrol® provides clients with increased operational transparency while enabling our leadership team to maintain exceptional quality assurance and rapid response capabilities.
Our greatest investment is our people. SOCO recruits individuals who demonstrate professionalism, integrity, and a commitment to service. Through comprehensive onboarding, ongoing education, leadership development, and active supervisory support, we equip our personnel with the knowledge and resources necessary to make sound decisions in dynamic environments. This investment creates confident officers who deliver consistent, high-quality service while representing our clients with professionalism and respect.
Our organizational culture is founded upon four enduring values:
These values are more than guiding principles—they shape every operational decision, every client relationship, and every service we provide.
Headquartered in Sonoma County, California, SOCO PRIVATE SECURITY has expanded its operations while maintaining the personalized service and responsiveness of a boutique security provider. Our team brings experience from private security, military service, law enforcement, emergency response, business management, and customer service, allowing us to approach security from multiple operational perspectives.
We understand that today’s security environment demands more than simply responding to incidents—it requires anticipating risk, maintaining situational awareness, embracing technology, and building trusted partnerships. Our clients rely on us not only for physical security but for dependable communication, operational flexibility, and a commitment to continuous improvement.
At SOCO PRIVATE SECURITY, we measure success not only by incidents prevented, but by the confidence our clients place in us each day. Through professional personnel, innovative technology, and a steadfast commitment to service, we remain dedicated to Protecting Who You Are!®, leading the industry as The New Breed in Security!®, and delivering security solutions that strengthen the communities we proudly serve.
