About Equitab
Veteran-Founded. Accountability-Obsessed.
Equitab Protective Services was built by a U.S. Army veteran for one reason: too many businesses were stuck with security that didn’t show up, didn’t communicate, and didn’t answer when it mattered. We do the opposite.
Our Story
Why Equitab exists.
Founded by a U.S. military veteran with over a decade in the security industry — including roles at Securitas and Allied Universal — Equitab brings military discipline to private security. That hands-on experience at some of the nation’s largest security firms shaped the way we work today.
Our team carries a combined 15+ years of security, loss-prevention, and operations experience. We assign dedicated officer teams, answer the phone, and treat reliable coverage, direct accountability, and rapid deployment not as slogans, but as how we operate every shift.
