Obsidian Security is a Scottsdale-based private security firm serving clients across the Phoenix metropolitan area who understand that incidents, documentation failures, and poorly trained personnel can create exposure long after an incident ends.
Our approach to private security is deliberate, structured, and defensible. Our standards are shaped by real-world law enforcement, military, and luxury hospitality experience.
Obsidian Security is managed by professionals with decades of experience in law enforcement, military operations, and luxury hospitality environments.
Oversight is active, present, and accountable, never theoretical or remote. Supervisory involvement is integral to our operations, ensuring standards are enforced consistently and issues are addressed before they escalate into liabilities.
All Obsidian Security officers complete our custom training program within 90 days of hire, delivered by in-house Arizona DPS-certified instructors.
Training is continuous, documented, and built around real-world incidents, not checkbox compliance or minimum standards. Officers are trained to observe, document, de-escalate, and respond appropriately, with a clear understanding of how their actions impact client risk and liability.
Our systems support:
• Verified patrol activity
• Disciplined incident reporting
• Supervisory review and accountability
This structure creates operational clarity for management and defensible records for ownership, legal counsel, and insurers. Documentation is not an afterthought; it is a core component of risk control.

Professional Security Personnel Built for Risk Control
Obsidian Security delivers highly trained, licensed security personnel tailored to your operational requirements. Our officers are selected for judgment, accountability, and discipline, not just appearance.

Whether deployed in plain clothes or uniform, our personnel support documentation standards, verified patrols, and disciplined incident reporting. Officers are backed by structured supervision and consistent reporting protocols, ensuring professional, guest-appropriate interactions remain accountable and defensible.

Uniformed officers enhance deterrence, but at Obsidian, visibility is only one component of risk control. Our officers are trained to assess situations, document observations with precision, and communicate effectively with guests and team members alike. They are prepared to apply de-escalation and first-aid competencies while producing consistent incident reports and adhering to supervisory review protocols.
In residential communities, security is a risk management function, not just presence. Obsidian Security conducts disciplined perimeter and amenity patrols supported by verified access procedures, structured incident response, and real-time documentation.
Officers coordinate with HOA boards and community leadership to flag safety concerns, document violations, and identify trends that matter for long-term risk control. Our approach balances community engagement with consistent enforcement, clear documentation, and defensible decision-making.
Every officer is trained in First Aid/CPR and equipped to respond effectively while maintaining community standards and reducing overall exposure.
Obsidian Security delivers hospitality-oriented security professionals trained to protect people, operations, and reputations without compromising risk management or documentation standards.

Our officers understand guest interaction, de-escalation, and service-calibrated communication, while maintaining disciplined reporting, verified patrol procedures, and supervisory oversight that protect your operation and reduce exposure.

Whether deployed in plain clothes or uniform, our personnel operate as an extension of your risk management strategy, supporting your team with documented performance, not just presence.
Commercial environments demand more than visibility, they demand strategic alignment with your operational priorities and documented accountability. Obsidian Security builds custom security strategies that include proactive access control, interior and exterior patrol discipline, incident documentation, and supervisory review.
For corporate campuses, mixed-use buildings, or corporate headquarters, our officers act with professionalism and purpose: protecting assets, supporting business continuity, and reducing liability exposure through structured performance.

Dynamic events create increased exposure without rigorous control. Obsidian Security deploys teams led by on-site managers who implement standardized crowd management protocols, documented incident handling, and real-time supervisory oversight.

Our officers are trained to adapt to evolving conditions while maintaining accountability through structured reporting and communication with your leadership or law enforcement partners.

This ensures your event is not only professionally secured but operationally auditable and defensible.
