Securiguard was established in 1974 when Stanley Kernaghan established a Security Division of World Investigation to serve the mining industry. Stanley’s son, Darcy headed the new company as its original President. Darcy had learned the workings of the security industry assisting his father’s Vancouver-based companies, Kernaghan Adjusters and World Investigation Service.
Darcy is committed to advancing the security industry and has served as Regional Vice President for Canada in the American Society for Industrial Security, the world’s largest security management organization. He has also been an active member of numerous advisory boards and committees overseeing the advancement of standards and policies governing the security industry in North America.
Over 30 years later, Darcy remains the company's President and Chief Executive Officer and, from Securiguard’s corporate offices in downtown Vancouver, directs the key activities of a staff numbering over 1200 and the operations of the company which now extend through Western Canada and as far as Abu Dhabi.
Along with the expansion of the company came a growth in our reputation and service capabilities and today, Securiguard Services remains at the forefront of many security initiatives keeping pace with technological advancements and evolving demands of both local and global challenges.
With many awards of distinction for service and innovation, Securiguard continues to pursue improvements and enhancements that keep us on the leading edge of security innovation. At the same time, we pride ourselves on our tradition of professionalism and customer service at every level from our control centre operators, guards, mobile patrol to our account managers, protection specialists and executive team.
