International Security Association - ISA

ISA founded since the year 1972 to connect unofficially law enforcement, as a private network. Today is a non-profit association with the main mission the upgrade of all lawful forces around the world.

The world is changing every single day. This is the result of the human nature.

This is the result of the human progress.

Unfortunately, crime also changing. Every single day we face a new method/type of crime.

Crimes that 20 years ago was projected only in films, today it is our daily news.

Terror attacks and other terrible crimes that in the past happened only in hostile areas/war zones, today are taking place in our city.

The type of crime now is changed. Governmental authorities hesitating to provide more responsibilities to the private security industry, something which is very good for the criminals. But how to do differently? Who to trust? What is the education of the modern security officer? An empty criminal record doesn't make a good security officer.

Athe the other hand, Law Enforcement will never have enough budget and enough officers to enforce the law the time is needed the most.

The time that a crime it is about to take place. Society needs prevention more than arrests.

Let?s make it more simple: Close your eyes and image the person you care the most in your life. Then someone kills the specific person and then police arrest the person. Is this what you want? Or what you really want is police to stop the crime BEFORE the time it takes place?

Governmental authorities of many countries, still keep the private security industry away from the law enforcement, even if professional security officers they are enforcing security in areas that is possible a serious crime to take place.

Can someone tell us how many crimes are prevented every single day, because a serious and well trained security offider do his/her job properly? Nobody knows.

We saw many YouTube videos with terrorist attacks in malls and commercial centers. Security officers were there, but not yet the Police. This is nothing bad for the police, as police provides their valuable services in many other areas (how many calls they receive every day? How many criminals they arrest every single day? Their contribution to the society? Priceless!!

Do we need police to be everywhere?

Yes, we do. Is it possible this to happen? Not it is NOT possible.

But the security officers are there and they aren't able to stop the crime. Why? Because their role as this is enforced by the existing laws, is "a human alarm system". Nothing more than an intelligent alarm system, with the only duty to call the police.

But until the police arrive, how many people can die by a gunner who decided to "make a point" by spreading death to our wives and children?

Who is responsible for the weakness of the private security industry to provide services that will make the law enforcement more efficient?

Not many countries decided to give serious responsibilities to the security officers.

But even in the countries who did that, they did it in a proper way?

By arming all security officers we resolve the problem? Or we create new problems even more serious?

Our perspective is that first, we must decide that private security industry MUST assist the public safety in the areas/infrastructures of their responsibility, then we need to educate them, to evaluate them, and then to arm them with laws first and legal responsibilities as persons and then maybe is the time to arm them with firearms. This is a very serious issue, that needs a serious approach and if we aren't able to do it properly, we mustn't touch the gun's issue at all.

This is the point of view, we are working and we are open for international cooperations, in order the private security industry to assist crime-stopping by providing more efficient security services, especially to private areas which are open to the public, like Malls, Theaters, Recreation Areas, etc.

ISA in collaboration with the International Security Organization - ISO (ISO-SEC), since the year 2020 initiated the programme of the "2ND CHANCE INSTITUTE", with mission to reduce crime by rehabilitating completely ex convicts, to reduce homelessness and joblessness. We designed a self-efficient governmental programme, that can be applicable in every country.
