Who we are

Passion, Determination and Leadership.

Our History

What does CIS stand for?

Founded in 1969 by two former Police Officers, Complete Integrated Solutions (CIS) Security Limited initially operated as a security management and commercial investigation specialist, advising clients on matters relating to best security practice, and providing a loss prevention and investigation service. In 1972, the Company entered the guarding industry.

CIS Security felt that there was a gap in the security market which would benefit from a professional Security company with a strong management support structure, and an independent approach with integrity of service.

Over the years, the Company’s growth has been achieved through a combination of recommendation from existing clients and new opportunities.

Based in London, today CIS is a solid and independently-owned business providing security solutions all across the UK.
