Authorisation & certifications
In private security activities, administrative authorisation is not an option: it is a condition of practice. It is also, for our clients and their advisers, proof that they are entrusting their security to a legitimate operator.
Operating authorisation — CNAPS
Authorisation issued by the CNAPS (Conseil national des activités privées de sécurité — the French national council for private security activities) to exercise the private security activities within our scope.
The full authorisation number and its validity date are displayed and verified before each renewal, and updated immediately in the event of any change.
APSAD / NF certifications
Our installations and services follow the CNPP and AFNOR standards, recognised quality marks for insurers and demanding clients.
- APSAD R31 — intrusion / intrusion-detection standard.
- APSAD R81 — video surveillance standard.
- NF-certified services — service-level commitment.
The APSAD / NF certificate and qualification numbers will be published as soon as they are definitively issued.
Compliance that protects everyone
For our clients
Choosing a CNAPS-authorised operator means avoiding illegal services, contractual nullities and insurance gaps: security is only solid if it is in order.
For banks & insurers
The CNAPS authorisation is the number-one compliance artefact checked when opening an account or taking out professional liability insurance for a private security company.
For the authorities
We display, update and justify our authorisations, our professional cards and our training commitments, in line with the regulatory framework.
