About

“We don’t rise to the level of our expectations; we fall to the level of our training.” -Archilochus

We are Chicagoland’s most highly trained close protection security agency. Our expert officers, agents, and analysts are renowned for providing exceptional protection to public officials and figures, high net worth individuals and their families, private organizations, and governments.

The Tactical Security Service Chicago (TSS Chicago) was created by Mark Lasky, a 50+ year veteran in the security industry. Mark recognized the need for a company with higher standards in close protection than the market was offering.  The partners and advisors he brought in, Bryan Javor – Chief Operations Officer, Matthew Beauchamp – Director of Armed Security, and Adam Smith Director of Training & Intelligence, have over 85 years of combined experience in the security and close protection industry. 

Our vision is to deliver peace of mind, and a new level of freedom for humankind, through the implementation of a battle-tested educational curriculum, constant training, and quality assurance, while adhering to the core principles of integrity, freedom, and training .

Our training and intelligence led approach to threat identification, risk mitigation, avoidance tactics, information sharing, and communication effectuates our preeminence. Our attention to detail, quality assurance, processes, and grasp of the highest standards in service delivery underpin our ability to deliver the highest quality services in Chicagoland.
