Fear may be a strong motivator in uncertain times. Governments can only stretch so far, meaning some people are more than willing to pay private security companies to go the extra mile in protecting their loved ones. Firms operating in crisis zones around the world require protection as well, which has created a need for more vigilant and military-minded security service providers. Sometimes, these companies also assist governments and armed forces, providing highly trained armed personnel and logistical support. It’s a dog-eat-dog world out there, and it’s difficult to put a price tag on peace of mind. Read on for 30 of the most powerful private security companies in the world.

Blackwater was heavily – and controversially – involved in the Iraq War. In 2009 Prince stepped down as CEO, and the firm, by then known as Blackwater Worldwide, was rebranded Xe Services LLC.

Public and private security- For the last decade, the private security industry is the fastest growing business in the world. Many countries are fighting against the crime because radicalization has been the most challenging things to take under control in the country.
The country has a police department to deal with criminal activities but it has extensive pressure for public safety and security with limited resources.

Privates’ security agencies are significantly different than public security because they function on the client’s interest rather than the public. The private security company provides the security services to the clients for the exchange of a fee.
The private security personnel has not granted special power for detention, arrest, search, and seizer similarly the public security officers they have.
