Our DNA

Founded in 1976, Paragon Security is Ontario’s largest privately owned security company.

50 Years of Standing Guard

For nearly five decades, Paragon has been more than a security company, we’ve been a trusted force protecting people, property, and possibility. As we approach our 50th year, we proudly combine the scale of a major provider with the agility of a true local partner.
As we move into the next 50 years, our promise remains: empower our people, serve our communities, and deliver unmatched security, every step of the way.

Dependability That Sets Us Apart

In a high-turnover industry, Paragon stands out as the only security company that is consistently fully staffed. Our clients don’t worry about missed shifts, because we’ve already made sure the right people are in place.

A Legacy of Growth

We’ve taken an honest look at ourselves, owning our strengths and facing our challenges. That reflection has driven real change. By rethinking accountability and embracing improvement, we’ve become stronger protectors and more committed partners.

Innovation That Leads

We don’t just keep up, we push forward. From advanced technology to smart strategy, our solutions are built to adapt, improve, and stay ahead of risk.

Our Pillars

Fully Staffed, Always

No gaps. No excuses. We stay ahead by finding and preparing people before they’re needed, so every shift is covered with trained, reliable professionals. 
Every post. Every time.

Make It Easy

For clients and guards alike, we simplify the complex. From onboarding to scheduling to reporting, we remove friction so everyone can focus on what matters.

Respond Fast

When issues arise, we don’t wait. We act quickly, communicate clearly, and stay proactive, not reactive.

Build Skills Early and Often

We empower our team with practical, real-world training, right from day one and continuously throughout their career. Growth doesn’t stop after onboarding.

Do It Every Day

Excellence isn’t an event, it’s a habit. We execute consistently, even when no one’s watching. That’s how trust is built.

Diversity, Equity, and

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion at Paragon

Inclusion at Paragon

Each year, we welcome over 4,000 new team members to the Paragon family. They come from every background and walk of life, bringing perspectives that make us stronger. This diversity is not a goal. It is our reality, and it shapes how we grow and connect with the communities we serve.

Inclusion is not a statement at Paragon. It is a responsibility we live every day and has guided how we hire, train, and lead for decades. What matters most is a willingness to work, learn, and show up. When people bring that commitment, we meet them with training that fits. Online, in person, or one on one.

This commitment includes creating access and opportunity, and building respectful relationships with Indigenous peoples and communities. We support awareness of Indigenous histories, cultures, and enduring contributions, and we recognize our shared responsibility to contribute positively to reconciliation.

We are proud of the culture we have built. It is inclusive, equitable, and grounded in action. If you would like to learn more or continue the conversation, please contact our DEI Ambassador, Victor. He looks forward to hearing from you.
