V.P.D. Difference 

Why Vigilant Protection Division Stands Out
 

At Vigilant Protection Division (V.P.D.), we believe that highly trained security professionals make the difference between standard security and exceptional protection.

Our philosophy is simple: knowledge is power, and our officers are the company.
