We’ve been a longstanding member of the Wisconsin Security Association (WISA), so long, in fact, that it’s undergone a number of name changes since we joined the association. H&S Protection participates in many WISA activities, and over the years we’ve won multiple awards and had members of our team serve the association. This past month,…

H&S Protection has its share of difficulties keeping up with the availability of parts, and we’re changing how we do business to ensure our security installations occur…

Think about this: having a system to train your security team remotely, giving access to all the functions necessary to bone-up on newer technologies. H&S Protection has that system, and it benefits our customers AND staff. Any good training system should help your people get better at their jobs. Simple concept. In turn, as employees…
