"As educators, our passion is for the students. Safety and security aren't our expertise. Having someone like Defend Systems to come in and contour a plan for our school was really important for us. They were practical, hands-on, and very clear in empowering our staff to feel prepared." - Brian Sweatt, Lighthouse Christian School

Learn how to protect the most precious gift a parent can receive,
their children.

Faculty and staff charged with the education and development of our youth don't have the luxury of an "everyone for themselves" approach to an active shooter event or any other critical incident that may occur on school grounds. They have been entrusted with the most precious gift a parent can receive, our children. This fact makes the entire approach to securing our schools and responding to an emergency event extremely unique and challenging.

That's where we come in. With nearly two decades of experience circumventing security measures and things designed to keep people out, we have the expertise to assist in designing systems that work. We have planned and conducted over one thousand high-risk tactical operations where the goal was to penetrate the structure and control and detain the persons on the inside as quickly and as safely as possible. This gives us amazing insight as to what real physical security looks like because we have the first-hand experience in defeating a multitude of security measures.

    How Do We Work?

    Our first step will be conducting a complete and thorough threat assessment and site survey where we will identify the strengths and weaknesses of your buildings, campus grounds, prior training, and faculty and staff. We will then compile a complete and detailed training program based on those findings which will include identified weaknesses, recommended improvements, and suggested protocols to be implemented.

    We remain with you every step of the way overseeing improvements and training the staff and faculty on all recommended protocols that are specific to your classrooms, student composition, building design, and campus layout. We also acknowledge the inherent and unfortunate fact that acts of terror are on the rise and constantly evolving to further threaten our security, as a result, we recommend and offer annual in-service training.

    “Their training was very clear, practical, and understandable.”

    "I highly recommend any business, school, church or private home to have Defend Systems do a walkthrough to see how you can improve the safety of your employees, congregation, or family.

    Brink walked through our church facility to see how we can keep our homeschool students safe during our one-day-per-week program. Then, he gave the tutors training with practical strategies on how to prevent and respond to an active shooter situation."

    Karina Hammer, Bellevue Home School Enrichment & Tutorials

    "As the director of an early childhood program, health and safety is a high priority, especially given America’s gun violence epidemic. We are grateful for the work of Brink Fidler and Defend Systems. They assessed our existing emergency plan and gave us thoughtful recommendations for security upgrades."

    Cindy Ligon, McKendree United Methodist Church

    "Defend Systems was an amazing resource to our school, Holy Trinity Montessori, as we built and designed our new campus. They are extremely knowledgeable in their expertise of safety, school trauma, and emergency awareness. In this day and age, schools must live in a very different time of awareness and safety, and having Defend Systems as a resource has been invaluable.

    As we designed our new campus, we looked at all issues of intrusion, school shooting, and school emergencies. The team at Defend Systems was able to advise us on this journey as seen in our design process with the architecture firm. I would recommend Defend Systems and their expertise in any emergency situation consulting. We have enjoyed working with them and look forward to working with them in the future."

    Kate Riley, Holy Trinity Montessori

    "Defend Systems has been invaluable to our organization. They helped us identify security issues and consulted with us on how to create and implement (if ever necessary) an emergency plan that keeps everyone as safe as possible. When we began planning our move to our current facility, they helped us by identifying areas that needed to be more secure and suggested ways to make it happen. They not only consulted with us but also provided training for staff members."
