We are a privately held, US-based security contractor with a strong focus on people, performance and accountability — and a strong commitment to building long-term relationships with our customers.

We were founded in 1967 by Tennessee state representative Roger Murray, Jr. with a progressive mission: to raise the bar in the security industry by providing officers with the professional development and management support they need to deliver the highest possible performance and integrity on the job.

Today, Murray Guard is one of the largest independently held security firms in the nation. Headquartered in Jackson, Tennessee, with more than 4000 employees, we serve clients in industry, nonprofit, education, government and other sectors through branches in 13 southeastern states and Puerto Rico.
