For decades, private security has largely been associated with corporations, high-profile individuals and those with the financial means or industry connections to access it. At the same time, thousands of experienced security professionals, military veterans, and former law enforcement personnel have valuable skills but limited ways to connect directly with people and businesses who need them.

VELKRA brings those two worlds together.

For companies and private clients

Highly skilled security, accessible to all

Direct access to vetted, experienced security professionals, making high-level protection available to individuals, families and businesses when they need it most.

Built by people who know the industry.

VELKRA wasn't created from a boardroom theory. It was founded from decades of combined experience across military service, law enforcement, investigations, private security, executive protection, risk management and protective operations.

We have seen firsthand how difficult it can be for people to understand where to turn when they need professional protection. We have also seen highly experienced security professionals struggle with inconsistent employment and long periods between contracts. VELKRA was designed to help solve both problems. Our marketplace gives qualified professionals greater control over when and where they work while giving clients a more direct way to find the skills and experience their situation requires.

AlertShield — when safety can't wait

VELKRA's vision goes beyond scheduled security.

AlertShield^TMis being developed as VELKRA's rapid-response safety system, designed for situations where someone feels threatened, unsafe or believes a situation may be escalating.

When activated, AlertShield^TM is designed to connect the user with VELKRA HQ, allowing trained operators to assess the situation while receiving the user's live location and, where enabled, real-time audio and video.

VELKRA HQ can maintain communication with the user and coordinate the response of an available nearby VELKRA professional when appropriate.

The vision is simple: reduce the time between someone realizing they may be in danger and getting professional support.

AlertShield^TM is also being designed with families in mind, creating the potential for a parent or authorized family member to activate assistance when they are concerned about the safety of someone they care about.

It represents where VELKRA is heading — from simply helping people find security to building a connected platform focused on access, awareness, response and prevention.

The VELKRA Foundation.

Our mission extends beyond those who can afford professional security.

The VELKRA Foundation was established around a simple principle:

‍Access to protection should not depend entirely on someone's ability to pay.

‍The VELKRA Foundation will help support vulnerable individuals and families facing situations such as domestic violence, child safety concerns, urgent welfare matters and other genuine safety risks where professional assistance may otherwise be financially out of reach. Where traditional systems may be limited in how early they can intervene, theVELKRA Foundation's focus is on helping provide appropriate, preventative support before a situation has the opportunity to escalate.

Making protection accessible.

Through one modern platform, individuals and businesses can connect with vetted security professionals based on their location, experience, qualifications, availability and the specific requirements of the job. From personal protection and executive security to event security, escorts, welfare and safety support, VELKRA is being built to make finding trusted security professionals easier, faster and more accessible.

VELKRA is being built around three connected goals:

Create opportunity for experienced security professionals, veterans, and former law enforcement personnel.

Make professional security more accessible to individuals, families and businesses.

Help move safety from reaction toward prevention through the VELKRA Foundation and future technology such as AlertShield^TM.

A WORD FROM THE CEO

"Professional protection has always been available to those who could afford it. We saw firsthand what that left behind. VELKRA wasn't created in a boardroom. It was built from decades of real-world experience protecting people, understanding risk and seeing the gap between those who had access to professional security and those who didn’t. We built VELKRA to change that, because access to protection shouldn't be defined by your wealth."

Shane Jorgensen, Founder & CEO, VELKRA
