Port security services
When it comes to port security services, ensuring that operations meet your standards for efficiency means prioritizing safety and security – and an approach that is tailored to your requirements.
Our security services are designed to meet the rigorous standards set by Transport Canada, ensuring compliance with all applicable federal regulations while safeguarding the integrity of your operations.


Port safety and terminal security is our priority
We have extensive experience coordinating closely with governmental bodies and adhering to strict security protocols established by Transport Canada. With access to port terminal grounds being strictly controlled, our personnel have all the specialized accreditations, reliability clearances, and authorizations to patrol the entire area.
Our security services for ports include:
Comprehensive access control and perimeter protection, in coordination with the relevant authorities.
Advanced surveillance systems and monitoring of critical infrastructure.
Zodiac patrols around boat perimeters to inspect for hazardous materials.
Visual inspections of containers in transit throughout the terminal.
Rapid response to emergencies and security incidents.
Tailored port security solutions
We understand that every port has different operational challenges. That’s why our security services are designed to integrate seamlessly with your existing protocols and align with standards set by Transport Canada.
Our approach includes:
Full compliance with Marine Transportation Security Regulations (MTSR).
Custom solutions for terminal access, restricted area monitoring, and cargo security.
Protocol-specific reporting and coordination with federal authorities.
Specialized training for security personnel in maritime and port operations.
By working closely with your team, we ensure that our services meet the operational needs of your port while maintaining compliance with all Canadian regulatory frameworks.


Security services for labour dispute management
In the event of port labour disputes, a rapid and effective response is crucial. The GardaWorld Security team controls port access, monitors the perimeter, and protects workers, while preventing acts of vandalism and escalation. Thanks to our close coordination with police forces, we limit disruptions and assure the continuity of operations in an environment that is secure for all parties.
Security services for passenger vessels
Our approach to port security services for cruise ships is built on strict regulatory compliance, rigorous screening procedures, and adaptable security personnel deployment. We process passenger disembarking and provide baggage scanning and security checks to mitigate threats such as terrorism, drug trafficking, and unauthorized access. These measures ensure that both passengers and the port infrastructure remain safe.
Our security team can be scaled as needed, with additional agents deployed on-call during peak cruise season. These agents hold federal security clearances and undergo ISPS (International Ship and Port Facility Security) Code training, ensuring they meet global maritime security standards.
