"A new application allowing direct communication between private
customers and security guards is currently under beta testing in Paris, Lyon,
Marseille and Cannes," announces Mr. Patrick Senior, the CEO of this new
company called GettGuard. "More than 700 security agents are currently
listed in this platform that should be launched in summer 2016 along with a
progressive roll-out in several European capitals" adds Patrick Senior who is
also the CEO of BSL Security.

2. This application is currently under testing with BSL Security employees and
will be gradually available to other security companies. It will enable the
agent to choose his schedule instead of having it imposed upon.
The app- "A first in France and in Europe" according to Patrick Senior will
allow booking and ordering a private security agent in "a few clicks". "This
service complies with all legal and quality requirements" he adds. "The
agents listed in the platform, whether they are our employees or other
security companies' employees will need to provide the platform documents
such as their professional license, as if they were applying for an
employment contract.
Opening up the market to private customers
"The platform will shorten the processes of choosing, booking, ordering and
paying a security agent or bodyguard and will allow fulfillment of the ever
growing demand for security personnel in the aftermath of last November
attacks" added GettGuard. The company will generate profits by charging a
commission on each order.
BSL Security hopes to streamline and open up the private security market to
small companies and individuals that are looking for a fast and secure
solution for their protection and surveillance needs. "This app will re-
establish the business of small services that completely disappeared."
emphasized Patrick Senior.
The app required an investment of over 1 million Euros financed by la
Financière Patrick Senior, the holding behind BSL Security and was
developed during the last year and a half. In 2014, this holding generated a
turnover of 1.8 million Euros whereas BSL Security generated a turnover of

3. 22 million Euros in 2015. BSL Security is also part of Securalliance, an
economic interest group of human surveillance companies.
