2 Generations of Leadership
100% Women-Led

Two Generations. One Mission.

BSS was founded by Joseph Ferdinando, a pioneer in the security industry who built the company on a simple promise: provide people with protection they can count on. That commitment hasn’t changed, but the company has grown in exciting ways.

A Family Foundation

When Joseph passed the torch to his family, it wasn’t just a business transition, it was a promise to carry forward the values that made BSS what it is: integrity, accountability, and genuine care for every client and every team member.

A New Chapter

Since 2016, Susan Ferdinando has led BSS as President, joined by her daughter Amanda DeAlmeida as Executive Vice President. Together, they bring over a century of combined experience in law enforcement, security management, and professional training – and a fresh vision for what a modern security company looks like.

Women Leading the Way

As a women-led enterprise in a traditionally male-dominated field, we bring a different perspective to security, one rooted in empathy, communication, and the belief that diverse teams deliver better outcomes. We’re proud to champion inclusivity, not as a talking point, but as a core part of how we operate every single day.

Every client we serve has a unique environment, culture, and set of needs. Our leadership team is personally involved in understanding those needs and shaping solutions that actually work – not just checking boxes on a contract.

What Sets Us Apart

Tailored to You

Our post orders and security plans are carefully built around your specific environment — and we update them regularly as your needs evolve. No cookie-cutter approaches here.

Professional Presence

First impressions matter. Our team members are outfitted in uniforms suited to your environment, so they represent both BSS and your organization with pride.

Proven Management

Our managers are selected not just for their credentials, but for their track record of exceeding expectations. They're hands-on leaders who know your site inside and out.

Continuous Oversight

From initial classroom training to on-site assignments, our leadership stays involved. Regular performance reviews at every level ensure the quality you were promised is the quality you get.
