Help protect your congregation, property and facilities with security designed for today's threats. Max Security USA combines AI-powered Remote Guarding, live video monitoring and integrated security technology with trained security professionals and a 24/7 U.S.-based command center.

Security Challenges

Security Doesn't End When Services Do.

Synagogues and Jewish community facilities can face security concerns during services, events and everyday operations, as well as when buildings are closed or lightly staffed.

  • Unauthorized Access

  • Suspicious After-Hours Activity

  • Vandalism

  • Loitering

  • Perimeter Activity

  • Parking Lot Activity

Remote Guarding

Cameras That Don't Just Record. Security Professionals Who Can Respond.

Traditional surveillance cameras can document what happened. Remote Guarding adds active monitoring. AI-powered video analytics help identify activity that may require attention, and trained security professionals review events in real time, assess what is happening and take appropriate action based on established protocols.
