12 complete ISS Security Guard Training

The students shown in the photo took the first step towards qualifying to become a Licensed Security Guard when they enrolled in and successfully completed the course conducted by Tony Strollo, a retired State Trooper and former Correction Officer and Lt. in Campus Law Enforcement.  Not only did the students get the required mandated course but they heard it from a person who has dedicated his life to security...in the military, in the prison system, in law enforcement, and in campus safety.  Mr. Strollo is also the author of "Four Long Days: Return to Attica", a true human-interest story about two brothers wrapped up in the worst prison riot in America History.

When it comes to security, we all live in individual, unique worlds.

Independent Security Services, Inc. can put together a comprehensive security plan custom designed to meet your unique security needs, and help make your world more secure.

A world of experience

Founder and President Anthony R. Strollo, started and is the culmination of his thirty-eight years of experience as a soldier, an officer of the law, a certified police instructor, an author and a businessman.

"As a 3 year active U.S. Army military Veteran and a 20 year veteran of the New York State Police, we advertise our company as being owned and operated by a military and law enforcement veteran.  Our focus is to deliver the best security and investigative service our company could provide to our clients.  These services will be delivered by our licensed and trained professionals, many of whom are current and/or former military and law enforcement veterans, ready to deliver more than what is expected.  We go the extra mile for our clients." - Tony Strollo

Along the way, Mr. Strollo built mutually respectful relationships with some of the finest experts in protective services. ISS protective and investigative agents come from these nationwide relationships. All are experienced and accomplished officers, many selected for their assignments from graduating classes of the Executive Protection Institute and similar national or international professional schools.

Carol P. Wagar, a Senior Agent and certified Executive Protection Specialist with ISS, was recently commended for her achievement in being the first female graduate of the Executive Protection Institute in Berryville, Virginia to have earned the very difficult title of Licensed Private Investigator in New York State. Carol started working for Independent Security Services, Inc. in August of 1999 .
