About SOV Security

Campus security specialists for California's K–12 and community college districts, focused entirely on education.

California's
Campus Security Integrator

SOV Security is a CSLB-licensed electronic security systems integrator with 40-plus years behind it. We design, install, and maintain integrated security infrastructure for California education agencies.

Our education practice covers the full spectrum: community college districts, K–12 school districts, and university campuses. We understand the unique challenges of campus environments, open access areas, high foot traffic, sensitive zones, after-hours security needs, and tight public agency budgets.

We are a GSA/CMAS Schedule holder and are experienced with California public agency procurement requirements, including DSA compliance. Our team works directly with facilities directors and district IT managers from design through commissioning.
