The CAL Security Group team is the founder who runs the company, the BSIS-registered officers on your post, the field supervisors who check on them, and the dispatch line that answers 24/7.
CAL Security Group belongs to Chaudhry Younus, who founded it and still runs it. He served in the U.S. Air Force, has worked in the security industry for 24 years, and brings a background in strategic planning and crisis management to the job.
Those 24 years are his, not the company's. We say so plainly because a lot of security websites blur the two, and a founder's career is not the same thing as a company's track record. You will not find staff counts or a figure for combined experience on this site either. The founder's career is the one number here we can back up, so it is the only one we print.
Outside the company, Younus is active in community associations and veterans' causes. For a client, the practical meaning is simple: the owner is a person you can reach, and he is the last call when a problem on your property climbs past a supervisor. The about page covers how his background shapes the way posts are planned and escalated.
This page has no staff directory, no headshots and no headcount. What matters to a client is how the work is divided, because the hand-offs between these roles decide whether a post runs well at 3 a.m.
Every officer holds a BSIS guard card, which means fingerprints checked by the California Department of Justice and the FBI and 40 hours of state-required training, plus 8 more every year. CAL officers are unarmed. Each one is briefed on your site's post orders before the first shift and writes the report you receive when the shift ends.
Supervisors turn up at posts during shifts without calling ahead. They check that the officer is there, in uniform and walking the rounds the post orders set. They are also the next call when an officer runs into something the post orders say not to handle alone.
The dispatch line at (323) 792-3061 answers 24/7. Officers on post use it when they need a decision or backup. Clients call the same number, day or night, to report a problem on a site CAL covers.
Before anyone works your property, the site is walked for free, the quote is written post by post, and the post orders are drafted from what the walk found. A certificate of insurance naming you goes out before the first shift as well.
Every post has a written answer for what the officer handles alone. A propped fire door, or a trespasser who leaves when asked, stays at that level and goes into the report.
Anything bigger gets a supervisor on the phone. With dispatch answering at every hour, the officer is never left alone deciding who to ring.
A fire, a medical emergency or a crime in progress means 911 before anything else. The calls to the company and to you follow.
The post orders say what is worth waking you for and what waits until morning. Either way, the incident, its time and the action taken are in that shift's written report.
CAL hires unarmed officers who hold a California guard card or are working toward one. The job suits people who arrive early, write plainly, stay calm with a trespasser in the middle of the night, and follow post orders when nobody seems to be watching.
Somebody may well be. Supervisor visits are unannounced, and the client receives every report.
The careers page sets out what BSIS requires, how the training hours are staged, and how to apply by phone or email.
