Our Armed Security Guard Insurance Services

Comprehensive, Texas-compliant insurance solutions built for every exposure armed security businesses face.

General Liability

Protects your armed security business against third-party bodily injury and property damage claims arising from guard operations, incidents on client premises, and coverage required by most Texas security contracts.

Professional Liability

Covers claims of negligence, errors, or failure to perform security duties — essential for armed guard firms where a single oversight can trigger costly lawsuits from clients or affected parties.

Commercial Auto

Insures vehicles used by armed security personnel during patrol, transportation, and response duties across Texas — covering liability, physical damage, and hired and non-owned auto exposures.

Cyber Liability

Shields security firms that manage access control systems, surveillance data, or client records from the financial fallout of data breaches, ransomware attacks, and regulatory penalties.

Risk Management Services

Soma's expert risk team analyzes your armed security operation, identifies coverage gaps specific to Texas regulations, and builds a program designed to protect your business at the right price.

Industry-Specific Coverage

Tailored insurance programs built for the unique exposures of armed security companies — from firearm liability and assault and battery to workers' compensation and umbrella policies.

State-Specific Protection

Texas-Compliant Coverage Built for Armed Security Firms

Armed security companies operating in Texas navigate strict DPS licensing rules, firearm carry requirements, and client contract demands that standard commercial insurers routinely mishandle. Soma's risk specialists place coverage others won't — across general liability, professional liability, commercial auto, and more — through top-rated carriers like Chubb, Markel, and Kinsale. One application. Fast turnaround. Coverage built for your exact operation.
