In the most extreme times facing the region in recent history, SOC, has been the leading security provider answering the call to safeguard American personnel and property in the West Bank, Gaza, and throughout Israel.
Serving in Jerusalem since late 2016, SOC has delivered a primary mission of ensuring the personal protection and safety of U.S. Government (USG) personnel, property, and facilities in this high-threat, high world focus, and extremely diplomatic sensitive environment. We provided the USG a profound understanding of the operating environment which is required to navigate the complex environment of Jerusalem—a location that for thousands of years has served as the epicenter of culture and religion—two acute drivers of the current unrest.
In the face of an intricate mission set—with security services, including mobile security, emergency response, protective security, and operations center support for the U.S. Department of State’s diplomatic mission in Israel— SOC’s team performance has been outstanding. With each team member bringing invaluable expertise to the U.S. Diplomatic Mission in Israel, SOC’s dedicated teams have provided critical 24/7/365 support. SOC also provided threat research and analysis services (TRAS) and logistics services and support.
Our mobile security teams have performed countless missions, while supporting with the ancillary services needed to sustain operations, including housing; furnished office space; locally sourced health and medical care services; morale, welfare and recreation (MWR) support; armory and ammunition services; communications and IT services; skills sustainment training services; and clothing and personal protective equipment (PPE).
"Protection means moving 'outside the wire' so we can engage and influence. In that effort, nothing is more vital than colleagues like yours at SOC, who are, with your leadership, an essential instrument of the U.S. presence today."
