El Departamento de Seguridad tiene entre sus principales propósitos trabajar de la mano con el Departamento de Operaciones, y todos los Departamentos y Franquicias para combatir las diferentes modalidades delictivas que atentan contra la seguridad y la estabilidad de nuestras empresas. Este Departamento tiene como función primordial prevenir el delito (entendiendo con ello el robo, hurto, y desapariciones de todas aquellas propiedades de la empresa o en custodia y transporte por la misma), y efectuar indagaciones preliminares cuando éste ha tenido lugar. En particular es el encargado de ejecutar las disposiciones sobre la materia y recopilar, analizar e interpretar la información sobre criminalidad en la empresa. Sin un eficaz y eficiente servicio de transporte nuestras empresas se paralizarían y el crecimiento económico se estancaría. Prevenir el delito reviste, por lo tanto, crucial importancia y es sin duda uno de los mayores aportes que puede hacer el Departamento de Seguridad al progreso y al bienestar
