A Trusted Advisor:

Top companies nationwide entrust VTI Security to deliver on their technology and security initiatives.  The clients with whom we partner understand that at the heart of our success has been the ability to understand that their business requirements must be the center of every solution.

VTI Security was formed in 1980 in response to customer needs for a quality integration partner in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area.  Our core belief is that by listening to the customer we can better understand their needs and make proactive solutions that solve real business problems.  The relationships we earned have allowed the business to grow so that we are consistently recognized as a top 25 system integrator in the United States with six (6) offices in (5) five states.

From 1996 - 2004 we owned a software company called Loss Control Solutions, (LCS).  LCS designed and marketed a software application still in use by many of the top U.S. based financial services companies in their investigations and compliance departments (LSC was sold in 2004).  Our professional software developers along with experience in database and networks provide the competency for the design and deployment of todays most basic or complicated IP/IT based integrated security systems.

In 2007, we offered "Equipment Staging and Configuration" around a professional methodology for the deployment of IP based systems.  This process provides network devices, video cameras, access control panels, to be deployed consistently and accurately anywhere in the field.

We have over 110 employees located in six (6) offices.  We maintain a technically experienced team of IT, engineering, project management, certified technicians and operations support personnel.  In addition to manufacturer product certifications, we maintain various credentials in Microsoft, Cisco and Network Plus, and Project Management.
