Security-Net, a network of leading security system integrators, introduced its newest member, Louis Boulgarides from Los Angeles-based Ollivier Managed Security. 

Boulgarides’ addition expands Security-Net's reach on the West Coast and brings its membership total up to 18 security integration company partners in North America.  

Boulgarides brings to Security-Net a diverse and extensive career in the security industry. With more than 33 years of experience, he has a strong background in cloud-based solutions, including managed services. His company operates a global security operations center (GSOC) where the focus is on providing customers with alarm and video monitoring, along with managed services, according to an announcement. 

For Boulgarides, joining Security-Net provides him with the opportunity to share best practices with fellow members, along with the ability to provide customers with access to top-level systems integration support outside of Los Angeles using the network of partners.  

“Our employees have a unique mix of experience in both guarding and security system installation,” said Boulgarides, president and CEO of Ollivier Managed Security. “Because we understand how our customers will use the products we install, we are uniquely positioned to   help our clients with their global security needs.” 

With Boulgarides and Ollivier Managed Security joining Security-Net, members of Security-Net gain additional expertise in monitoring and managed services, along with important coverage in the Southern California market. 

“As an organization we are continuously looking for new members to join Security-Net who have their finger on the pulse of the latest security industry technology trends and who can provide important geographical reach for national account customers,” said Bill Hogan, president and CEO of D/A Central, a Security-Net member who was instrumental in recruiting Boulgarides to join the group. “Louis Boulgarides and his business, Ollivier Managed Security, is clearly leading the way in both of these areas.” 

Boulgarides' journey in the security industry began three decades ago. He has spent two decades focused on the guarding aspect of the business and previously served as the senior regional vice president at Allied Universal with their guarding division, before transitioning to president of their systems integration division. Five years ago he purchased Ollivier Managed Security after working for the company for three years. 

Security-Net currently has 18 members with an extensive geographical footprint to serve customers throughout the United States, Canada and internationally. Together, members share best practices, including technical knowledge and training initiatives, and partner on customer projects that extend beyond a company’s geographic reach to ensure national account-level service.
