Securitas Technology marks 9/11 anniversary with Flight 93, Tunnel to Towers support

UNIONTOWN, Ohio—Securitas Technology is commemorating the 25th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks through support of two organizations dedicated to preserving the legacy of the day and assisting those affected by it.

The electronic security provider announced that it is supporting the Friends of Flight 93 National Memorial and the Tunnel to Towers Foundation as part of its efforts to honor the lives lost, first responders and others impacted by the attacks.

"As we mark the 25th anniversary of September 11, 2001, we remember the lives lost, honor the heroes who responded, and recognize the resilience that emerged from tragedy," said Tony Byerly, global president and CEO of Securitas Technology. "The lessons of that day continue to reinforce our purpose and the importance of creating a safer and more secure world. Through our support of Friends of Flight 93 and the Tunnel to Towers, we are helping preserve these stories, support those who serve others, and ensure future generations never forget."

As part of the initiative, Securitas Technology is sponsoring the 2026 National Day of Learning through Friends of Flight 93 National Memorial. The program is designed to educate future generations about the events of Sept. 11 and the actions of the passengers and crew aboard Flight 93.

"For 25 years, the story of Flight 93 has stood as a powerful example of courage, sacrifice and unity," said Donna Gibson, executive director of Friends of Flight 93 National Memorial. "Support from organizations like Securitas Technology helps us continue sharing these lessons with future generations."

Securitas also named the Tunnel to Towers Foundation as its official charity partner for GSX 2026, supporting the organization's mission of serving military members, first responders and their families.

The company said the impact of 9/11 continues to influence the security profession, reshaping approaches to safety, preparedness and risk management while driving innovation across the electronic security industry.
