Security 101 acquires Silverstrand Technologies, expands Southern California footprint

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla.—Security 101 has acquired Silverstrand Technologies, a San Diego-based systems integrator, strengthening its presence across Southern California and expanding its capabilities in commercial, government and institutional markets.

Founded 19 years ago, Silverstrand provides video surveillance, access control, structured cabling, wireless networks, sound masking and life safety solutions. The company serves customers throughout San Diego, Orange County, Los Angeles and Riverside counties and has completed projects nationwide.

Security 101 said the acquisition enhances its position in one of the country's largest and most active security markets, where demand spans commercial enterprise, government, hospitality, aviation and entertainment sectors.

“Silverstrand is one of Southern California's most respected technology integrators, with a culture centered on taking care of both employees and customers,” said Security 101 CEO Greg Daly. “That focus mirrors our own. Bringing this team into the Security 101 organization strengthens our West Region and gives customers access to national resources delivered by the same local team they already trust.”

Silverstrand founder Jeremy Johnson will continue to lead the operation as general manager following the acquisition.

Johnson said partnering with Security 101 will help the company pursue larger opportunities while maintaining its customer relationships and workforce.

“My job has always been to take care of my employees so they can take care of our customers,” Johnson said. “I recently recognized that continuing to grow and take on larger projects would require a partner with the resources to back that work. I found that partner in Security 101.”

Security 101 said existing Silverstrand customers will retain access to the local team while gaining the benefits of the company's national infrastructure, managed services offerings and lifecycle support capabilities.

The acquisition also expands Security 101's technical capabilities in communications and life safety solutions, complementing its broader portfolio of integrated security services.

Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
