History

Inter-Con Security Systems, Inc. (Inter-Con) was founded in 1973 with the goal of developing and implementing comprehensive security programs custom tailored to its clients’ needs. Retired Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) Detective Enrique “Hank” Hernandez and his wife Bertha Hernandez founded Inter-Con in Alhambra, California in 1973. Since 1986, his son, Enrique Hernandez, Jr., has been president and Chief Executive Officer.[3] It remains a privately owned company.[4]

The company's first customer was the U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to implement a security program incorporating a variety of security disciplines in a classified environment. This critically different starting place, and the sophisticated security efforts which followed, have shaped Inter-Con’s growth and organizational development.[5]

Operations

Inter-Con's security services include physical security, program management, electronic security, security consulting and training, specialized services, active shooter response, and executive protection.[6] The company's client list includes federal, state and local governments, multinational corporations, non-governmental organizations, public utilities, private businesses, hospitals, sports arenas, and high net worth individuals, among others.[7] Internationally, Inter-Con has developed into the premier provider of diplomatic security services, safeguarding dozens of United States Embassies, as well as dozens of other embassy locations around the world.[8][9]

Key sectors served by Inter-Con include aerospace & defense, consumer goods & services, education, energy & utilities, financial, government & diplomatic, healthcare, manufacturing, natural materials & resources, and non-governmental organizations.[10]
