Kaieteur News- In what is being described as a bold move to redefine the role of women in the security
industry, two business leaders, Filisha Duke and Dr. Alista Bishop have joined forces to
launch a new security company- Aegis Security Firm.
This initiative is set to bridge the gap in a traditionally male-dominated field, empowering women to take a leading role in security solutions, risk management, and industry innovation, the new firm said in a press release. Aegis Security Services Inc., a product of a strategic partnership between their individual group of companies, will serve as a platform for thought leadership, industry collaboration, and professional development within the security sector. The official launch is scheduled for July 2025, with the venue to be announced soon.
According to the release, Aegis Security’s mission extends beyond business—it is about reshaping perceptions, fostering inclusivity, and creating opportunities for women in security. Aegis Security. will offer insights into private security solutions, corporate risk management, cybersecurity, and crisis response, ensuring that women are not just participants but leaders in the industry. “We are stepping into an industry where women have often been overlooked, and we are here to change that narrative,” said Filisha Duke. “Aegis Security is not just about providing security services—it’s about building a network where women can thrive, lead, and drive meaningful change,” she added.
For her part, Dr. Bishop added, “This initiative is a testament to what happens when strong, visionary women come together. Security is evolving, and we are ensuring that women are at the forefront of that evolution—not just as contributors, but as decision-makers.”
Aegis Security Services Inc. will engage professionals from law enforcement, corporate security, private investigations, and cybersecurity, offering training, networking opportunities, and strategic discussions on industry advancements. Further details about the event, including keynote speakers and special guests, will be revealed in the coming weeks, the release added.
