Trident Group was established in April of 2000 and incorporated in the Commonwealth of Virginia. Trident Group (TG) was founded by U.S. Navy Special Operations personnel (SEAL) and Senior, U.S. Navy Surface Warfare Officers, in order to fill an observed gap in security consulting, technology development, technology implementation, and manpower application to the worldwide maritime community. TG initiated maritime services with the training of ship based security Teams in support of vessel Force Protection Operations as well as providing security assessments of critical port facilities. Simultaneously, TG addressed the Piracy problem which plagued the East in areas such as the Malaccan and Singaporean Straights. Today, TG is providing services to private sector clients, national infrastructure facilities, Gas and Oil assets both ashore and afloat and commercial customers managing merchant vessels transiting the high risk waters (HRW) of the world. TG, with our proven history of service and commitment to assets both in and around the maritime environment, is one of the few companies that came into existence, prior to 9/11, with the skill and capability to provide effective security and consulting support for the maritime and critical infrastructure industry.
