For the latest episode of Field Notes from the Front Line: Voices of Responsible Security, we hear from Bardhyl Hoxha, Senior Advisor at ARB Security, an ICoCA-certified private security company working across Albania.
ARB Security received the Affiliate Award as part of the inaugural ICoCA Responsible Security Awards in 2025, recognised for its community-based security approach supporting infrastructure and energy projects in areas where development activities closely intersect with local communities. By prioritising local recruitment and encouraging guards to act as a link between project operators and residents, the company has worked to build trust, improve communication and reduce potential sources of tension.
In this conversation, we explore how community-based security can contribute to more effective and locally informed operations, the importance of understanding community dynamics in complex project environments, and the role responsible security practices can play in supporting both operational continuity and stronger relationships with affected communities.
