Welcome to the I.O.B.S.E.

The International Organization of Black Security Executives (IOBSE) was founded in 1982 by Black Security Executives concerned about the relatively small number of minority professionals, and the role black security professionals could have in helping young people.

This site has been developed to service our membership and allow visitors a chance to understand our mission and members. If you are not yet a member, we encourage you to apply if you qualify.
