Answer 2

The main difference between proprietary and contract security guards is their employer. Proprietary security guards are directly employed by a specific organization or company to provide security services exclusively for that entity. Contract security guards, on the other hand, are employed by a security company and assigned to different clients based on contractual agreements. Proprietary guards often work in-house and have a deeper understanding of the organization they protect, while contract guards offer flexibility and may have experience working with various clients in different industries.
