List / Directory of Private Security Companies (contractors, firms) or PSCs. Indeed, sometimes PSCs are referred to as PMCs or PMSCs, and vice versa. It is also sometimes complex to distinguish between 'private military' and 'private security' capabilities, particularly when firms operate in dangerous environments. Therefore, it is perhaps better for you to focus on the services they offer, and if you fail to find the solution you were looking for, check our other directories.
