RALEIGH, NC, UNITED STATES, August 11, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Sunstates Security is proud to announce its inclusion on the prestigious Inc. 5000 list of America’s fastest-growing private companies. Earning a spot on this exclusive list for the fourth year in a row is an achievement that reflects far more than numbers; it highlights long-term organizational resilience, operational excellence, and the unwavering trust of our clients across the nation.
Accomplishing consecutive recognition on the Inc. 5000 requires constant evolution. Over the past year, Sunstates has taken bold, strategic steps to deepen our service capabilities, expand our geographic footprint, and invest in the people who drive our mission forward every day.

Expanding Our Capabilities
A defining milestone in our growth journey over the past year was the strategic acquisition of both TorchStone Global and WatchGuard. TorchStone brought premier risk mitigation capabilities, specializing in protective intelligence, executive protection, corporate risk consulting, and event security. Meanwhile, the integration of WatchGuard further deepened our operational capabilities and regional footprint, expanding our client base and welcoming nearly 1,000 new team members to our organization.

Speaking of Torchstone, they were also named on the Inc 5000 list 2026! Marking their 4th consecutive year on the list and 5th honor overall, this milestone highlights TorchStone’s position as a trusted leader in the industry. Congratulations to the team driving this sustained excellence and growth, and we’re glad to have you as a part of Sunstates!

Beyond expanding our internal operations, our growth is further driven by a network of carefully vetted strategic partners. We concentrate on what we do best, and when specialized technology or niche expertise can elevate a client’s security posture, we collaborate with proven industry leaders. From real-time threat intelligence and advanced risk forecasting to remote video guarding and specialized fleet management, these trusted partnerships allow Sunstates to deliver a seamless, fully integrated security ecosystem, without ever compromising on service quality or our client-first commitment.

Organic Growth
Alongside strategic acquisitions, Sunstates has maintained strong organic momentum across regional markets nationwide. At the core of our sustained expansion is a steadfast, people-first philosophy. By prioritizing the support, training, and well-being of our team, we empower our frontline personnel to deliver an exceptional level of service every single day. This culture directly translates into strong client trust and high retention rates. Satisfied clients routinely become our strongest advocates, driving steady growth through direct referrals and expanding our services with our current clients.

Growing Markets
Sunstates continues to strategically expand its national footprint across high-demand sectors, delivering specialized security solutions to critical infrastructure, data centers, and complex facilities nationwide.

Inc 5000 List 2026
At its core, earning a place on the Inc. 5000 list for a fourth straight year is a direct result of the hard work and vigilance shown by our frontline officers, regional operations teams, and leadership every single day. Their commitment to representing Sunstates with precision and pride is what makes our growth possible.

As we celebrate this milestone, our focus remains clear: continuing to elevate industry standards, delivering exceptional value to our partners, and building a strong, sustainable future together.

Award-Winning Workplace Culture
Sustainable growth is impossible without a dedicated workforce, and our momentum is fueled by a steadfast commitment to putting our people first. In 2026 alone, Sunstates celebrated historic workplace recognitions, including:
• Three Forbes Best Employer awards
• A U.S. News & World Report Top Workplace honor
