ARES Security Corporation develops risk management and situational awareness software designed to safeguard critical assets against evolving threats. Its flagship AVERT platform helps government and commercial clients prepare for, prevent, detect, assess, and respond to security risks affecting their operations. The company traces its origins to 1999, when AVERT was developed with support from the U.S. Department of Defense, and it was established as a stand-alone entity in 2012 to serve existing government clients while pursuing broader markets. From an initial focus on nuclear infrastructure and maritime domain awareness, ARES has broadened its portfolio to apply contextual awareness across a wider range of industries. Headquartered in Tysons, Virginia, the firm operates in the IT services and IT consulting space and serves customers responsible for critical infrastructure and homeland security. In March 2024, ARES announced a partnership with ShadowTech Labs and secured a contract with Palisades Nuclear Generation Station to deliver a next-generation Security Computer and Video Management System.
