About Us
Welcome to the official web site of ISS (Iditarod Security Services). We are part of the IGC Group of companies, located in Whitehorse, Yukon.
We are a professional secuity company, offering a broad range of products and services. The company idea was born during the fall of 2010, when, as most Whitehorse-based small business owners will remember, we had a span of several weeks where an unknown group of individuals went around the city throwing watermelons at businesses and their property (mainly signage items, such as sandwich boards). This cost local business owners tens of thousands of dollars in property damages, and no culprits were ever found.
After many months of training, preparation, and team recruiting, the company went public in October of 2010.
Due to the highly sensitive nature of our business, and the confidentiality requirements associated with it, we are unable to list the members of our staff and management.
We pride ourselves very highly on the ability to keep our clients anonymous. In situations where a project requires client confidentiality, the team that actually get assigned to the project never even has to physically meet the client. This is done through internal "housekeeping", and to ensure that our clients get the best service possible.
Our preferred method of communication is via e-mail, at info@iditarodsecurity.ca We can also be reached by phone, at (867) 332-5555. All correspondence is kept confidential, and NDAs (Non-Disclosure Agreements) can be signed prior to any divulging of personal or sensitive information.
We are also proud to offer no-obligation quotes ! We will communicate with you to assess your unique needs, create a customized solution, and give you a free, no-obligation quote.
