ASIS NYC membership includes local access through NYPD Shield. But did you know that your NYC Chapter's active support of the Global Shield Network and its Global Shield Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, extends that value far beyond New York City? Through Board-level involvement and ongoing collaboration, your NYC Chapter has built a direct bridge connecting local resources to a worldwide network of security professionals and law enforcement partners.

Here's what that means for you:

ON-DEMAND GLOBAL CONNECTIVITY
Need a trusted contact in London, Belgium, Australia, Canada or any of the 70+ international Shield partner programs? Simply reach out to a Chapter Board member. NYC Chapter Board ties enable fast, warm introductions to foreign law enforcement agencies and private-sector executive connections that go well beyond what standard local channels can offer.

ACCESS TO BROADER INTELLIGENCE & INSIGHTS
Through the Global Shield Network, members can tap into expanded threat information, cross-border best practices, and emerging international trends. Chapter Board engagement ensures you receive timely, actionable intelligence on issues affecting your operations, supply chains, or travel—insights that aren't always available through local resources alone.

PERSONALIZED SUPPORT FOR YOUR INTERNATIONAL CHALLENGES
Is your organization navigating a cross-border security issue, coordinating with international vendors, or managing global expansion? The NYC Chapter Board serves as your direct connection point to the full Global Shield Network, helping you accelerate solutions and forge collaborations that would otherwise require slow, cold outreach.

CAREER & PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT

Leverage these global relationships for international benchmarking, joint projects, speaking opportunities, and worldwide networking. Your ASIS NYC membership carries added weight as a recognized partner across borders, strengthening your professional profile with meaningful public-private security exposure on a global scale.

MISSION-DRIVEN IMPACT

By supporting the Global Shield Foundation through chapter initiatives, we collectively contribute to sustaining and expanding the Network, while reinforcing our chapter's reputation as a committed leader in global security partnerships.

The bottom line: If you’re responsible for protecting people, assets, or operations within your organization, staying connected isn’t optional, it’s critical. The NYC Chapters support of the Global Shield Network transforms your membership into a personal global resource. When your security needs extend beyond New York, connect with a Board member—the Global Shield Network is ready to help you succeed.

Thank you,

ASIS International – New York City Chapter
