World security and the safety of your business and property have been prioritized. Companies and organizations invest heavily in security and safety systems, including video surveillance, CCTVs, intruder alarms, nurse call systems, perimeter security, and access control systems. Such systems have improved job turnover and the overall productivity of companies and organizations. With the rapid growth in this technology, many manufacturers and supplies have cropped up in the market. Thus, there has been a need to regulate the manufacturing, supplying, installing, and maintaining such products. Such important tasks can only be held by a single government body that can license, insure, and approve anything that matters to security and safety. In Dubai, the Security Industry Regulatory Agency (SIRA) has been mandated with such tasks. In this article, we shall look at the SIRA certification, a crucial role that SIRA plays through BASS LLC.

Who is SIRA?
SIRA is an abbreviation of the Security Industry Regulatory Agency. This is a regulatory agency that was introduced in 2016 in Dubai by the Dubai government to monitor the security measures within Dubai government’s authoritative areas and ensure that Dubai ranks the best in matters of security and ensure that all the security and safety of the city fall on the right and safest hands. It is also responsible for certifying the security companies in Dubai, ranging from IT and innovative security installations to security guards. In short, the central role of SIRA is to issue certification to security organizations, companies, and experts before they start operations in Dubai.
Why Get SIRA Certification?
Below are the three main reasons you should have SIRA certification before entering into the security business in Dubai.
