CAP: South Africa’s Leading Non-Profit Community Security Organisation
What CAP is
CAP is a community-driven, non-profit security organisation that provides an integrated, intelligence-led crime-prevention model designed to protect residential areas, estates, suburbs and business districts. We combine advanced technology, real-time intelligence, elite tactical teams and community partnership to create safer environments where crime is proactively prevented.
Where CAP Operates
CAP protects more than fifty communities across Johannesburg through dedicated Area Commanders, on-the-ground teams and a sophisticated central command centre. Our model is active in neighbourhoods, gated communities, enclosures, estates and business zones throughout the northern suburbs and surrounding regions.
Why CAP Exists
CAP was created to stop crime before it reaches communities. As a non-profit, our purpose is to protect residents, not generate profit. With no shareholders and no VAT, every rand contributed is invested back into personnel, technology and operations. CAP exists to deliver measurable, sustainable safety through transparency, accountability and community partnership.
How CAP Works
CAP operates a comprehensive, intelligence-driven security ecosystem that prevents crime through layered protection, proactive detection and rapid tactical intervention. Our model uses real-time surveillance, AI-powered analytics, predictive data, integrated communications and highly trained teams to identify and stop threats before they escalate.
When you live in a CAP community, you’re part of a network of residents working together to create a safer and more vibrant neighbourhood.
Why CAP Is the Leading Choice for Community Security Schemes
Community security schemes are essential to residential and business safety in South Africa. While many providers offer guarding, armed response or technology, CAP is uniquely positioned as a non-profit and intelligence-led organisation dedicated entirely to long-term community protection.
