More About our Business

What is important to us:

We provide uncompromising expertise for mission-critical challenges.
Whether we are helping you prepare for the future or respond to a crisis, we aim to exceed your expectations. We pride ourselves on our responsiveness and professionalism, often in very challenging circumstances. While we cannot promise the particular result of an investigation, we do promise to follow the evidence wherever it leads and to do so with integrity.
Bias-free Service
All humans have biases. We are aware of the impact of bias in security-related fields, and we aim to continually work to ensure that they stay out of our work.
Social Justice
Security consultant and private investigator Jonathan Lacey has been passionate about addressing inequities in society for three decades. He continues this through efforts to avoid perpetuating biases in training, investigation, and consulting, as well as though his volunteer work, which includes service as Vice President of the Board of Directors of Neighborhood Legal Services, Inc., of Buffalo, NY, and as a volunteer mentor with Compeer Buffalo.

Updates:

Here’s what’s new at STS:

New Name!
In September 2025, we changed our name from Security & Training Solutions to STS Risk Management Group. We kept the initials STS from our original name as an acknowledgement of our first six years. This change reflects some changes we made to our original offerings based on customer demand. Some of those changes included offering crisis management services which include advising organizations during or immediately after a security incident, such as a threat.
Private Investigation Services Now Available!
Effective October 2025, STS Risk Management Group is licensed by the New York State Department of State for Private Investigation, with Jonathan R. Lacey as the licensed principal/private investigator. The acquisition of this license was due to customer demand and allows us to provide more comprehensive services to organizations and attorneys, particularly in times of crisis. Clients should take comfort in knowing that being approved for a license involved the passing of an examination, a background investigation, and verification of experience, as well as good standing with Mr. Lacey’s former agency.
