FIS (Unternehmen)

FIS (Unternehmen) — originally Flug- und Industriesicherheit Service- und Beratungs-GmbH (FIS GmbH) — is a German security services provider founded in 1988 as a subsidiary of ICTS Europe S.A. Headquartered in Frankfurt am Main, near Frankfurt Airport, the company built its reputation in aviation security and later expanded into maritime security, industrial site protection, and high-technology corporate environments. It now operates as ICTS Deutschland GmbH, part of the Groupe Sofinord and a subsidiary of ICTS Europe. The company was established in 1988 under the name Flug- und Industriesicherheit Service- und Beratungs-GmbH (FIS GmbH). It quickly developed a notable presence in the aviation security sector, offering professional concepts, services, and security solutions that became milestones in the industry. In 2002, ICTS Europe S.A. and its subsidiaries, including ICTS Deutschland, were acquired by Fraport AG, the owner of Frankfurt Airport. In the following years, ICTS Europe steadily grew its customer base to over 250 international clients across Europe, Africa, and Asia. This expansion allowed ICTS Deutschland to broaden its clientele and improve customer relationships nationwide, making it the market leader for American airlines in the aviation security sector. In 2008, ICTS Europe S.A. and its subsidiaries were acquired by Management und Deutsche Beteiligungs-AG, a leading German private equity firm listed on the German stock exchange. ICTS Europe then identified a niche in object and industrial security, leveraging its long-standing aviation security experience to establish a firm foothold in this sector, with subsidiaries like ICTS Deutschland developing the necessary expertise and qualifications. The company also expanded its services further. Today, ICTS Deutschland GmbH is part of the Groupe Sofinord and a subsidiary of ICTS Europe. It employs more than 850 people nationwide and serves local and global clients. Its offering combines manpower, custom technologies developed by sister company ICTS Systems, explosive detection dogs, and security solutions delivered independently or in integrated ways to match business needs and risk levels. The company's expertise, rooted in early aviation security concepts, has extended to new high-risk public sectors such as maritime security and top-tier high-technology corporate environments.
