About us
From counter terrorism to survival skills ITSS and SSN deliver professional training for real world challenges.
Our story
I operate two closely connected companies with overlapping services: ITSS and Security Services Norway (SSN). ITSS is the parent company with an international profile, responsible for products and gear, security services, and counter-terrorism operations. SSN, on the other hand, is more locally focused and specializes in security-related events and training within Norway.
Most of our courses and events are held on my private property in Norway, situated right next to a national park in the mountain outback. This unique location provides the perfect setting for both professional training and authentic outdoor experiences.
We offer access to several private shooting ranges suitable for both short guns and rifles, with opportunities for long-range shooting up to 700 meters. You can practice with pistols, shotguns, rifles in caliber .308, as well as the Remington 700. For overnight stays, you can choose between cozy lodges, historic timber buildings, or my main farmhouse, a traditional timber building dating back to the 1500s.
Civil response
I provide a comprehensive preparedness program called Civil Respons, where participants gain practical skills in security, survival, and tactical response. Most training takes place on my private property in the Norwegian mountains, offering both realistic conditions and authentic outdoor experiences.
