July 20, 2020 · 6 min read
Thinkcurity was an online learning and networking community for the physical security industry, created by Trackforce and Silvertrac Software. It began as a webinar series in 2019 and launched as a full website in 2020, bringing industry news, education and business resources together for security professionals.
Since then, Trackforce has brought TrackTik, GuardTek and Silvertrac together under one company and one website, and Thinkcurity is no longer active as a standalone site. The industry education it was known for now lives in the Trackforce resource library, alongside practical guidance on running security operations with TrackTik security workforce management software. This page explains what Thinkcurity was and where to find the same kind of content today.

What Was Thinkcurity?
As the security industry moved forward together, Trackforce and Silvertrac Software joined forces to provide top-notch security industry information tailored for the security professional.
Thinkcurity was an online learning and networking community that bridged the gap between industry thought leaders and physical security professionals. It featured content covering all aspects of the security business and became a hub for professionals looking for useful insight about their industry.
Thinkcurity grew out of the Silvertrac Extra, a library of articles, videos and resources that Silvertrac launched in 2014 to help security companies run more effective operations. In August 2019, the team took that strategy further with the Thinkcurity webinar series, and in July 2020 it launched Thinkcurity.com as a full online learning and networking community.
The idea came from a gap in the industry. Large conferences are expensive and pull leaders away from day-to-day operations, while regional associations offer more affordable events but usually focus on a narrower set of topics. Thinkcurity gave security officers, supervisors, managers and business owners a cost-effective, convenient place to learn from credible experts. Its webinars, articles, e-books, white papers and training tools covered the most popular topics in the industry:
- Business development
- Compliance
- Industry news
- Security operations
- Technology
- Workforce management
Thinkcurity’s Goal
Thinkcurity set out to offer thoughtful and engaging information for every operational level, from small security businesses to enterprise and in-house security teams. That commitment to your business success continues today at Trackforce.
