What type of agency is specifically licensed to conduct business providing security services?

The correct answer, "License Security Agency," accurately identifies the type of agency that is specifically authorized to conduct business in providing security services. In the context of security operations within the District of Columbia, licensed security agencies are required to adhere to regulatory standards and obtain the necessary permits and licenses to offer their services legally. This ensures that they meet specific training, operational, and ethical standards necessary to operate within the security industry.

While private security contractors may provide security services, they often work under the umbrella of a licensed security agency. A private detective agency, on the other hand, typically focuses on investigative services rather than the direct provision of security services. A license agency is a more general term that does not specify the type of security-related services and therefore does not accurately capture the specific nature of the agency defined in the question.
