Damon Zumwalt founded CSC in 1967 following his freshman year of college. While attending UCLA, Damon balanced the management of his newly established company with his academic and athletic pursuits, as a member of both the wrestling and football teams.

After receiving his degree from UCLA, Damon expanded CSC from a single-city operation with only 20 employees to over 80,000 employees and more than 50 branch locations throughout the United States. The pioneer of peer group security, Damon also facilitated CSC’s evolution from its original focus on concert security into a full spectrum crowd management and event security firm.

His innovative methods and CSC’s success over the past 53 years have made Damon a highly respected event management authority.

In addition to CSC, Damon has since founded other companies including ProtaTECH, APEX Security Group, and Contemporary International.

ProtaTECH, an information technology firm, supports CSC through its workforce management program, e-learning platform, and accreditation system.

APEX Security Group, an executive protection firm, utilizes highly trained security personnel to work in conjunction with CSC at events that require support above and beyond standard event security and crowd management services.

Contemporary International provides expertise and services for the world’s largest events and has provided services for the 2006 Commonwealth Games in Melbourne, the 2010 G8/G20 Summit in Toronto, and 9 Olympic Games. CSC and its affiliate companies provide services for more events than any other firm in the world, and through Damon’s leadership, have set the global industry bar for quality event security and crowd management services.
