At the core of Security & Safety Associates of Louisiana LLC (SSALA) is Founder Revere Christophe, a seasoned law enforcement and corporate security professional with more than 27 years in law enforcement and nearly two decades in the petrochemical industry as a security and safety expert.

Driven by a commitment to protecting lives and livelihoods, Christophe founded SSALA to meet a critical and evolving need: ensuring that individuals in high-risk, high-responsibility roles are properly vetted before they’re hired. “After 9/11, when the U.S. was attacked, the posture and nature of the country changed,” he says. “It fostered a need in the market for our verification services.”

A retired petrochemical security and safety leader, Revere has provided oversight in compliance with MTSA, DOT, TSA, and Responsible Care® Security Code standards. He has extensive experience in the verification and validation of Quality Management Systems (QMS) through internal audits, assessments, and industry best practices.

His expertise spans over 15 years of managing and implementing advanced physical security systems, including CCTV, access control, Security Operations Center design, and facility-wide safety architecture. 

Christophe holds professional auditor certifications in:

• RC14001:2015 / RCMS:2019 (Responsible Care Management System)
• ISO 9001:2015 (Quality Management Systems)
• ISO 19011:2018 (Guidelines for Auditing Management Systems)
