Built by an operator, not an app store.
Brandon Baker spent four years in the United States Marine Corps and fifteen years in law enforcement before founding Phalanx. He built the company on a simple standard: every protector who carries the Phalanx insignia is vetted, licensed, and trained to the level he'd trust with his own family.
