About Us
The History of Krimson
Krimson Security & Fingerprinting, Inc. was born in Westmont, IL on January 13th, 2013. At the time, Krimson was just an IL LiveScan Fingerprint Vendor and was called Krimson Security & Investigations. Krimson has since grown into not only a LiveScan Fingerprint Vendor, but also a Security Contractor and Private Detective Agency that offers a variety of investigative services and training classes. In December of 2017, Krimson Security & Investigations changed its name to Krimson Security & Fingerprinting, Inc. and expanded its services to the Lake County area by opening a second location in Gurnee, IL.
Ryan Kern is the proud founder and owner of what is now Krimson Security & Fingerprinting, Inc.
Ryan’s passion for protecting and keeping the public informed on personal safety and security is demonstrated through his extensive experience as a Military Police Officer in the United States Army, Private Detective, Private Security Consultant, and instructor of Active Shoot Training, Concealed Carry, Security Officer Training (Unarmed & Armed), and NRA Firearms Training.
