Final answer:

The main goals of a security guard are to Detect issues, Deter crime, Deny unauthorized access or activities, and Document incidents.

Step-by-step explanation:

The main goals of a security guard can be summarized by the '4 D's': Detect, Deter, Deny, and Document. The third 'D', which is missing in your question, stands for Deny. A security guard aims to deny any unauthorized access or activities on the premises to prevent crimes from occurring in the first place. Lastly, they document any incidents and report them to their superiors to ensure there is a record of what has occurred, and so that appropriate actions can be taken to prevent future incidents.
