unarmed guards
Patrol without weapons
Unarmed guards are security personnel who patrol or monitor without carrying weapons.
The term often appears in discussions of inadequate protection: The museum had only unarmed guards when the thieves struck.
It can also describe a deliberate policy choice, as when institutions want security presence without escalation risk.
