Security company provides... (6,2,7)
I believe the answer is:
safety in numbers
'provides' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.
'security company' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'security' could be 'safety' (being secure is being safe) and 'safety' is located in the answer.
'company' could be 'number' (number is a kind of company) and 'number' is found in the answer.
The remaining letters 'ins' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for safety in numbers that I've seen before include "Salvation in holy book" , "Reassurance company brings" , "a few could be at risk?" .)
