| AllMusic |   [4] |
Andy Hinds at AllMusic gave Maximum Security 4.5 stars out of 5, calling it "much better" than MacAlpine's 1986 debut album Edge of Insanity, and "essential listening for anyone interested in instrumental guitar music"; its "captivating neoclassical/fusion forays are filled with plenty of beautiful melodies and hair-raising solos".[4]
