Physical and Operational Security Assessments

The Difference:
A physical security assessment examines various aspects of an organizations security infrastructure, identifying vulnerabilities and providing enhancements within the standards and culture of your site(s).

An operational security assessment examines your current levels of security operations in comparison with the most effective and safe standards. Identifying areas of vulnerability and risk, and what it will take to enhance levels on a permanent basis. Examples of operational security: Embedded drills, training protocols, scenario based training, prevention methods, intruder response protocols, misconduct prevention protocols, etc…
