Security
Audit, Security Test, Penetration Test, Risk Assessment
Security
Audits and
Penetration Tests must be integral parts of any security plan and
risk assessment. The international general security situation, as well
as an individual’s or company’s security situation is a dynamic,
ever-changing process. Nothing should be taken for granted. Security
managers must strive for loss prevention and asset protection. That's the
main concern of any modern security manager. Once you do have a
functioning security plan in place, including all elements such as
crisis response and
crisis management, the security system must be TESTED on a regular
basis.
It won't
help to have the in-house security run the test. The point of a test must
be to TEST the in-house security. It is very unwise to let the
in-house staff test themselves, for apparent reasons. In order to
relentlessly uncover each and any weakness, the security plan must be
tested by elite security experts, who really put the system to the test.
Parallel to that process, the security plan should be revised in all
stages of the planning, regular audits should take place, and should your
security staff be outsourced, the security company and its performance
should be vetted.
In order
to be effective, security measures need to be constantly reviewed and
updated. Our elite security experts will conduct a comprehensive security
audit, identify all areas for concern and draw up a list of
recommendations to prevent the likelihood of a breach of security. Our
audits include issues such as
-
examination of access control – identification of staff, recording of
visitors, restrictions for employees out of working hours, deliveries
and others
-
vetting of security staff and outsourced staff
-
study
of alarm systems and surveillance operations
-
discussions with the security guard force to assess recruitment
procedures
-
protection of commercial information and security of raw materials and
finished goods
