Why have a security risk assessment?

In a county as safe as Wiltshire it might be easy to think that a security risk assessment isn’t needed for your business. However, Wiltshire boasts some of the best business security because companies, events and building owners invest in protecting themselves from vulnerabilities. Identifying and securing your vulnerabilities begins with a security risk assessment.

What is a security risk assessment?

A risk assessment is a specialised review, focused on identifying risks and vulnerabilities. Your experienced and highly trained professional will tailor the assessment to suit your business.  When an issue is identified, it is rated using a metric that assesses the severity of the risk vs the likelihood of it occurring to create an overall risk factor for the issue. All the points identified and their associated risk factor are collated into a formal risk assessment document. 

What happens when we conduct a security risk assessment?

We begin by getting to know you and your business, from the building/s you use to the processes you employ. We also investigate the wider area to gain an understanding of the security in your wider area. From this information, we can identify security vulnerabilities in your business, event or building. 

From our assessment, we’ll provide you with a Security Report outlining your security risks, as well as tailor-made recommendations to address your areas of vulnerabilities. We’ll also provide a quote to implement the recommendations. 

What solutions might be offered?

Our risk assessment reviews the physical security of your business. Security solutions can include CCTV locations to protect vulnerable areas, keyholder security and alarm system management. We can also offer support with manned guarding and mobile patrols to protect your perimeter out-of-hours or 24/7.

What are the benefits?

• Gain a better understanding of your vulnerabilities and better protect yourself moving forward. 
• An actioned risk assessment can provide reassurance to investors.
• Delivering a safe business or a secure event can boost your brand’s reliability and credibility with attendees, clients and business partners.
