Physical Security – Gladius & Schild

Physical Security

In today’s interconnected world, cybersecurity often takes center stage when discussing security strategies. However, the importance of a strong physical security strategy cannot be understated. Physical security measures act as the first line of defense, safeguarding your physical assets, personnel, and sensitive information from unauthorized access and potential threats

What is Physical Security?

Physical security encompasses a general set of practices and technologies designed to deter, detect, and mitigate physical security risks within a designated space. This space can range from a single office building to a sprawling manufacturing facility or a vast warehouse complex. A well-designed physical security strategy incorporates a layered approach, utilizing a combination of physical barriers, access control systems, security personnel, and security monitoring solutions.

Benefits of Physical Security

Upgraded Asset Protection

Physical security measures safeguard your valuable assets, including equipment, inventory, and sensitive documents, from theft, vandalism, and other physical threats.

IMPROVED WORKPLACE SAFETY

A secure work environment fosters a sense of safety and well-being for your employees. Physical security measures deter criminal activity and minimize the risk of workplace violence.

REDUCED BUSINESS INTERFERENCE

Physical security incidents can significantly interrupt business operations. Implementing a strong physical security strategy minimizes downtime and ensures business continuity in the face of potential threats.

Compliance with Regulations

Many industries, such as healthcare and finance, are subject to regulations that mandate specific physical security controls. A general physical security strategy helps ensure your organization meets these compliance requirements and avoids potential fines or penalties.

UPGRADED DETERRENCE AND RESPONSE

A visible and well-designed physical security system deters potential criminals and allows for a more effective response to security incidents. This can minimize potential damage and facilitate swift apprehension of perpetrators.

Our Physical Security Implementation Methodology

Needs Assessment and Discovery

We begin with a collaborative discovery session to understand your specific needs, security concerns, and the physical layout of your facility. This discussion ensures our physical security solutions are custom to your single environment and address your most critical security vulnerabilities.

Security Design and Planning

Based on the risk assessment findings, we design an adaptable physical security plan that outlines the security controls, technologies, and procedures to be implemented. This plan considers access control strategies, perimeter security measures, and security monitoring solutions.

Security System Implementation

Our team perfectly integrates the selected security systems and technologies within your facility. This may involve installing access control systems, security cameras, intrusion detection systems, or implementing security lighting upgrades.

Security Policy Development and Training

We assist you in developing a general physical security policy that outlines access control protocols, security response procedures, and employee training guidelines. Our team also conducts security awareness training for your employees, ensuring they understand their role in maintaining a secure physical environment. This training allows employees to identify suspicious activity, report security incidents, and follow proper security protocols.

Ongoing Monitoring and Management

Physical security is not a one-time event; it's an ongoing process. We offer ongoing monitoring of your security systems and regular security assessments to identify any emerging threats or vulnerabilities. This active approach ensures your physical security posture remains effective in the face of evolving security environments.
