Risk Based Approach

Knighthood analyses your organisation’s context and potential threats to decide the physical security measures needed. A risk-based approach ensures the measures are proportionate and effective.

We identify the people, information, physical assets, and functions that need protection, then determine the threats facing your organisation. We understand the value and sensitivity of your information and assets so the physical security risks can be assessed accurately.

Using Business Impact Levels (BILs), we assess the potential impact if people, information, or assets were harmed, compromised, or unavailable. For example:

  • Customer aggression
  • Property theft
  • Tampering with the security system and unauthorised out-of-hours access
  • Unauthorised access to premises and theft of valuable information

For each threat scenario, we consider the risks to the public and to people, property, operations, reputation, finances, or business processes.
