Physical security is an essential pillar of any risk management framework. In a world where threats to infrastructure, facilities and people can range from theft and vandalism to sabotage and hostile actors, a proactive and well-designed physical security approach ensures your organisation is prepared, resilient and protected. The framework should factor in that the physical security landscape is dynamic. Threats evolve, assets change and environments shift, necessitating periodic review, adaptation and adjustments.
At ORS Consulting we help organisations embed robust physical security measures into their broader safety and risk framework, creating integrated protections that deter threats, improve detection, enhance response readiness and support business continuity.
We tailor our services to your unique risk profile and compliance framework and focus on enabling informed decisions on security measures that protect people, assets and critical functions, without introducing unnecessary complexity or operational burden.
