Managing Physical Security Risk

Inquiry This course is not yet bookable.

Assess the physical security risks at a site and prepare an action plan. You decide which measures to prioritise and consider how they can be implemented. The plan supports internal review, commissioning and budgeting. Work with your organisation or a course case.

Develop a physical security action plan for a site. Examine access routes, assets and existing safeguards, and assign responsibility for the proposed measures. Consider how visitor flows and the availability of response staff affect operations.

In the course case, compare two designs: how quickly is an access attempt detected, how long is it delayed and when can a responder arrive? Account for ongoing staffing and examine why an extra camera without alarm monitoring cannot ensure a timely response. Detailed technical design and site inspection remain part of subsequent specialist planning.

What you will work on

  • You document protection objectives, threat assumptions and valuable assets for a selected site.
  • You prioritise security controls by effectiveness, feasibility, dependencies and residual risk.
  • You compare two protection designs against available response time.

Who it is for

  • Site managers
  • Security managers
  • Facilities and operations leads

Topics

  • Site boundaries, mandate and protection objectives
  • Access, assets, critical processes and threat scenarios
  • Control effect, operational impact and implementation dependencies
  • Prioritisation under budget and organisational constraints
  • Ownership, commissioning and approval boundaries
  • Residual risk, open points, review and escalation

Your result

Your site security plan records assets and responsibilities. The timing comparison shows whether detection, delay and the available response fit together.

Prerequisites

Basic knowledge of security or risk management. For your own case, you need information about a site, its uses, critical processes and existing controls. If this information is missing or confidential, use an anonymised case or a course case.

Format and approach

Planned as five to six hours of self-paced study with templates, a continuous case and self-checks with explanations.

Planned learning time: 5–6 hours
