In light of the violence that has occurred in the United States over the last several years in workplaces, schools, hospitals, theaters, concerts, and in so many places where we live and enjoy our lives, we have come to understand the importance of safety and security.
We now expect—and demand—more from employers, landlords, venues, and each other. Security is important in every place everywhere, including your home, and is a critical priority for every successful organization. Whether you’re in the corporate world, healthcare, higher education, public service, or some other industry, your security environment can also be a selling point to attract top talent and keep valuable employees. And when security is at a best practice based level and you showcase it as an important part of your culture, people know you care about them.
You can do a lot to prioritize security at your organization to keep people safe by starting at the beginning—with a strategy.
A comprehensive security assessment establishes a baseline for your security program. It tells you what you currently have in place to protect your people, property, assets, and brand. An assessment helps you understand not only what you have but also what you need to create and implement a holistic security strategy.
To conduct your customized assessment, The Lake Forest Group uses a methodology based on years of implementing best practices at the United States Secret Service, the NBA, Fortune 500 companies, corporate headquarters, hospitals, schools and universities, manufacturing plants, industrial sites, and organizations of all sizes and industries. We complete a comprehensive and objective evaluation of security-related processes, program capabilities, staffing, resources, technologies, funding, and liaison with public and private sector partners to identify gaps in security operations and implementation.
As an integral part of the security assessment, we interview key stakeholders in your organization and collect data. In the comprehensive assessment report, we establish a baseline—this is where your security is today—and then we determine if your technical, physical, procedural, and personnel security measures are working the way you want them to, gauge how well they are working together, and offer strategic considerations for you to implement to protect your people and promote a safe workplace.
