@goldandbrown4 @HawkTalkPod @hawthornzone Who really knows. Some folks were saying it was all pre-agreed weeks ago yet its still not done.

Many business owners wonder if their security is up to scratch.

Intruders, threats to staff, and natural catastrophes can cost time, money and legal issues.

We begin with capability and visibility (how well you’ve defined all the threats). Visit the website to learn more.

Security is never just about one thing, highlighting the need for very specific solutions.

Avoid guesswork. If there's one piece of money-saving advice we can offer, it's to engage a professional security risk assessment together with tailored, measurable strategies.

Unfortunately, when it comes to combatting security breaches, there's no such thing as a one-size- fits-all solution. For real-life examples of how we're helping businesses with these vexing issues, check out a range of recent case studies on our website, Matryx Consulting.

“I don’t know” is the last thing a client wants to hear.

We've done over 700 risk security assessments. But on some occasions we have to say: "I don’t know."

An industry colleague summed it up perfectly. He said: "We don’t get to decide what a deterrent is – the bad guys do."

Smart technology in security management is more than CCTV. In fact, it has nothing to do with CCTV and everything to do with being able to predict risk, instead of simply responding to it.

Early warnings in #securitymanagement is about identifying "sparks" before they happen. Otherwise, you're:
❌ simply responding to incidents instead of preventing them
❌ vulnerable to the same incidents happening again
❌ placing risk on your people and property portfolio.

In Australia, maintaining a 24/7 security presence can amount to well over $300,000 a year – and a lot more for larger sites needing multiple guards.

Independent advice in #securitymanagement is about adding capability, experience and knowledge to help you make informed decisions.
Without it, you're making crucial security decisions with only part of the picture, exposing the organisation to the same or even worse risks.

[Luke Percy-Dove @MatryxConsultng]

It's easy to be an "ostrich" when it comes to security risk management.
With no formal structures, limited resources to deal with incidents and lack of visibility of day-to-day risks, you're courting what the industry calls "uncontrolled risk".

Time to refresh your standard operating procedures?

The nature of security threats is rapidly evolving. Managing your emergency procedures as well as the safety of your staff, contractors and visitors has never been more important.

Drug activity, rough sleepers and violence posed a risk to council staff and residents.

Most organisations fit into one of four categories in the way they manage risk and security.

Capability and visibility are the two key factors here. Where do you sit on this chart?

Damage to a business’s reputation can be extremely difficult to repair.

Even when serious, security-related events are – for the most part – unlikely to occur, they do need to be considered.
