Our starting point on every security project is to assess the security threats and to create a realistic and cost-effective strategy aimed at reducing the overall risk to an acceptable and manageable level. In identifying threats, we look at every aspect, from petty crime to terrorism, and provide balanced advice based on the reality of the situation. The risks for iconic landmarks in a city, whose high profile makes them a potential target for terrorists, would be very different from those of hospitals, where priorities would be preventing unauthorized access into wards and controlling access to equipment and medical supplies.
