We have access to some of the most comprehensive terrorism and political violence datasets available and utilize the latest data mining and social media analytics to detect incidents. This data is used to conduct threat assessments which identifies threat actors and assesses which risk scenarios could feasibly affect our client.
‍
Risk analysis then ensures that the risk scenarios identified have been evaluated in comparison to the nature of the client’s assets to be protected. The final step, risk evaluation, assesses the likelihood of a risk materialising based on threat intent and capability, target attractiveness and protection measures in place.

A robust risk-led security strategy considers how the following areas should interact to provide ongoing protection:

• Intelligence/community information collection and analysis.
• Physical security measures.
• Mobile security measures, close protection and journey management.
• Emergency response plans.
• Evacuation planning.
• Technical security measures.
• Liaison with military and security forces.

We have worked intimately with clients across dozens of sectors and in over 80 countries, to help them prepare for, respond to and recover from natural disasters, supply chain disruption, cyberattacks, conflict and terrorism. We can support clients with:

• Crisis management plans and decision support materials that can be deployed ‘out of the box’, so you can act quickly and responsibly to protect your organisation when things go wrong.
  
• Pandemic response plans that use granular key risk indicators and intelligence sources to provide early warning.
  
• Evacuation planning and validation for hostile environments or specific crisis scenarios.
  
• Continuity planning to understand what is most valuable to our clients, and develop continuity strategies that ensure organisations can recover quickly whenever or however these assets are disrupted.
