Reducing Risk and Enhancing Security Cundall’s team of security consultants provide a comprehensive offering throughout the project lifecycle. We help our clients understand how to mitigate the real-time security threats and risks to their people and business with design, delivery and operational solutions.
By defining security requirements at an early stage, the solutions are not only more innovative and cost-effective, but can also influence the design process to create a safer and more secure environment.
People, property, infrastructure, service, and information assets are potentially vulnerable to a range of security threats that could result in physical, economic or reputational harm.
Our consultants understand that good security requires a performance based approach and an understanding of risk and risk management, to ensure that security solutions are effective.
Cundall provide advice on identifying security threats and risks, and engineering design services to scope any required solutions (both physical and electronic). We ensure that security solutions are realistic and cost-effective. We are the trusted advisors to our clients, ensuring that they operationally manage the security of their business.
Key security objectives can include; keeping people safe, protecting business assets (e.g. property and data), and maintaining business continuity (in the event of a security incident).
We support our clients throughout the security risk management cycle from: • Understanding their security requirements and objectives • Developing appropriate and proportionate security solutions
It is important that security is considered early, to develop the most appropriate and proportionate solutions. Security solutions which are overbearing, can often make users more uncomfortable and aware of security risk.
