Introduction

Security control is the foundation of any effective protection strategy. Even when security measures are already in place, control remains essential to ensure that those measures function as intended and deliver real protection. A thorough Security Risk Assessment provides this level of control by identifying risks, analysing vulnerabilities, and strengthening every layer of a property beyond just physical hardware. Through independent investigation and practical insight, it becomes possible to reduce opportunities for crime and improve the overall effectiveness of a security system. At Alwinco, our approach is built on the principle of always being in control, combining years of crime analysis, real case experience, and reverse crime understanding to create practical and achievable security solutions. This process not only supports prevention but also ensures that clear procedures, evidence gathering, and response planning are in place should a security breach occur.

SECURITY CONTROL IS KEY

Even if you have security measures in place, security control is vital to ensuring that your security is successful. The Security Risk Assessment will ultimately provide you with this power.
By conducting an extensive physical security investigation that encompasses various layers and goes beyond the onsite hardware, we can identify and audit the risks and opportunities for potential crimes. We can then take preventive steps to significantly reduce or even eliminate your chances of becoming a victim of crime. Additionally, information provided through your security system allows for optimal physical security control.

After extensive analysis of crime scenes and interviews with criminals and victims, Alwinco’s founder, Andre Mundell, has developed a unique approach to crime and security. Our expertise in reverse crime engineering allows us to offer proactive crime prevention advice, strengthen property defences, and conduct thorough Security Risk Assessments to identify weaknesses and suggest achievable security improvements.

Answering the Question: WHAT IF my security fails?

Survival, Safety and Evidence

In control

Being in control does not only mean being able to prevent crime but also knowing which steps need to be followed in the event that you are targeted by the criminal element. This is when your security fails and safety needs to kick in.
The Security Risk Assessment covers this and additionally provides you with the means to gather evidence after a crime occurs. You can use this for investigating and prosecuting the guilty parties. This crucial factor is often overlooked.

Security Control = Independent Security Risk Assessment

By conducting an independent security risk assessment on your home or business property, you can rest assured that you will always maintain good security control. We will address all your security needs by providing you with an individual security plan tailored specifically for you.

The Security Plan will inform you in regard to various workable and feasible options to remedy your security. Ultimately, the decision will lie in your hands. Read more on the security risk assessment methodology. 

As independent security risk assessors, our goal is to provide you with knowledge of security control.

A strong, solid foundation

We will base your security on a strong and solid foundation that we can adapt to fit your budget and any time constraints you may have. Additionally, we can manage the rollout of your security system on your behalf, and this includes the tender application process if so required.
