In developing a risk management strategy, one of the primary tactics recommended by industry specialists and consultants is to choose and implement physical security measures that will lessen the likelihood of enabling individuals to exploit any vulnerability that could lead to a loss. While operational and procedural measures are a necessary and valuable element of the overall strategy, it’s the physical security technology that can demonstrably add an extra layer of protection for personnel, property and facilities, etc. in the fight against the threat of unauthorized entry, theft, sabotage and other illegal or criminal acts.

Of all the security measures that can be implemented in an organization’s physical security strategy, the systematic control of locks and keys is certainly one of the most important. Without a formal key control plan, facilities and/or security management risk placing the premises, its occupants and assets in a vulnerable position — regardless of how many high tech security tools might be in place. Knowing the identity of authorized key holders, which keys they have or have access to and when they were used is all essential information needed to help ensure a safe and secure environment.

Whether it’s a hospital or a federal office building; a university or a casino; a retail shopping mall or a library; a safe and secure environment in a public place is something we almost always take for granted. We know that video surveillance cameras are in place to monitor and alert authorities of any suspicious behavior or of developing critical situations. We know that uniformed security guards are patrolling the facility. We can see fire alarm boxes prominently mounted throughout the facility and panic bars on doors. What we may not know or see however, is that behind the scenes there are often as many, if not more, security solutions in place to help ensure the safety and security of people, assets and premises.
