When it comes to protecting your facility, a one-size-fits-all approach doesn’t work. Every site is different, and so are the threats. That’s why a site security assessment is such a critical first step in designing an effective security solution.

At Prosegur, we’ve developed a five-step assessment process to identify vulnerabilities, evaluate security infrastructure, and build strategies tailored to your organization’s unique risk profile. Here's how it works:

 

1. Perimeter and Access Point Evaluation

A Prosegur agent providing remote security monitoring services.

We start from the outside in—because your perimeter is your first line of defense. Our team inspects fencing, gates, barriers, and lighting, while assessing visibility and entry flow for vehicles and pedestrians. The goal? Determine how easily someone could access your property—intentionally or unintentionally.

 

 

2.) Entry, Exit & Lobby Control

Prosegur agents providing remote security monitoring services from the security operations center.

Next, we assess your front-facing security protocols. From guard posts and badge readers to delivery procedures and visitor policies, we look at how people enter your building, how they’re screened, and what systems are in place to control access. If there’s a weak link, we’ll find it—and help you fix it.

 

 

3. Technology Coverage Assessment

Even the best guards need backup. That’s why we map out your surveillance and security tech—checking for camera blind spots, access control system gaps, alarm functionality, and how your physical and electronic systems integrate. Our aim: uncover areas where your tech is working—and where it’s not.

 

 

4. Interior & High-Value Area Walkthrough

Once inside, we evaluate mission-critical zones like server rooms, storage areas, executive offices, and emergency exits. We examine asset protection protocols and identify internal vulnerabilities that may go unnoticed—such as shrinkage risk, inadequate access separation, or unsecured high-value areas.

 

 

5. Emergency Readiness & Response

Last but never least: response. We review your emergency procedures and incident readiness. That includes guard response paths, fire and life safety equipment, evacuation plans, and escalation protocols. Security isn’t just about prevention—it’s about preparation.
