Frequently Asked Questions
A physical security audit is an on-site inspection of your premises that checks how well your perimeter, access control, surveillance, guards and emergency procedures protect people and assets. It identifies gaps and recommends how to close them.
The terms are often used interchangeably. A site security assessment usually focuses on identifying threats and risks for a specific location, while a physical security audit checks existing controls against a structured checklist. A BIS audit covers both.
It depends on the size and complexity of the site. A single office or residential complex needs less time on site than a large factory or a multi-location audit. We confirm the timeline after the pre-audit briefing.
Once a year is a good baseline. Audit sooner after a security incident, a change of security vendor, an expansion or layout change, or a shift in local risk.
