Physical Security
the protection of
personnel, hardware, software, networks and
data from physical actions and events that
could cause serious loss or damage to an
enterprise, agency or institution. This includes
protection from fire, flood, natural disasters,
burglary, theft, vandalism and terrorism.
Three Important Components
• access control
• surveillance
• testing
• The internet of things (IoT) is widening the
sphere of physical security as smart
devices connected to business systems
via the internet may be located outside of
established secure perimeters
• Security is crucial to any office or
facility, but understanding how to get
started in this field can be difficult
Physical Security
• The best, most viable physical security strategies make
use of both technology and specialized hardware to
achieve its safety goals. You will need to protect your
assets from intruders, internal threats, cyber attacks,
accidents and natural disasters, which in turn requires a
mix of technology and in-person monitoring that requires
careful planning and placement of security staff and
other tactics. For your preventive measures and
countermeasures to be effective, you also need to
introduce a security perimeter, the size and scope of
which may vary depending on your specific needs and
possible threats to your facility. Physical security bundles
many needs together, so make sure you consider your
space as a whole, not as separate parts.
