Layered Security Systems
Security In-Depth
The Layered Security Approach is a Robust Strategy for Protection
The layered security approach is a powerful strategy designed to create an exceptionally effective protective system.
This method is engineered to deter, detect, delay, respond to, and recover from potential security, terrorist, and hybrid threat events.
Known globally as Physical Protection Systems (PPS), these practices are internationally recognised for safeguarding organisations against various threats. To ensure their effectiveness, a methodical and systematic approach is essential.
This involves thoroughly assessing available resources and developing a system that delivers the necessary protection at critical points, especially in areas most vulnerable to attack.

Crafting a Counter-Terrorism Mitigation Strategy: The Power of Layering
When developing a counter-terrorism mitigation strategy for an organisation, it’s crucial to implement protection through multiple security approaches, commonly known as layering.
Layering for protection offers a flexible and adaptable framework, allowing your organisation to respond effectively to evolving security challenges.
This approach equips an organisation with a comprehensive toolkit, enabling the design and implementation of robust counter terrorism measures that stand resilient in the face of emerging threats.

Building a Comprehensive Protective Security System
A robust protective security system is composed of various critical elements that work in harmony to shield an organisation from potential threats.
The implementation of these measures within an organisation’s management structures is influenced by its size and complexity. Larger organisations may require more intricate and tailored mitigation strategies to address the diverse nature of their operations and the range of potential risks they face.
Conversely, micro and small businesses can apply the same core principles but might find it more practical to use a streamlined, catch-all document that covers essential security measures efficiently.
By tailoring these strategies to the specific needs of the organisation, you ensure a comprehensive and effective approach to countering potential threats and vulnerabilities.
