Any organization is susceptible to uncertainties and physical threats at any time; even the most disciplined and efficient organizations may experience an event that impacts the facility. In fact, there can be a perfect storm for a facility to run smoothly, and one event—fire, unauthorized access, system failure, or structural collapse—can significantly disrupt operations and harm people and assets. Organizations must invest in their facilities with professional input and systematic evaluations to mitigate some likelihood of loss. DSP Consultants serves the needs of businesses throughout Saudi Arabia to assist with a range of security vulnerabilities and threat assessments with our specialized Security Threat & Risk Assessment Consultancy Services, advising and identifying physical security vulnerabilities, assessing exposures to threats, and strengthening physical security protection measures in any built environment.

DSP Consultants is known for elevating the security posture of organizations, residential complexes, educational institutions, and commercial facilities with mitigation measures through physical ...
... security systems and enhanced safety assessments. In the process, the entire facility is assessed—assets inside, layouts, entry points, and operational flows—where possible, to uncover what physical threats, risks, or weaknesses are present. And when weaknesses or threats are identified, the consultants go one step further to provide logical advice and mitigation strategies to the clients, with involvement, where necessary, by security personnel on the ground, who are experienced in managing and controlling and/or minimizing further risks.

Expertise in Security Threat & Risk Assessment

At DSP Consultants, we offer a comprehensive range of security threat & risk consultancy services tailored to meet the unique needs of organizations in Saudi Arabia. Our security consultants help clients find security weaknesses and evaluate threats so they can provide actionable recommendations to boost their facility's overall security status.

Our security risk assessment process adheres to industry-leading standards such as ISO 31000 and the guidelines established by the High Commission for Industrial Security (HCIS) in Saudi Arabia. Organizations can assess their security risks and discover system weaknesses through this organized method.

Our Systematic Approach to Security Threat & Risk Assessment

DSP Consultants utilizes a set of defined methodological steps to ensure every assessment is both accurate and thorough and meets the Saudi Arabian regulatory requirements.

1. Identification of Assets at Risk

Before presenting in clear terms to clients what those 'assets at risk' are, we need to understand what matters to the client organization—from people and property to operations, reputation, and more—and we force our consultants to investigate those assets.

2. Risk & Vulnerability Assessment

Potential threats and vulnerabilities are then assessed against potential financial, personnel, and reputational impacts. The process includes evaluation of existing operational and physical security measures to assess vulnerabilities and weaknesses.

3. Security Gap Analysis

Having established an understanding of the client organization's threat profile, we then assess the client's "security posture" against the HCIS and other applicable standards. The extent of the difference between actual and expected security performance is what justifies the next steps.

4. Risk/Vulnerabilities Resilience

With all gathered information, our security consultants will help design resilience plans that allow the facility to adjust to unanticipated interruptions, thus enhancing long-term capabilities.

5. Security Master Plan

The Security Master Plan compiles all findings into a single cohesive document that contains detailed reports, drawings, and illustrated risk mitigation strategies specific to the facility.

6. Review Document & Assurance

In our final step, we will integrate interdependencies across all identified risks to ascertain the overall risk priority. We will make concise recommendations to management to make the final decision.
