CPTED Security assessment

EVALUATE EXISTING OR PLANNED SECURITY MEASURES THAT PROTECT your assets from threats.

CRI can provide you with a comprehensive Security Risk and Vulnerability assessment for your assets, including offices, buildings, or worksites, using the internationally recognized CPTED approach. CRI is a member of the International CPTED Association.


CRI employs a four-phase approach to this assessment, which involves thoroughly understanding the threat environment and security posture of the area under review, encompassing evaluations of Risk, Perimeter, Exterior, and Interior.


Message CRI for pricing, as each assessment is customized to your needs based on your site.

Four Phase CPTED Assessment Approach

 Risk Assessment

The first step in any security assessment is to identify the risks. This includes assessing the likelihood and impact of various threats, such as burglary, theft, vandalism, and terrorism. The risk assessment should also consider the specific assets that require protection, including people, information, and property.


Perimeter Security 

The perimeter of a property is the first line of defense against unauthorized access. CPTED principles can be used to design a perimeter that is both physically secure and visually inviting. Some standard perimeter security measures include:

  • Fences and walls
  • Gates and barriers (Access Control)
  • Lighting
  • CCTV surveillance
  • Vegetation
  • Sightlines


Exterior Security

The exterior of a property should also be designed to deter crime. This includes features such as:

  • Well-maintained buildings and grounds
  • Secure windows and doors
  • Visible security measures, such as CCTV cameras
  • Signage that discourages crime
  • Access Control


Interior Security

The interior of a property should also be secure, with measures such as:

  • Access control
  • Security lighting
  • CCTV surveillance
  • Intrusion detection systems
  • Emergency procedures


CPTED Approach

CPTED is a comprehensive approach to security that focuses on designing and managing the built environment to prevent and reduce crime. The five principles of CPTED are:

  1. Natural access control: This principle seeks to make it difficult for criminals to gain unauthorized access to a property. This can be done by designing features such as fences, walls, and gates that restrict access.
  2. Natural surveillance: This principle seeks to create a sense of openness and visibility that discourages crime. This can be done by designing features such as well-lit areas, windows that overlook public spaces, and landscaping that does not block sightlines.
  3. Territoriality: This principle aims to foster a sense of ownership and responsibility among individuals who utilize a property. This can be achieved by clearly marking property boundaries, providing clear signage, and encouraging individuals to report any suspicious activity.
  4. Activity support (Legitimate activity): This principle seeks to create a sense of activity and vitality that discourages crime. This can be done by providing opportunities for people to gather and interact, such as through community gardens, playgrounds, and other public spaces.
  5. Maintenance: This principle seeks to keep the property clean and well-maintained. This sends a message that the property is cared for and that crime will not be tolerated.
