20 Oct The Benefits of Business Security
Crime can strike anywhere. No matter how progressive a workplace is, with plenty of initiatives aimed at improving employees’ morale and productivity, or giving a shot in the arm to the general organizational health that ensures basic workplace privileges, a corporation can still be a target, from both inside and out.
The latest statistics regarding ransomware alone — the malicious software meant to hold sensitive data hostage until the company pays an exorbitant sum — are staggering. In 2021 alone:
- Ransoms increased in size by over 80% from previous years.
- Ransomware attacks have increased over 60%, year-over-year.
- New variants of ransomware are being created at a rate of nearly 50%, year-over-year.
- A business’s data will be held for ransom every 14 seconds, somewhere in the world.
With numbers like these (and many more ringing in our ears), it becomes all too clear why it is vital to secure the services of one of the West’s experienced security companies. CBI Security, for instance, has a robust branch of corporate security.
Building a Perfect Shell of Security
Ransomware is merely one of the ways in which companies are targeted each year. For more traditional threats, CBI, naturally, has a host of skilled security guards on staff who can provide mobile security morning, noon, and night at your facility. While we can definitely provide warm bodies to secure the grounds and monitor personnel comings and goings on a daily basis, our team is adept at every aspect of security for your business which includes video surveillance and patrol.
Security Evaluation
In the world of business, there are few things that can be reliably counted on. We can provide two of them:
- Bad guys will always try something new, which can be hard to keep up with unless you’re a professional
- Bad guys will always try again.
Knowing that a security company’s work is never done, our team at CBI will evaluate your firm’s current security protocols against the latest threats of the day to ensure that your data and your personnel are kept safe. Whether you need to retain a bodyguard for a VIP member of the board or install better video surveillance, we can help.
Our main goal when we carry out these evaluations is two-fold: fill in the gaps of security where threats could come in and then integrate the full spectrum of security measures across the entirety of your organization. This way, everyone will feel a similar sense of responsibility while also having the same set of tools to make a difference.
Expanding Your Threat Response Team
Going as far back as the earliest civilizations, potential aggressors would be deterred from attacking a city if the standing army was too formidable. We want to take a similar approach to your security. This doesn’t mean, however, that we advocate for deputizing any Tom, Dick, or Harry with a clipboard in your office. Instead, we want to make sure each person is trained to spot a threat and deal with it safely.
Trained personnel can be a great asset for any company, since — as we said above — safety is everyone’s responsibility. When your employees are:
- Educated about what threats are out there
- Familiar with your corporation’s security protocols
- Aware of changing procedures
- Adept at spotting an issue and reporting it
That’s when they will compliment the armed and unarmed bodyguards and security guards you have retained from CBI Security, and threats will be deterred.
CBI operates across the Western United States and boasts some of the finest officers in the private security industry. With robust training and extensive experience, all that we have to bear on keeping you, your staff, and your company’s various assets safe will be available to you. Call us today for a consultation.
