Barriers to entry – can I get in?

We are pleased to announce the Wolverhampton Branch are now active once again and looking forward to welcoming you to their next event.

Physical security is the protection of personnel, hardware, software, networks and data from physical actions and events that could cause serious loss and damage to a company and its brand. Physical security describes measures that are designed to deny unauthorized access to facilities, equipment, and resources and to protect personnel and property from damage. It involves the use of multiple layers of interdependent systems designed to protect persons and property.

This event aims to inform you about physical security measures every company should have in place and challenge procurement perceptions of adequacy, quality and cost.
