Risk Assessments

Residential Security Assessment

Property security assessment for executive residences, expatriate housing, and diplomatic properties in high-risk cities.

Need a security assessment for your property?

A residential security assessment evaluates whether your home provides adequate protection for you and your family in a high-risk city, and identifies what improvements are needed.

Why residential assessments matter

The residence is where security routines are most predictable and where family members are most likely to be present. In high-risk cities, residential burglary, home invasion, and surveillance of household patterns are documented threats.

Many executive residences in P1 cities have some security measures in place, but they are often insufficient, poorly maintained, or designed by people who understand construction rather than security.

What we assess

The assessment covers the complete security picture: perimeter integrity, gate and access control, guard force capability, CCTV and alarm systems, safe room identification, and the neighbourhood threat profile. We also review household routines for predictability that could be exploited.

What you receive

A written report with findings, risk ratings, and prioritised recommendations. We distinguish between immediate actions (addressing critical vulnerabilities), short-term improvements (upgrades that should be completed within weeks), and longer-term enhancements. The report is accompanied by a briefing with the household and any existing security staff. See our executive protection service and bodyguard hire service for how assessment findings translate into protective coverage.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

We recommend a full reassessment annually, or whenever there is a significant change in the local threat environment, a change in residents, or physical modifications to the property.

Yes. Many executives and expatriates rent properties in high-risk cities. A security assessment before signing a lease can identify whether a property meets your security requirements and what upgrades would be needed.
