United Security Incorporated offered these 7 New Year's Resolutions for building security:

1. Get a Security Risk Assessment

If you want to improve your building’s security but you’re not sure how, the best way to start is to get a security risk assessment. A professional security company will evaluate your current security system and suggest improvements that can be made. In addition to updating your system, a security risk assessment can help suggest the best surveillance camera placement for maximum coverage and other small changes that will make a big difference.

2. Install an Access Control System

Access control is a great way to improve a building’s security. It will give you the ability to control who enters your building. Each employee will have their own keycard that grants them access, ensuring that non-employees cannot enter your building without permission. In addition to controlling access, the system will also help you keep track of everyone that enters the building and when, which will be very useful in the event of a security breech.

3. Hire Private Security Officers

For added security, you might consider hiring security officers for your building. Security officers will deter threats and are well trained to handle any threats that might occur. They are also useful for monitoring surveillance equipment and operating access control systems. Private security officers are a great resource for emergency planning and can provide direction and support in the case of an emergency.

4. Update Your Security System

Security systems are constantly advancing. If your system hasn’t been updated in a few years, chances are it’s out of date. If you’re using an old system, your building could be at risk. Not only could it be lacking the latest security features, but it could also be slow and underperforming. Updating your system is essential to keeping your building safe and secure.
