"In this post 9-11 era, Maricor Technologies, Inc. recognizes that managing security risk and mitigating the threat of terrorist attacks against facilities and buildings are challenging tasks," said Jim Kavanagh, Chief Marketing Officer of MTI. "To assist organizations in meeting this significant societal challenge, MTI has designed a powerful solution for effective Security Governance which simplifies the assessment, analysis, and risk-management decision making processes."
In order to create a secure built environment, numerous security factors must be considered. MTI's Security Governance assessment process identifies the best and most cost-effective mitigation measures for a building's unique security needs. The initial assessment process identifies the value of a building's assets that need to be protected. The second step involves the undertaking of a threat assessment wherein the threat or hazard is identified, defined, and quantified. The third step involves a vulnerability assessment to evaluate the potential susceptibility of critical facility assets against a broad range of identified threats or hazards. The vulnerability assessment is the over-arching bridge in the methodology between threat, asset value, and the resultant level of risk. The risk assessment analyzes the threat, asset value, and vulnerability to ascertain the level of risk for each critical asset against each applicable threat. The risk assessment provides a relative risk profile for the facility and its critical assets. High-risk combinations of assets with specific threats and identified vulnerabilities allow prioritization of resources to implement mitigation measures. MTI's Security Governance solution delivers material benefits for organizations including:
