the prevention of risk by taking action or using physical entities to reduce or eliminate
one or more vulnerabilities. Vulnerabilities are weaknesses that can be exploited by an
adversary to gain an asset. They include structural, procedural, electronic, hum and

cost-effective countermeasures are in place Purpose of Security Inspection to
determine compliance of security policies to detect weaknesses in the existing security
measures To assess assets and the probability of risk or the likelihood that loss will take
place

cause of an accident but would be contributory factors for example, soapy water spilled
on the floor
