INTRODUCTION

After an exhaustive physical survey of the ZAWADI APARTMENTS residential area by a team of our
security experts several vulnerabilities were identified in the security systems, measures and
equipment put in place to secure and protect the area. This report will list all vulnerabilities and risks
identified and recommend mitigations and remedial measures to be put in place for a better and
safer working and living environment

The recommendations are made putting the safety of the residents and their properties first
But also considering the entire property/establishment/facilities BUT also considering the cost of
implementation.

 facility.
Based on the above data DITAN SECURITY SERVICES experts developed a threat assessment matrix
that can be used to determine the type of security required at ZAWADI APARTMENTS.
THREAT/HAZARD SEVERITY PROBABILITY RISK
10=most serious 10=most likely Severity X
1=least serious 1=least likely probability
INTRUSION 5 8 40
PROPERTY THEFT 8 8 64
VANDALISM 6 7 42
BURGLARY 7 7 49
TRESPASS 5 9 45
ATTACKS 9 2 18

PROBALITY of an event is derived from available security data from the facility, police records and
locale history.

SEVERITY is derived from the impact a particular event would have on an individual or the facility.

RISK is determined by multiplying the ratio of severity by that of probability.

CONCLUSION

The vulnerabilities identified in the perimeter wall, Guarding systems, surveillance systems, gates
and access control systems make the ratios for the probability of intrusion, property theft,
vandalism, burglary and trespass very high and urgent remedial measures are called for to mitigate
these vulnerabilities. DITAN SECURITY SERVICES have the right personnel and tech support to
undertake and put in places all recommended systems and hardware.
