Security Consulting

As a global leader in safety and security consulting, AESG delivers comprehensive solutions for the built environment, safeguarding critical assets, infrastructure, and public health from terrorism, sabotage, and crime. In April 2024, AESG proudly acquired SGW, a trusted name in security consultancy since its incorporation in 2011. This strategic acquisition merges SGW’s long-established reputation and over a decade of proven expertise with AESG’s multidisciplinary approach and global reach. With more than 20 years of combined experience, our team integrates advanced engineering, scientific principles, and practical strategies to deliver innovative and robust security solutions tailored to the unique needs of each client.

Comprehensive Security Risk Assessments

Our security consultancy services adhere to the principles of ISO 31000, ensuring a structured and effective approach to risk management. We begin with comprehensive assessments of credible threats, site-specific vulnerabilities, and asset criticality, applying ISO 31000's framework to identify, analyse, and evaluate risks. These evaluations provide the foundation for a tailored Security Risk Mitigation Plan, guiding clients through informed decisions on risk acceptance, avoidance, reduction, or transfer.

Aligned with the ISO 31000 risk management process, our methodology incorporates continuous monitoring and review to ensure resilience in the face of evolving threats. We collaborate closely with our clients to develop a cohesive Asset Protection Program and a comprehensive Security Strategy that seamlessly integrates with operational, design, and management frameworks. By embedding these standards into our services, we deliver robust and adaptable solutions that enhance security, reduce uncertainties, and support long-term strategic goals.

Integrated Security Solutions

AESG delivers modern integrated security solutions by seamlessly unifying physical, electronic, and operational security measures into a comprehensive and cohesive strategy. Our expert team applies a multidisciplinary approach to cover a wide range of security disciplines, crafting solutions that are designed to deter, detect, delay, and deny unauthorised access to critical assets.

We leverage the latest advanced security technologies, including AI-driven analytics, IoT-enabled devices, and cloud-based management systems, alongside proven methodologies such as risk-based planning and Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) principles. These cutting-edge approaches ensure real-time threat detection, streamlined access control, and robust perimeter protection, delivering optimal, scalable, and future-ready security for our clients.

Collaborative Approach to Security Design

At AESG, we recognise that effective security design is achieved through a collaborative approach. Our team works closely with architects, engineers, site managers, and other key stakeholders to ensure that security measures are seamlessly integrated into every phase of a project—from initial master planning to construction and ongoing operations.

By embedding security as a core element of the built environment, we align design and functionality to create solutions that are both robust and aesthetically harmonious. Our approach ensures that security systems are not an afterthought but a fundamental aspect of the planning, construction, and operational lifecycle. This collaborative method enhances efficiency, mitigates risks, and reduces costly retrofits.
