This framework is integrated into all of your corporate processes at every level of business to ensure risks are accounted for; we assist in building security as a part of your company culture. We are able to do this, because we excel at understanding our clients security needs and create unique and specialized programs for your organization.

Risk Management Consulting

Let’s face it: there is a risk in everything we do, from getting out of bed and potentially stumping your toe to crossing a busy street. At Lady Askari we provide risk management solutions as part of our holistic approach to security management.. Our consultants help customers create a secure work environment that allows employees to focus on their areas of operation.

Our recommendations are based on international best practices, ensuring compliance with local laws and regulations, while also providing realistic, innovative solutions to reduce or control risks in order for you to succeed in your business.

Our Risk Managers are available to come into your organization and conduct a gap analysis to assess and develop a road-map for your organization or security department. Have a project with unique security risks? One of our risk managers can help to ensure that plans are developed with security in mind from anywhere in the planning stage. If you do not budget properly for your security needs, then you can end up spending a lot more as an afterthought or worse, not have the appropriate security measures in place. If you do find yourself in this situation, we have experience in project management and can assist in getting your project back on track and reduce the risks; oftentimes also reducing the overall project costs.

SecurAid

We believe that security should be a part of the culture of every organization. One thing we have noticed is that for some non-profit organizations, security is often not a priority due to budget constraints or a culture of “we are not a target” (#NotATarget). SecurAid is a service focused on bringing unique and affordable security solutions to non-profit and humanitarian aid organizations, charities and small community projects.

We can provide in-house solutions or train your security focal points in the art of security networking, information collection, analysis and dissemination. We also can assist in the development of your security plans and procedures, making them specific to your organization and environment in which you work. We are here to support you and the good work you do so please ensure to let us know if you are a non-profit or humanitarian organization.

Security Risk Assessments

Understanding risk is complex and without having a true understanding of the specific risks your organization faces, you play a risky guessing game trying to mitigate those risks. Lady Askari’s approach to security risks assessments is based on international best practices and ISO 31000 Risk Management Framework.

We not only provide a comprehensive risk assessment to your organization, but we also work with your various business units to help understand the risks they face and come up with practical and realistic solutions to mitigate those risks. Security risks, whether physical or digital, do not come neatly packaged in an off-the-shelf box, neither should the mitigation solutions.

Our approach does not stop once we hand the report over to you, as we believe that risk is ever-changing and by the time your organization reads the report, the risk might have changed. So we offer a continuous assessment approach through which we maintain a database of organizational risks and continually update the organization based on changes in the external and internal environment.

Our Lady Askari’s have a vast amount of experience in the collection and analysis of information that focuses on the digital, physical, political, technical, operational and community elements of risk. We are the regional experts in providing security risk assessments to our customers. No matter that type, level, or the geographical location of the assessment required, we are there for you.
