Guidepost Solutions: A Comprehensive Approach to Security

In the age where the transmission of information can happen almost instantly, technology is creating new and more efficient means to address the security-related issues faced by companies. This unchecked, hyper-speed information exchange is creating an increase in criminal activities due to unforeseen vulnerabilities in both physical and cyber defenses that can be exploited. In the corporate world, companies transitioning to the cloud desire robust cyber security solutions to secure their information and assets, while the physical access to their offices requires the integration of access control and video surveillance systems, communicating to a centralized security operations center (SOC), actively monitoring, and responding to, security events throughout the company. Guidepost Solutions provides industry expertise and strategic guidance to address critical security, safety, and communication needs, specializing in global investigations, compliance and security, and technology consulting services and solutions for a diverse range of industries.

“We conduct investigations, oversee activities, mitigate risks, and remediate security, safety, and communication concerns in a manner that considers the building environment, staffing, and company procedures and protocols,” explains John Torres, COO of the Security and Technology Consulting (STC) practice and president of the Federal practice at Guidepost Solutions. The company has a global team of experienced security and technology consultants and experts with architecture, technology, engineering, and federal law enforcement backgrounds. Their focus is employing product and technology diagnostic solutions to ensure a client’s security needs are addressed during all phases of work from consultation, to design, through implementation and construction management. The company takes a holistic approach to security coupled with a comprehensive and proprietary risk assessment method to determine each client’s unique needs and challenges to deliver the analysis, information, and guidance necessary for a thorough security risk management plan. “Clients can be certain that Guidepost Solutions evaluates each facility’s capabilities and realistic threat potential to deliver the most cost-effective industry best solutions that meet their security requirements,” states Torres.
