Threat, Vulnerability & Risk Assessment

A useful TVRA gives management a defensible basis for deciding which risks matter, how effective existing controls are and which mitigation measures should be prioritised. It is more than a checklist or a list of security equipment.

Why this matters

Risk Assessment That Prioritises Credible Exposure

Establish a defensible basis for deciding which risks matter and what to address first.

Clients may need to understand where physical-security exposure exists before changing controls, investing in technology, planning a development or reviewing an existing programme.

A TVRA is a focused risk-assessment activity. It is distinct from the broader security master-planning process, although its findings can inform one.

Method

Assessment methodology

Agree scope, risk criteria and critical assets; develop credible scenarios; review site layout, boundaries, personnel movements, guarding, CCTV, access control, emergency procedures and relevant operational practices; evaluate consequence and likelihood under the agreed methodology; then identify treatment options, risk owners and residual exposure.

  1. 01

    Establish site, asset and operating context

  2. 02

    Identify credible threat scenarios

  3. 03

    Review vulnerabilities and existing controls

  4. 04

    Consider consequences and risk

  5. 05

    Recommend proportionate improvements

  6. 06

    Reassess risk when changes are made

Frequently asked questions

Frequently Asked Questions.

What does a TVRA include?

A TVRA defines the assessment scope, critical assets, credible scenarios, vulnerabilities, existing controls, transparent risk ratings and prioritised treatment options.

How does a TVRA differ from detailed design?

A TVRA establishes the risk basis and required outcomes. Detailed design translates those outcomes into coordinated zoning, systems, procedures and acceptance requirements.

When should a facility be reassessed?

Reassessment is appropriate when there are material changes to the facility, assets, operating model, threat context, incidents or planned protective measures.
