Arup has been practising security consultancy since at least 1978. Arup Security Consulting is an award-winning specialist team within Arup providing a risk-led service using a combination of threat and risk assessment analysis, resilience review including blast engineering and chemical/biological attack mitigation, and security planning. Our staff have backgrounds in the police, military and client organisations, multidisciplinary building design teams and the security industry. This way, we have a unique insight into security and the needs of the rest of the design team.
Our specialists work in areas such as blast engineering, electronic security systems, control and data centre design, systems integration, information security and corporate resilience. We work closely with our clients to ensure that the tolerable level of risk is understood by all sides and engineer our advice and solutions to achieve that precise level of risk.
