Security Management Services

Boardroom@Crisis BV (B@C) helps clients prepare for and manage security challenges through advice, seminars, online learning and presentations. While as our name implies we think from the leadership level outward, we help all kinds of organizations at every level.

B@C provides three Security Management Services:

1. Advice
2. Seminars
3. Presentations

We assist clients from companies, associations and international institutions to governments improve their ability to manage security threats, whether these endanger people, assets, operations, data or other interests. We are a group of highly experienced advisors with areas of expertise ranging from common crime, organized crime and terrorism to espionage, physical and digital. We have learned and practiced our profession against tough opponents in difficult conditions, which helps us properly contextualize, judge and calibrate what is needed to meet your requirements.

We work risk-based in serving you and always consider the bigger picture: structuring, shaping, reinforcing and reviewing security processes so that things work properly, from policy all the way down to procedures. As appropriate, we use a range of industry standards, concepts and frameworks from ISO to ASIS, BSI, ANSI, NIST and NEN to help guide our thinking. And, we benchmark a lot, with reference points for different projects ranging from corporate to police, military and non-government organizations.

We regularly participate in international professional forums like ASIS International, OSAC, AIPC and Everbridge learning events to contribute to the field, help develop standards and learn from our peers. We are committed to a rigorous, ethical approach to our work.

Advice

We can advise you using formats ranging from written reports, workshops, webinars, and briefings to one-on-one counseling. Our advisory services principally concern:

• Audits
• Procedures
• VIP Security
• Security Design
• Security Intelligence
• Event & Travel Security
• Threat & Risk Assessment
• Policy, Strategy & Leadership
• Enterprise Security Risk Management

You can find an example of such good practice guidance (now a public document made for the global convention center association AIPC in 2019 on managing terrorist and other acute threats) via this link: Good Practice Managing Critical Threats

As part of our services, B@C offers security issue crisis support to select clients facing urgent challenges. This usually entails delivering on-the-spot or near-term advice and expert network engagement to find rapid solutions to mitigate unfolding security risks.

Seminars

We help clients address security issues with interactive security management seminars or workshops on a variety of topics. Crafting unique half-day to day-long programs of the highest quality, we focus on creating useful, energizing experiences that offer immediate practical pay-offs for your attendees and your organization’s risk management. This often involves a mix of knowledge-sharing, insight creation, experience-based learning using mini-crisis games, and feedback and opinion polling. Most workshops involve security department teams who wish to sharpen their understanding of particular issues such as espionage, terrorism, insider threats, COVID-19, security crisis management, or lone actors.

Services are offered in English and Dutch.

Assuring You Quality Service Delivery

To ensure high quality service delivery for our clients we apply principles from or embodied in the ISO 20700 Guidelines for Management Consulting Services, the International Association of Project Managers, and EY Quality Engagement.

To ensure effective adult learning techniques are applied in each client training, workshop, seminar and presentation we use techniques developed, taught and endorsed by the Association for Talent Development, the Association of College and University Educators, and the International Association of Facilitators.

Presentations

B@C provides engaging, customized presentations to enhance awareness, generate new insight, and outline the strategic and practical dimensions of security risk drivers, including for the international Speakers Academy agency. This requires a strong grasp of the issues at hand, original thinking, experience, fresh data and skilled delivery. Glenn Schoen and his associates regularly give keynote presentations highly rated for their freshness, content, engagement level and overall value.
