Security Assessments & Physical Penetration Testing UK

Comprehensive Physical Security Assessments for UK Businesses

At On The Case, we understand that proactive security is the best way to protect your business, your assets and your people. Our security assessments and physical penetration testing services identify weaknesses in your premises, procedures and local risk profile before they can be exploited.

Using real-world testing and investigative insight, we assess how resilient your organisation truly is against potential threats — helping you make informed, practical improvements to your physical security.

Our Security Assessment & Penetration Testing Services

Every business faces unique security challenges depending on its size, location and operations. We provide tailored, intelligence-led assessments designed to highlight vulnerabilities and recommend effective, proportionate solutions.

Our services include:

  • Physical penetration testing – controlled testing to identify how easily unauthorised individuals could gain access to your premises

  • Perimeter and access control reviews – assessing doors, gates, locks, fencing and visitor entry systems

  • CCTV and alarm coverage audits – checking field of view, placement, reliability and response procedures

  • Procedural and policy analysis – evaluating visitor management, key control, storage and locking routines

  • Staff awareness and response testing – observing how employees react to unauthorised access attempts or suspicious activity

  • Environmental and location-based risk assessments – identifying vulnerabilities created by lighting, signage, layout or surrounding areas

Geographic and Policing Risk Assessment

Our approach goes beyond your premises. We examine the geographic context of your location, considering factors that can influence your overall security risk:

  • Police response times and quality of service in your local area

  • Geographical vulnerabilities, including access routes, visibility and surrounding land use

  • Local crime trends or patterns relevant to your business type or area

  • Company profile risk, including brand visibility, public exposure or media presence

  • Asset-based threats, considering the value, type and accessibility of items stored on-site

By combining these insights with the results of our physical testing, we provide a clear, evidence-based understanding of how exposed your business is — and what measures can reduce that risk.
