Straight answers on physical security.

Practical, plain-English writing on physical security for Northern California facilities: what assessments cost, how to choose a consultant, and what California's security regulations actually require of you.

No product pitch, because there is no product to pitch. Just the questions real facility, risk, and operations leaders actually ask.

Common questions

Is anything here legal or compliance advice?

No. Everything on this site, including articles that discuss laws like SB 553 or AWIA, is general information about the physical security side of these topics. It is not legal advice, not a compliance determination, and not a substitute for your own counsel or the relevant agency. Wittner Security Consultants does not certify or guarantee compliance with any regulation.

Who writes these?

They are published by Wittner Security Consultants and grounded in Paul Wittner's decades of physical security experience. The focus is practical: what these topics mean for a real facility, written plainly, without the product pitch that usually accompanies "free" security content.

Reading because of a real facility?
