How To Calculate The ROI On Your Security

Every decision you make regarding the security budget of your business will ultimately play a crucial factor when its time to count your earnings and build a new yearly budget. Unfortunately, working out what is a justifiable amount isn’t as easy as using the often-mentioned method of return/benefit – investment/cost = ROI.

Below are a number of alternatives that might help you to calculate any security solutions as part of your overall budget.

  • ALE – annualized loss expectancy:

Locks on doors, windows and other entryways into your property serve as the base level of security for some 90% of all businesses. They’re the last line of defense. They are, however, often not enough in the modern world for larger scale businesses and more advanced security systems are finding their way into buildings more often as time goes by. Of course, monthly or yearly costs will increase with monitored security systems so their value needs to be considered in terms of expected loss.

As it’s impossible to apply the normal paradigm of gain vs. cost when considering a security solution for your business, considering the expected loss in the event of a security breach may help provide an easier to understand viewpoint.

Consider the types and frequency of various security risks that tend to occur in your area i.e. burglaries, thefts, in-house security hazards etc. If they are common then it is fair to consider that the perceived risk is higher and advanced security is likely to pay dividend in prevention. To a similar effect, if the frequency is lower but the actual loss associated with these risks is likely to be high, then investing in security could again save you money.

  • Predicting loss due to security breaches:

A reliable and certified professional locksmith that is familiar with the local area will be most able to perform a security audit for your business. The results will give you details of everything important you should consider when performing an analysis of your security needs. Once you have come to a conclusion with regards to your expected annual loss due to theft or other security breaches, you are in a much more informed position to decide on the level of spending on security.

    Our Tips For Getting The Best Locksmith Services In Miami FL:

    We truly care about your security. Keeping you, your family and your most valuable possessions safe is why we are in business. However, whenever you are looking to hire a residential locksmith service, here are some valuable tips to make the right choice.

    FAQ

    HOW DO I KNOW WHETHER MY MIAMI LOCKSMITH IS CERTIFIED?
    When a Miami locksmith completes their official application process, they are issued with a Locksmith ID car. Locksmiths in Miami are required to display this card at all times when performing any services, regardless of the location.
    HOW LONG WILL A LOCKSMITH TAKE TO ARRIVE?
    When you’re working with the Quickly Locksmith Miami team, you can expect someone to arrive at your exact location within 15 minutes. This ensures we can get you back into your home or car as soon as possible.
    WHAT DOES A CERTIFICATION GUARANTEE?
    Your certified Miami locksmith’s work comes with a complete warranty for your locks, your property (doors/ hallways, etc.), and of course your well-being. If anything happens you share no liability, and your locks & security systems are 100% insured.
    CAN A MIAMI LOCKSMITH OPEN ALL LOCKS?
    A locksmith that has the right tools and years of experience can open almost any lock. If that’s not an option, the lock can always be replaced. Either way, your home and valuables will be safe and secure.
    CAN AN AUTO LOCKSMITH CREATE A SPARE KEY AT MY LOCATION?
    When you are locked out of your car, the last thing you want to do is arrange a ride to a locksmith shop. The Quickly Locksmith Miami mobile unit will not only meet you at your location but also help you with a replacement car key on the spot.
    DO I NEED THE ORIGINAL KEY TO MAKE A KEY COPY?
    Not necessarily. If your original key has been lost or is damaged, a Miami locksmith can use a code cutter to identify the depth of grooves in a lock’s key code. This information can then be used to create a new key.
