Critical Infrastructure
Independent evaluation of a facility's ability to detect, delay, and respond to an adversary — and a clear, prioritised roadmap to close the gaps that matter most.
Every physical protection system exists to perform three functions well: detect an adversary, delay their progress long enough for a response to arrive, and enable an effective response. A facility with excellent cameras and a slow response force is no more secure than one with no cameras at all.
GTS's vulnerability assessment practice is built around evaluating exactly this balance. Our assessors combine site walkdowns, adversary sequence and path analysis, and — where appropriate — coordinated performance testing to identify the specific paths an adversary could realistically exploit, and which mitigations offer the greatest risk reduction for the investment required.
This work is performed for government, military, and private-sector clients across nuclear, critical infrastructure, and general high-consequence facility categories, scaled to the client's regulatory environment.
Every assessment measures the same three functions, and how well they work together as one system.
Ranking the specific routes an adversary could take, not just reviewing technology in isolation.
A prioritised roadmap, not an undifferentiated list — so the highest-risk gaps get addressed first.
Applied equally to operating facilities and new-build programs still in design.
By the Numbers
What We Deliver
GTS assessments are grounded in the same detection-delay-response framework used across the physical protection industry: we evaluate each layer of a facility's defence-in-depth independently, then assess how the layers function together as an integrated system.
Where a facility already has a defined Design Basis Threat, our assessment is structured directly against it; where one does not yet exist, GTS can support its development as a first step. For facilities still in planning, this same discipline is far cheaper to apply before the building exists — see our Design & Construction Security Advisory service.
