Our Team
Our Team
The strength of our team lies in its deep experience and diverse backgrounds. Our hand-selected professionals come from law enforcement, military, corrections, and private security sectors, each bringing valuable real-world knowledge to every project.
Together, our team brings over 100 years of combined experience in both physical security, IT and cybersecurity, ensuring expert guidance and reliable, proven capability across all areas of protection.
We specialise in supporting growing businesses and organisations that may not have internal security expertise or a dedicated security manager. Our role is to provide strategic advice, guide you through evolving security challenges, and deliver practical, effective solutions that safeguard your people, property, and operations.
History of Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design
While the [link below] provides a summary of CPTED (Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design) on Wikipedia, it’s important to recognise that these principles have existed for thousands of years across different cultures and civilisations.
Historically, cities and villages were designed with natural security in mind—protecting essential resources like water, food, and land from theft or invasion. Features such as moats, castle walls, elevated buildings, rivers, and open clearings are all early examples of CPTED in practice, used to deter hostile tribes or clans from taking control.
In an ideal world, CPTED principles would be considered from the very beginning of any city, business, or home design. However, these concepts are often overlooked during early planning stages. Over time, changes in the environment, urban growth, or social conditions can create new risks—requiring additional controls to be added later.
That’s why regular CPTED audits and inspections are vital. They help ensure your property continues to remain safe and secure, adapting to the evolving landscape while maintaining strong, proactive protection.

If the business is approved to access the program, they will be issued a voucher for a mandatory security audit on the business premises by a registered security audit contractor. The cost of the security audit is covered by the program.
Once the security audit has been completed and a report provided, the grant applicant business will be able to seek quotes and apply for up to 4 vouchers to carry out security improvement works (a ‘Cluster Business’ can apply for up to 5 vouchers).
Once the job is done, the business doing the work receives the signed and dated voucher from the business receiving the work as part payment. The business receiving the work pays the balance.
The business that has done the work redeems the voucher from the NT Government.
