Stainless steel reinforcement plates, together with a thick zinc-alloy shell and a long-travel bolt, creates a triple-wall vault. This key safe has been awarded a Level 1 certificate in the UK by the Loss Prevention Certification Board, and the equivalent certification in France.

As residential estates invest heavily in perimeter surveillance, automated access control, and smart management apps, the industry faces an uncomfortable paradox: security breaches keep happening, and they rarely stem from a lack of technology.

Modern warehouses are more than simple storage spaces; they are complex ecosystems built on multiple technologies and devices. Kaspersky discovered a new cyberattack vector in a widely used barcode scanner that could expose supply chains.

The average business interruption claim exceeds €850 000, about 70% higher than the average associated property damage claim, while fire and explosion account for more than 40% of the total value of claims analysed.

Storage is a strategic consideration for critical infrastructure security, and operators must consider how to meet their storage requirements without getting stuck in a quagmire of constantly having to buy more capacity.

South African businesses must pursue cyber resilience amid skills shortages, constrained resources, and increasingly complex hybrid environments. However, more controls do not automatically produce safer behaviour and may lead to cybersecurity fatigue.
