Multi-threat Vulnerability Assessments
Effective risk-reduction programs require a clear understanding of current vulnerabilities. At Stone Security Engineering, we assist our government and commercial clients in quantifying these vulnerabilities through Multi-Threat Vulnerability Assessments. These assessments cover a wide range of potential attack modes, including Explosions (whether from VBIED or MBIEDs), Vehicle Ramming, Ballistics, and Mob Attacks.
By conducting Multi-Threat Vulnerability Assessments, we provide clients with valuable insights into their security posture. These assessments help identify areas of weakness and highlight potential risks that need to be addressed. Our goal is to assist clients in developing comprehensive risk-reduction strategies tailored to their specific needs and circumstances.
Our team of experts works closely with clients throughout the assessment process. We gather relevant information about the facility or organization, assess potential threats, and evaluate existing security measures. Through careful analysis and consideration, we provide clients with actionable recommendations to enhance their security and protect against a range of potential threats.
We understand the importance of addressing vulnerabilities proactively. By identifying and quantifying risks early on, clients can implement measures to mitigate these risks and improve overall security. Our Multi-Threat Vulnerability Assessments serve as a valuable tool in this process, helping clients create safer and more secure environments for their personnel and assets.

Criteria and Standards Development
At Stone, we understand that every situation is unique, and there are no one-size-fits-all solutions when it comes to protecting people and property from terrorist attacks or accidental releases of hazardous materials. What works in one location may not be suitable for another. For example, security standards appropriate for the Financial District in New York City may not be relevant for a building in a downtown area in the Midwest. Similarly, standards developed for buildings on military bases in the United States may not meet the needs of a data center in Europe.
When it comes to designing facilities and buildings exposed to terrorist attacks or hazardous materials, specific criteria and standards are necessary. These criteria would differ based on the nature of the facility and its location. Drawing on our extensive experience working with various types of buildings and facilities, Stone collaborates with clients to develop customized criteria and standards. These tailored solutions address the unique risk reduction, safety, security, resilience, and protection needs of their organizations.
By working closely with our clients, we ensure that the criteria and standards we develop align with their specific requirements and objectives. Our goal is to provide comprehensive and effective solutions that enhance the safety and security of their facilities while minimizing risks and vulnerabilities. With our expertise and tailored approach, we empower organizations to mitigate threats effectively and protect their assets and personnel.
A holistic approach between design and security can yield both aesthetically pleasing structures and spaces while still protecting the people and missions within.

Security RFP and Solicitation Document Development
Translating well-developed criteria and standards documents into effective Requests for Proposal (RFP) and project solicitation documents can be challenging, even for clients and owners who have a good understanding of their requirements. This process is often complex because many counter-terrorism and physical security standards are either written by security personnel or are written in a general manner to apply to various project types.
At Stone Security Engineering, we recognize the difficulties clients may face in this regard. That’s why we offer assistance to clients in integrating general security documents into project-specific RFPs and project solicitation documents. By leveraging our expertise in security engineering and project management, we help clients tailor their RFPs and project solicitation documents to meet their specific needs and objectives.
