Toronto is the largest city in Canada and serves as the economic capital of the country. It’s widely considered one of the safest cities on the planet, with the Economist’s Intelligence Unit listing it as the eighth safest city in the world.
It’s a city of diversity that embraces global cultural practices. The city’s vibrant nature, stunning nightlife and excellent atmosphere make it a fantastic city in which to conduct business.
While the overall crime rate continues to be low, certain crimes are on the rise. Property crimes continue to be an ongoing concern, and the number of crimes reported to police has been slowly trending upward.

Why A Security System Strategy Is Vital
There’s more available to be stolen during a physical security breach than just physical goods. Many data breaches begin as physical breaches when unauthorized personnel are able to gain access to computers holding sensitive data.
So while you may have excellent data security measures in place, protecting the integrity of the physical equipment itself is vital.
Many businesses do not have adequate physical security systems in place, and small companies are particularly vulnerable to physical breaches. In fact, it’s been estimated that only 31 percent of small businesses take proper action against security threats.
In addition to having a robust security system for your Toronto-based business, there are several precautionary steps you can take that will help to safeguard your physical property and your employees’ safety.
Educate your employees. Vigilance begins with awareness and having your employees understand the risks they face as well as the likelihood of exposure to a security breach will go a long way toward protecting your business. This awareness extends from understanding if personnel on the premises are authorized to be there to knowing what critical systems should be protected at all times.
Take an inventory. Knowing what types of goods are on your premises as well as their inherent value will help you to put a strategy in place to protect your office environment. Keeping high-value items on site can lead to a higher exposure to risk.
Control Access. By controlling access to your premises, you’ll be able to not only decide who is granted access, but also track the movements of authorized personnel. This type of intelligence can help you to improve your overall security levels.
Keep sensitive data restricted. Whether data is stored on a network or a physical filing system, ensure that access to this information is granted only to those who need it. This will help prevent unauthorized data access, both accidental and intentional.
Ensure password integrity. It’s essential that employees practice proper standards when it comes to generating passwords. The easier a password is to crack, the easier a physical computer system can become vulnerable to unauthorized access. Many data breaches begin this way, so it’s important to ensure that your data terminals are protected.
