Protective Security
Protective Security: PROTECT WHAT MATTERS MOST
Does your organization conduct security-sensitive operations or fall under protective security legislation?
At HiQ, we combine information security, personnel security, and physical security to create comprehensive protection for your business.
We help you understand the requirements, identify risks, and build protection that actually works in everyday operations – not just on paper.

Why protective security – and why now?
The threat landscape for security-sensitive operations is more complex than ever. It’s not just about technology, but equally about people, processes, and physical environments.
With the right protective security in place, you can:
- Reduce the risk of serious incidents and disruptions
- Comply with protective security legislation in a structured way
- Create a sense of security for employees, customers, and partners
- Gain a clear understanding of your assets, vulnerabilities, and risks
Our areas within protective security
We help you identify and protect the information that is critical to your operations, whether it resides in systems, documents, or with people.
Examples of support:
– Analysis of sensitive information and how it is handled
– Support in classification, governance, and processes
– Practical measures to strengthen protection in your IT environment
Individuals with access to sensitive information or critical functions are both an asset and a potential risk. With well-designed personnel security, we ensure that your organization and employees remain secure.
We can support you with:
– Policies and processes for personnel security
– Support in vetting procedures and follow-ups
– Targeted training for managers and key personnel
Insider threats often develop gradually through behavioral changes. With the right knowledge and approach, organizations can identify and manage risks before they escalate into incidents.
Our training and initiatives in insider prevention help you:
– Raise awareness among managers and employees
– Identify warning signs and act early
– Build a culture where it feels natural to react when something seems off
Digital security alone is not enough without physical protection. We help ensure that facilities, equipment, and critical functions are protected against intrusion, sabotage, and other physical threats.
We support you with:
– Reviews of facilities and sensitive areas
– Recommendations on barriers, access control, monitoring, and procedures
– Action plans that are practical and implementable
To understand what needs to be protected – and how – you need a clear picture of your current state.
We conduct analyses that:
– Identify your critical assets
– Highlight risks and vulnerabilities
– Propose concrete and prioritized actions
– The result is a decision-making foundation that makes it easier to prioritize the right investments and initiatives.
Together with our penetration testing specialists, we provide:
– Practical testing of your security measures
– Exercises that train both technology and organization
– Methods and training that strengthen your capabilities over time
The goal is simple: to ensure you know how your protection performs when it truly matters.
