Security plan
Security Overlay to the RIBA Plan of Work, published by the RIBA in 2023, states:
The Security Plan contains the day-to-day methodologies for managing security measures once a building is in
operation e.g., the provision of a security guard at a building’s reception or the timing for security walk rounds.
The Security Plan is a documented, systematic set of policies and procedures setting out how to achieve security needs or objectives identified in the Security Strategy for the operation of the asset. The Security Plan:
- Will be developed after the Security Risk Assessment
- Detail how the measures selected after the Security Risk Assessment will be integrated with each other and operated
- Cover all aspects of security including physical, personnel, information, and cyber security
- Detail the policies and procedures for achieving the Security Requirements identified in the Project Brief.
