Lynda brings a combination of significant end user and consulting experience to our team. As a consultant, she has 25 years of experience in providing security risk assessment, CPTED and operations review, master planning, physical security design, policies and procedures development, and training services. As an end user, Lynda directed state and national security divisions for a major financial institution and was the Director of Security for a real estate development firm specializing in high end retail. Her expertise lies in her understanding of security programs across a broad spectrum of facility types and how to best apply programming to meet client needs. Her approach of thorough fact-finding and evaluation of threats, risks, vulnerabilities, critical issues, and applicable standards allows her to craft solutions appropriate for a facility’s internal and external risks and the capabilities of its security program.

At SRMC, we believe physical security is more than just locks, cameras, and policies, it is about creating safe, functional environments where people and operations can thrive.  Our approach is built on three guiding principles:

• Practical Protection. Security must work in the real world. We design layered solutions that align with your culture, operations, and budget.
• Client Collaboration. No two organizations are the same. We partner with you to understand the unique risks in your environment, the goals of the organization as well as what constraints exist.
• Continuous Improvement. Security is not a one-time fix; it is a living process. We help you build systems that adapt as your needs evolve.
