NOMINATION HIGHLIGHTS

Gallagher Security Health Check (SHC) is a powerful tool that delivers significant business value to customers. SHC proactively addresses the ever-evolving threat of cyber-attack by allowing users to identify and understand vulnerabilities that could reside within their security system, and supports sites to protect the data held within their access control system.

SHC provides an automated method to check a security system for potential risks, without the time or costs associated with traditional manual audits. Automation enables sites to carry out system audits more often and ensures thorough and reliable results.

Based on the test data, Gallagher generates a simple, easy to understand graphical report that assesses the severity of the threat and provides specific recommendations to mitigate the risk and ensure correct system configuration. The report prioritizes issues to help users plan upgrades effectively and notes changes since the previous audit, allowing users to monitor how their system is tracking.

A key benefit of SHC is that customers can run a check on their system at any time. It is intended that using SHC will become a frequent and regular maintenance activity at customers’ sites, and that it will also become standard operating procedure to run a check every time configuration changes are made. Performing this check ensures there are no unintended consequences following reconfiguration and provides peace of mind and assurance the site’s security remains strong.

SHC is free of charge to all licensed Gallagher sites as part of Gallagher’s commitment to ensuring customers have the knowledge and tools to identify potential vulnerabilities that could occur within their system.
