How to Avoid Common Commercial Security Mistakes

Recent research from Policy Exchange calculated that the tangible cost of crime to the UK is approximately £170bn per year, with £38bn inflicted on businesses. This huge cost affects businesses in various sectors, falling victim to different types of crimes such as fraud, theft and cyber security breaches. With the current economic climate proving tricky to navigate across the vast majority of sectors, making sure your business doesn’t incur any additional costs due to crime is essential. To highlight the main issues, security experts at Integrated Fencing have detailed six of the most common mistakes in commercial security and how to avoid them.

In today's challenging economic climate, commercial property crime is on the rise across the UK, with the latest figures from ONS showing that business property robberies increased 52% during 2024 compared to the previous year.
