Security by Design

Cocoon risk management is specialized in applying Security by Design according to the CPTED method. We apply architectural measures to your construction or renovation project, so that you achieve a higher level of safety at lower initial costs.

CPTED (Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design) is a design method in which safety and security are central. This method is also known as Security by Design. By planning, designing or arranging buildings in a certain way, crime, nuisance and undesirable behavior are prevented. CPTED is a multidisciplinary process. This means that not only undesired behavior is not given a chance, but that, aditionally, desired behavior is encouraged. Applying Security by Design can therefore have many advantages in both economic and security areas. At Cocoon we are experts in the field of CPTED according to ISO 22341 and we have already been able to carry out many large projects in the private sector using the CPTED strategy. Feel free to take a look at our portfolio.

What is CPTED?

CPTED is a multidisciplinary approach to countering criminal and undesirable behavior through design and management. The goal of CPTED is to design a building or area in such a way that the number of security incidents is reduced and the desired behavior increases. CPTED uses the following four principles: Visibility, Clarity, Accessibility and Attractiveness. These four principles are achieved by applying physical and social measures. This includes measures in the field of (front) lighting, fencing, lines of sight and influencing behaviour.

The most important thing for creating a safe environment is the cooperation between different stakeholders. It is important to combine the opinions of users of a building or area with the knowledge of the CPTED experts in order to arrive at a design for a safer and more positive environment. Cocoon’s specialists have extensive experience in this area and are ready to lift your organization to a higher safety level!

What are the advantages of CPTED?

CPTED can bring many benefits to your organization, both economically and securitywise. By applying preventive measures, the environment is made safer in a cost-neutral way. This leads to a proven decrease in crime, more social cohesion and participation, a greater sense of safety and lower costs for security and enforcement.

At Cocoon we are convinced that the chance of a feeling of insecurity increases when the safety measures are not in accordance with the environment. Whether this occurs consciously or unconsciously, it always results in an undesirable situation. In addition, visible security measures (target hardening) ensure continuous investments, a resttriction on freedom of movement and reduced self-regulation.

CPTED is the way to promote the feeling of safety in your organization in a cost-neutral way!
