Security Measures includes an investment in security devices, which can protect against both burglary and employee theft. A burglar alarm will stop theft and vandalism to your property. A camera system will help discover wrongdoings and aide in an investigation. If people steal, it will be caught on camera. A door access control system will put specific doors on "lock-down" unless someone is given an access card or code. |

Behavioral Measures are the Procedures and Policies you implement on your employees which allows you a comfortable level of oversight, and they work best when they are advertised. Employees who feel that they would be detected while committing theft are much less likely to steal. A few good good examples of Behavioral Measures are surprise audits, tracking devices on work vehicles, and camera systems.
