Company Data

CAMPUS RISK SOLUTIONS® is a software and standards company fueling a Lifestyle Approach to Incident Management. Today, the U.S. lacks a universal standard to secure campuses and respond to threats. Disasters, emergencies, and day-to-day incidents interfere with business and disrupt our way of life. Risks and controls are not properly prioritized due to the lack of end-to-end visibility into the threat landscape. We offer Infrastructure Hardening-as-a-Service (IHaaS) designed to prevent and contain threats regardless of type, cause, or intended target. Our mission is to protect people, the natural and built environment, assets, and information by imparting a daily, infrastructure hardening regimen applicable across infrastructure domains.

Core Competencies

The Campus Incident Management System (CIMS) extends DHS’s reach and scope, replacing fragmented approaches to security. CIMS contains a customizable, model resilient campus blueprint, and a methodology to harden and score the strength of risk-resistant infrastructure. Client-campuses receive a portion of the universal blueprint as an All-Hazards, Performance Improvement Plan based on their industry and campus type. A public-private partnership is set up to evolve a local consensus standard for resilience. The standard is turned into work units to harden infrastructure within timeboxed program cycles. The purpose is to reduce the number and severity of incidents, and minimize reliance on limited lifeline resources.

CIMS is a virtual, standing Preparedness Operations Center (POC) – the missing panel on the digital wall of an Emergency Operations Center (EOC). While EOC software tracks incident statuses and responses, the POC provides constant due diligence on the state of infrastructure. The program’s external review process accredits campuses that have successfully hardened infrastructure as Certified Reasonable Care Campuses™.

Key Differentiators

Key Differentiators – The whole-of-community can finally operationalize the National Incident Management System (NIMS) used by emergency managers, first responders, and the U.S. Military. Stakeholders align with national and homeland security objectives and connect to the Incident Command System before, during, and after incidents. Efforts to close security gaps are less duplicitous; response less stovepipe. The burden of complying with regulations and policies is spread. Leaders are better positioned to consistently deliver and accurately document the provision of reasonable care. Procurement and resource allocation are more precise. Program participants gain real world learning experiences and hone critical thinking skills. They develop a sense of civic responsibility and become proficient at seeding risk-resistant infrastructure. Read about CIMS Benefits…
