Multi-Site Security Checklist
A Self-Assessment Tool for Operations, Security, and Facility Leaders
Is your security strategy keeping up with the complexity of managing multiple locations? Use this checklist to identify vulnerabilities, improve consistency, and make informed decisions.
1. Site Access & Entry Control
☐ Do all facilities have a consistent access control system in place?
☐ Are employee access permissions updated promptly when roles change or employees leave?
☐ Is there a centralized system to manage and audit access across all sites?
☐ Are visitor logs maintained at each site—and regularly reviewed?
2. Surveillance & Monitoring
☐ Are all exterior doors, loading docks, and critical interior areas covered by surveillance cameras?
☐ Is footage stored securely and retained per policy (e.g., 30–90 days)?
☐ Can you remotely view camera feeds from each site?
☐ Are cameras inspected and maintained regularly?
3. Intrusion Detection & Alerts
☐ Are intrusion alarms installed in all high-risk areas (back doors, cash rooms, server rooms)?
☐ Are alerts routed to both on-site managers and a centralized contact?
☐ Are after-hours breach responses clearly defined and rehearsed?
4. Emergency Preparedness
☐ Do all sites have up-to-date emergency response plans?
☐ Have staff been trained on evacuation, lockdown, and medical emergency procedures?
☐ Is there a mass notification system in place to alert employees across all locations?
5. Physical Infrastructure
☐ Are doors, locks, and windows inspected regularly for tampering or wear?
☐ Are lighting levels adequate for parking lots, entrances, and walkways?
☐ Are signage and security decals clearly visible and up to brand standards?
6. Policy & Compliance
☐ Are security protocols standardized across all locations?
☐ Is there a documented incident reporting procedure in place?
☐ Do you conduct regular security audits or reviews per site?
☐ Are you in compliance with local and industry-specific regulations (e.g., HIPAA, PCI-DSS)?
7. Technology Integration
☐ Are all systems (access, surveillance, intrusion) integrated into a single dashboard?
☐ Can your security team monitor and control systems remotely?
☐ Are you leveraging analytics or AI for behavior detection, alerts, or trend analysis?
8. Vendor & System Oversight
☐ Do you have one security partner or multiple vendors managing your locations?
☐ Is there a dedicated account manager or point of contact?
☐ Are service and maintenance logs easily accessible and centralized?
