Hi Rani, 

I would suggest, put all the controls that you have talked about above in your email in a risk assessment format and review your risk assessment  to see if it meets the requirement of BRC. 

There is a template that you can download and adapt it to your site and requirement for site security from this website.  

Thanks

This is for brc6 but may still relate somewhat (didn't compare texts) -

I actually perform an audit on my security measures. 

I have seen a few of these sort of checklists and they are quite useful but please consider this BRC requirement when assessing your security measures: 'Areas shall be assessed according to risk; sensitive or restricted areas shall be defined, clearly marked, monitored and controlled.'
