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

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.'

Tony
