PROJECT: AWARENESS - THE IMPORTANCE OF CORRECT VETTING AND HOUSEHOLD SECURITY

YOU MAY SHARE THIS PUBLIC DOCUMENT

 

SSS has witnessed firsthand the devastating impact that breaches of household security may have on families.


It is essential to understand that criminals often have access to inside information,

which they use to plan and execute their crimes with precision and safety.


This information typically comes from individuals in the household who are trusted by the family

who may inadvertently or intentionally provide details to criminals.

 
 

RECENT CASE: 


  • Crimes driven by inside information often stem from individuals exploiting their privileged access to knowledge in households.

  • Trusted insiders may leak sensitive information for personal gain or to sabotage their employers. 

  • The abuse of trust and access has profound consequences, such as theft, assault, and even putting lives in danger.

  • A recent incident serves as a clear reminder of this reality.

  • An elderly domestic worker, whom the family trusted implicitly, was found to be the source of critical information for a criminal gang.

  • She was considered almost a part of the family, known for her excellent housekeeping, cooking, and childcare skills.

  • It became evident that criminals exploited her knowledge of the household’s routines and security measures.

 

KEY POINTS TO CONSIDER: 


APPROPRIATE VETTING OF HOUSEHOLD STAFF:

  • It is crucial to thoroughly vet anyone you allow into your home, especially those with regular access, such as domestic workers, gardeners, and maintenance personnel. 

  • This process should include background checks and verifying references.


RETENTION OF IDENTIFICATION DOCUMENTS:

  • Always keep a copy of the identification documents of your household staff with a trusted family member. 

  • This ensures a record of who has access to your home and can be crucial in investigations if a security breach occurs.


AVOID PROVIDING SPARE KEYS OR ACCESS REMOTES:

  • Never give your household staff spare keys or remote controls, even if it seems convenient. 

  • This practice may lead to unauthorised access to your home and increases the risk of security breaches.

  • Consider using secure access systems that allow you to control and monitor entry to your home without handing over physical keys or remotes.


 AWARENESS OF CONVERSATIONS AND ACTIONS:

  • Be mindful of the information you share in your household and around your staff. 

  • Sensitive details about your routines, security systems, and valuables should be kept confidential.

  • Understand that casual conversations may be overheard and misinterpreted, providing potential criminals with useful information.

 

ENHANCED SECURITY MEASURES:

  • Invest in reliable security systems, including surveillance cameras, alarm systems, and secure locks. 

  • These systems will deter criminals and provide evidence should an incident occur.

  • Regularly review and update your security measures to address vulnerabilities.

 

EDUCATION AND TRAINING:

  • Educate your household staff about security protocols and the importance of confidentiality. 

  • Encourage them to report suspicious activities or individuals whom they may encounter and individuals who ask for confidential information.

 

The safety and security of your home and family should never be compromised.

 

 By:

  • taking proactive steps to vet your household staff thoroughly,

  • retaining identification documents,

  • refraining from giving out spare keys or remotes, and

  • maintaining a high level of awareness and security, you can significantly reduce the risk of criminal activity.

 

Remember, the walls of your home should provide protection, not serve as an avenue for breaches.

SSS is committed to helping you create a secure environment for your family.

EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: All potential clients need to be aware that owing to the nature of our work as specialist investigators there are people who have been caught on the wrong side of the law - who are trying to discredit me - Mike Bolhuis and my organisation Specialised Security Services - to get themselves off the hook. This retaliation happens on social media and creates doubt about our integrity and ability. Doubt created on social media platforms is both unwarranted and untrue. We strongly recommend that you make up your minds concerning me and our organisation only after considering all the factual information - to the exclusion of hearsay and assumptions. Furthermore, you are welcome to address your concerns directly with me should you still be unsatisfied with your conclusions. While the internet provides a lot of valuable information, it is also a platform that distributes a lot of false information. The distribution of false information, fake news, slander and hate speech constitutes a crime that can be prosecuted by law. Your own research discretion and discernment are imperative when choosing what and what not to believe.


STANDARD RULES APPLY: Upon appointment, we require a formal mandate with detailed instructions. Please take note that should you not make use of our services – you may not under any circumstance use my name or the name of my organisation as a means to achieve whatever end.
