Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) is defined as a multi-disciplinary approach to deterring criminal behavior through environmental design. CPTED strategies rely upon the ability to influence offender decisions that precede criminal acts by affecting the built, social and administrative environment. CPTED interventions will help reduce crime with target hardening, increased lighting and increased surveillance are some of the examples.
CPTED security surveys are available to be scheduled. To Schedule a survey, please contact:
