Client: A leading Ukrainian producer of bakery goods and frozen semi-finished products, operating its own retail network.
The problem: Systematic internal theft across the business, no clear picture of how well assets were protected, and no real understanding of the risks the company faced.
Diagnostics and analysis
SIDCON experts conducted a comprehensive security audit of the enterprise, covering:
Threat identification. Mapping the full spectrum of internal and external threats affecting the security of a manufacturing business.
Business vulnerability assessment. Analyzing how each threat impacts the company's business processes, and determining the organization's real capacity to withstand security risks.
Implementation
Based on the audit findings, a comprehensive strategy to strengthen the company's security was developed and put into practice.
A. Strategic recommendations
B. Policy framework and security regulations
We developed the core governing documents on enterprise security - none of which existed at the client before the project:
Results and business impact
Within the first six months after implementation, the client achieved the following:
Stronger security control. A supervision system for retail operations was introduced, substantially reducing internal theft across the business.
Systematic security processes. Screening of personnel and business partners became a mandatory, formally regulated practice - significantly reducing the risk of working with unreliable counterparties and replacing the client's previously ad hoc, unsystematic approach.
A corporate security culture. The compliance policy established unified standards of ethics and accountability for employees.
Conclusion
A comprehensive audit from SIDCON allowed the client to move from reacting to incidents toward proactive risk management - securing the sustainable growth of both its production operations and its retail network.
