Perpetuity Research and Consultancy International are pleased to announce that we have expanded the number of consultancy products and services that we offer.
Today there is a wider appreciation of the different types of threats that can occur, internal and external, and of the need to respond in a measured way. Yet all too often security does not meet expectations and for a wide variety of reasons. At Perpetuity we have studied these, assessed the findings, and coupled with extensive security experience in the field we are able to offer you a wide range of security services to meet your security needs.
Prof Martin Gill will be talking at the following events:

10th April 2008
ASIS Conference, Barcelona
