Key Features

Identify Vulnerabilities and Strengthen Security

The audit helps identify potential weaknesses in your food defense plan and facility security. By uncovering these vulnerabilities, you can implement corrective measures to strengthen your defenses against intentional adulteration and sabotage.

Ensure Compliance with Regulations

The audit ensures that your food defense practices comply with industry regulations and standards, such as those outlined by FSMA and GFSI. This helps avoid potential legal issues, fines, or disruptions in your operations due to non-compliance.
