Bringing Security into the Blueprint: How Early Collaboration Builds Safer Spaces
Too often, security is treated as an afterthought — something added once a building is nearly complete. On Security Sessions, Paula Balmori Beltrán, Global Director of Security Design and Integration at Brivo, talks with Brian Petruzzi, Head of Global Services Design, Engineering, and Construction at Meta, about why that needs to change.
Petruzzi emphasizes the importance of involving security teams from the very beginning of a project to align with an organization’s goals and create spaces that are both functional and safe. By engaging early and building trust among stakeholders, security can move from being seen as a barrier to becoming an empowering part of the design process.
As Balmori notes, the industry is starting to shift — and in a few years, we’ll look back and see how early collaboration helped redefine what it means to design for security from the ground up.
