CSA Case Study
Perimeter Hardening and Gate Discipline Program
A multi-orchard operator reduced repeat incidents by standardizing gate schedules, lighting overlap, and targeted camera coverage with evidence retention improvements.
Outcomes
What improved
- Reduced perimeter breach attempts through clearer deterrence and faster response.
- Improved incident documentation quality and faster internal escalation.
- Fewer unexplained bin variances at end-of-day reconciliation.
Controls
Controls implemented
- Perimeter signage and formal access rules
- Fixed-camera coverage for control points
- Daily reconciliation + variance escalation
- Retention increased to 60 days
Change log
What changed operationally
- Locked gate schedule with exception logging for after-hours entries.
- Lighting overlap added at corners and secondary access paths.
- Camera placement refocused on gates, staging, and egress routes.
