CPTED Security Assessment Tool
Powered by North Star Group | Based on Industry Best Practices
North Star Group's CPTED Physical Security Assessment provides a structured, field-ready way to evaluate a property using Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design principles. Work through the assessment from your phone, tablet, or computer, document observations and photographs in the field, and receive a professionally formatted PDF report with your completed results and CPTED posture score.
Designed to be grounded in recognized industry standards, guidelines, and established security best practices, including internationally recognized CPTED and security principles. Our assessment methodology is designed to translate those professional frameworks into a practical, structured tool for evaluating real-world environments.
Our CPTED Security Assessment Tool is a fully web-based app that works seamlessly across all devices. It can be launched directly from your browser and added to any smartphone’s home screen — giving you the look and feel of a native app, without needing to visit the App Store® or Google Play®. Whether you're in the field or at the office, access your assessments instantly, anytime, anywhere.
