TENAFLY, N.J. — Nationally recognized forensic industry expert Jeffrey Zwirn, a 2024 inductee in the SSI Industry Hall of Fame, has announced the launch of the IDS Proactive Forensic Defense Program, a “specialized, proactive service that is custom designed to help companies reduce risk and liability before a loss occurs.”
IDS is launching the program “in an era when alarm contractors, system integrators, central stations and equipment manufacturers are increasingly named in litigation following security-related incidents and losses,” thr announcement says.
With more than 45 years of subject matter expertise (SME) in the forensic analysis of alarm systems, system integration, video surveillance, central station monitoring and security equipment manufacturing, Zwirn has investigated thousands of cases and claims nationwide where these sectors of the industry were named as defendants, where there was property loss, serious personal injury and/or death.
What Are the Benefits of the IDS Proactive Forensic Defense Program?
The IDS Proactive Forensic Defense Program “offers a unique forensic perspective in quantifying risks, and in doing so, advanced methodologies are created to proactively customize and institute protective changes in your policies, procedures, and in other areas of your business operations,” according to the announcement.
“Once litigation is filed, it’s too late to undo the decisions that your company made and or did not make that are alleged to have caused and/or contributed to a loss,” says Zwirn in the company announcement. “The best time to help minimize liability is before a loss occurs.
“This program is designed to give all sectors of our industry alternatives to what increases their exposure to litigation. It includes, but is not limited to, mission-critical analysis, stress testing, and advanced training for each of your company’s employees,” he says.
