Specialist Behavioural Detection training and consultancy services
Behavioural Detection is a proven method of identifying hostile intent through observable behaviours. It provides an effective layer of security without disrupting normal operations.
At Baseline, we help organisations implement Behavioural Detection in a way that is appropriate, proportionate and aligned with wider security strategies.
What is Behavioural Detection?
Behavioural Detection is used to identify individuals who may pose a threat by observing physical and behavioural cues. These can appear during hostile reconnaissance, planning or conducting criminal acts. When staff are trained to recognise these indicators, they can intervene early to disrupt potential threats before harm is caused.
Specialist training to identify suspicious behaviour, enhance situational awareness, and strengthen security measures in public spaces, transport hubs, and high-profile events.
Supporting a systematic approach to threat disruption
Behavioural Detection works best when integrated into a wider protective strategy. It helps detect individuals during planning phases of illegal activity, such as reconnaissance for a terrorist attack. It can also deter criminals from targeting a site and deny them the information needed to carry out their plans. This proactive approach supports a more resilient security posture.
Reassuring and protecting the public
This technique not only deters individuals with hostile intent but also reassures staff, the public and site users. Baseline delivers Behavioural Detection with a strong customer service focus, so it fits naturally into environments where public engagement is a priority. When used correctly, it does not interfere with existing operations or reduce efficiency.
Training built on real experience
Our Behavioural Detection training is developed and delivered by subject matter experts with extensive field experience. It covers how to identify cues, apply proportionate responses and operate in high-pressure environments. Courses are tailored to each client and backed by government guidance on best practice.
“I had previously completed Behavioural Detection training with another provider in my previous role in the Police and thought that was good. I had no idea how little I knew until the training from Baseline. Baseline are well above and beyond what I experienced elsewhere.”
