  • When a facility is created or assessed. The system can pull data from Cap Index based on the facility's address. The crime risk data is factored into the overall facility risk score. A credit is consumed only when the Cap Index data is fetched.

  • Purpose of Security Gauge in Risk Assessment:
  • To provide security threat intelligence for facilities based on their geographic location (especially in high-risk regions or countries).
  • To support automated facility risk scoring with up-to-date, real-world risk indicators.
  • World Aware: t looks like you're viewing the “World Aware” entry in the Third Party Data Credits → Cap Index grid in the Secure Watch billing section, which tracks usage of third-party data services. Based on the pattern with Security Gauge, here's how to interpret it:
  • Purpose of Security Gauge in Risk Assessment:
  • World Aware is another integrated third-party data provider, like SecurityGauge.
  • It typically offers global incident, geopolitical, or travel risk intelligence tied to specific facility locations.
  • Each request to World Aware consumes data credits sourced from your subscription plan.
  • To provide a holistic view of global threats across various categories—such as natural disasters, health emergencies, and political risks.
  • To augment facility assessments with real-world intelligence and alerts.
  • To support organizations in making informed decisions about site safety, continuity planning, and operational risk.
