Funding, Budgets, and ROp - We’ve Got You Covered
Budgets
Every budget looks different - whether you’re a broadcaster, podcaster, media outlet, or freelance journalist. And because budgets can change, our solutions and strategies are flexible and tailored to your resources, so safety is always achievable.
Return on prevention (ROP)
Prevention is an investment that pays back. By reducing risks and avoiding disruptions, proactive safety measures deliver measurable returns - from lower insurance costs to uninterrupted broadcasts and stronger workforce confidence.
grants
There are many resources and grants available to support media safety. We work with organizations and partners to help identify and secure the right grants, making protection more accessible to broadcasters, podcasters, media outlets, and freelancers alike.
business continuity
Keeping broadcasts and media operations running without interruption is critical. By combining smart strategies with the right safety technologies, we help ensure that your teams - and your programming — remain resilient in the face of disruption.
insurance premiums
Investing in safety technology can do more than protect your people - it can also lower insurance costs. Systems like gunshot detection or emergency alert devices demonstrate proactive risk management, helping to reduce premiums.
compliance
Broadcasters and media organizations must meet legal and regulatory safety requirements. Investing in the right measures not only protects people but also ensures compliance, avoiding costly penalties or reputational damage.
Safety is not optional - it’s a legal obligation.
In the US and across Europe, employers are required by law to provide a safe working environment for their staff. For broadcasters, that means protecting not only offices and studios but also journalists in the field, sound engineers on remote assignments, and broadcast teams working under pressure.
HR and compliance teams are increasingly responsible for these obligations - and Securepoint supports them with proven security solutions, from early-warning systems like gunshot detection, to personal protection with body armor and Silent Beacon.
By combining innovative technology with your duty of care, you safeguard both your people and your organization.
