Abstract
A method and system for analyzing the security of a facility. The security system evaluates whether the elements of a facility comply with security requirements and provides a graphical representation of the facility with the results of the evaluation displayed. The security system provides a user interface through which security personnel can provide information describing the characteristics of each element of a facility. The security system then applies a rule for each security requirement to determine whether each element complies with the security requirement. The security system then displays a map of the facility with elements highlighted to indicate whether they comply with the security requirements.
