David Lawrence International (DL) has three major objectives:

1. Integrated Threat Identification: DL identifies multiple man-made threats for corporation and members of the management

In order to tailor David Lawrence International to the specific requirements of the end-user it has a modular structure, with each of the three modules representing a self-contained unit. By implementing David Lawrence a coherent Security Policy and Culture within all management levels of the organisation will be achieved.
