Farah Benis combines physical security consultancy with a clear commitment to ethics, safer workplaces and professional standards. As Founder and Managing Director of FFA Security Group, a London-based firm specialising in physical protection and consultancy services, she brings operational understanding and wider sector advocacy together. Her work has spanned Africa and the Middle East, giving her an international perspective on risk, service delivery and client expectations.
Benis is also active in industry leadership, including board and advisory roles with ASIS UK and IFPO UK. That involvement places her close to conversations around training, standards, professional conduct and the direction of the security profession.
Challenging culture and conduct
Benis’s influence is particularly important in discussions around workplace safety, harassment prevention, inclusive leadership and responsible security practice. ASIS Europe identifies her as a recognised expert in sexual harassment prevention, noting that she conducted and published research on workplace harassment in the security industry. Her wider work has included practical strategies for safer environments with organisations including Transport for London, Centre for London, Westminster Women’s Night Safety and multiple UK councils.
This contribution matters because professional security is not only measured by operational delivery. It is also judged by conduct, culture, accountability and the ability to protect people from harm in all its forms. By connecting consultancy, research, leadership and advocacy, Benis helps push the industry towards higher ethical standards and more practical action on safety, inclusion and respect.
