Keith Fowler Releases Free Personal Security Readiness Checklist for Everyday Individuals

California, US, 9th January 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, Security leader Keith Fowler, founder of Lion Shield Protection, has announced the release of a free Personal Security Readiness Checklist, a simple tool designed to help everyday individuals improve their situational awareness and reduce avoidable risks in daily life.

Known for his hands-on leadership and emphasis on consistency, Fowler says the checklist reflects the same principles he applies in his company and career. "Security work is built on consistency and attention to detail," he explains - a mindset carried directly into the new resource.

The free checklist helps individuals assess basic habits such as home entry routines, digital security, travel awareness, vehicle safety, and emergency preparedness. Fowler adds, "You don't build safety through fear; you build it through preparation."

Why This Resource Matters: The Real-World Cost of Everyday Security Gaps

Fowler points to the significant risk posed by overlooked daily habits. Current safety statistics highlight the issue:

41% of home break-ins involve no forced entry, often due to unlocked doors or predictable routines.

27% of theft incidents occur around vehicles, many involving items left visible.

55% of people use the same password across multiple accounts, making them vulnerable to cyber-attacks.

Nearly 70% of adults admit they have no personal emergency plan, increasing response time during crises.

"These are small oversights with big consequences," Fowler says. "Success - whether in business or personal safety - comes from doing the small things right over and over."

How This Checklist Reflects Fowler's Philosophy

The resource mirrors Fowler's practical, grounded approach to leadership and security. In his recent interview, he noted:

"Trade school taught me how to finish what I start."

"I won't ask my team to do anything I wouldn't do."

"Technology supports the officer, not the other way around."

These principles guided the checklist design: simple steps, quick wins, and real-life actions anyone can take - with or without specialised tools or training.

Use This in 15 Minutes

The Personal Security Readiness Checklist is intentionally fast to complete. In 15 minutes, users can:

Review their daily home entry and exit routine.

Check the top five digital security risks on their devices.

Audit vehicle safety habits and storage patterns.

Identify gaps in communication or emergency contact planning.

"This resource is about empowering people," Fowler says. "You can improve your safety today without needing a background in security."

Common Mistakes People Make

Fowler says most risks stem from simple patterns people overlook:

Relying on routine - doing the same entry/exit habits daily.

Leaving valuables visible in cars, even "just for a minute."

Using predictable passwords or saving them insecurely.

Assuming emergencies won't happen and failing to document contacts or plans.

Not staying aware of surroundings when entering or leaving homes, car parks, or workplaces.

"These aren't complicated issues," Fowler explains. "They're small habits that need small corrections."
