Turning Students Around, Not In: The Power of Behavioral Threat Assessment

At Secure Passage, we believe school safety is about more than just responding to danger—it's about preventing it through meaningful, early intervention. Our Behavioral Threat Assessment (BTA) platform equips K–12 schools and districts with a proven system to identify, assess, and address student behaviors before they escalate into crises.

Rooted in nationally recognized models like CSTAG and built for real-world school environments, our BTA platform gives multidisciplinary teams the tools to connect the dots—safely, securely, and with confidence. The platform integrates with your student information system, offers secure role-based access, and creates a single source of truth for each student’s behavioral history, incidents, and support interventions.

In a recent webinar on Behavioral Threat Assessment, Kirk Cerny and solutions architect Lucas Perfetti walk through the system and explain how schools can move beyond paper files and Google Docs to a centralized, confidential process that protects students and staff alike. They share insights from decades in education and security, emphasizing that the goal of BTA isn’t punishment—it’s positive, proactive guidance.
