At a minimum, a valid security agreement consists of a description of the collateral, a statement of the intention of providing security interest, and signatures from all parties involved. Most security agreements, however, go beyond these basic requirements.

At a minimum, a security plan must address personnel security, unauthorized access, and en route security. Be aware of the possibility that your current and former staff may pose a potential security risk.

The security agreement must: be signed (or authenticated) by the debtor and the owner of the property, contain a description of the collateral and. make it clear that a security interest is intended.

Just like real estate deeds, security agreements should be recorded at state offices and made available to the public. Recording a security agreement—filing / registering it with the state—does a number of things for both parties involved.
