How Business Executives Are Changing the Way They View Security--And What Security Professionals Should Do About It

This sweeping view of security through the eyes of the corporate executive will make you think twice about how you do your job.

The Convergence of Physical Security and IT for Managers and Executives

The convergence of physical security and IT is much broader than just the integration of physical security and IT security. It affects senior management and operations, and has financial as well as security implications. How do you integrate physical and IT security? No one is going to integrate a brick wall and a database. However, integrating the management of who can get inside the brick wall and inside the database is vital. Understanding the full scope of the convergence, and how to benefit from it, can close security gaps and provide near-term ROI on related security projects.

An Overview of PASS--Passenger Assessment Screening System for the Identification of High Risk Passengers

To combat terrorism, law enforcement personnel must assume the new role of security official. The security official's job is to make threat assessments based on information that is, in most cases, less reliable than information used traditionally by police to justify arrest or detention under the 4th Amendment. Using PASS behavior and appearance analysis, document analysis, and interview techniques, there is an opportunity to detect the terrorist or other person with hostile intent without regard to the presence of a weapon or to the nature of the activities being carried out.

Security Survivor: Redirecting the Security Department to Meet Homeland Security Challenges

Concerns for homeland security have placed new attention on security. But where resource constraints survive, the security department can only succeed by rethinking its way of doing business. This presentation takes advantage of the presenter's unusual position of being hired twice to run security for the same organization--once in the 1990s and again after 9/11/01. Despite 40% higher compensation, more staffing pressures and greater service demands were found. The key to meeting the challenge is focusing on infrastructure protection, including programmed security visits, ongoing vulnerability assessments, and anticipation of regulatory inspections on the horizon.

Private Security Service in Crime Enforcement: Issues and Tendencies in the Baltic States

Organized crime was seizing whole economic branches, penetrating to the government sector after the USSR collapsed. As a response to these calls, the creation of private security service (PSS) began, but a lack of joint legislature prevents using its power sufficiently. Meanwhile, crime knows no boundaries, and a high level of corruption in the bodies of governments just assists its spreading. With the Baltic States entering the European Union and NATO, preventing criminalization of PSS and establishing effective collaboration with law enforcement agencies and international security organizations is critical.

Achieving the Promise of Quality Video Surveillance

Corporations and government entities are spending billions of dollars for video surveillance and monitoring systems to prevent theft, robbery, illegal entry, and to protect their employees and customers. However, the overall video image quality from these systems is so poor that most offenders cannot be clearly identified and suspected criminals are often set free because the courts will not allow the video tape into evidence. The transition from analog to digital and from coax to IT networks is inevitable. You must know what questions to ask and how to avoid certain technologies to better serve your customers or clients.
