7. Concepts of Security continued psychological The concept of security is as much psychological as it is physical. Example is there any physical obstacle presented by security lighting or is it a psychological deterrence? ©TCLEOSE Course #2101 Crime Prevention Curriculum Part I is the intellectual property of CSCS-ICJS (2009)

9. Concepts of Security continued Cost - effectiveness is one of the most difficult concepts of security. cost value Does the cost of protecting it outweigh its value? ©TCLEOSE Course #2101 Crime Prevention Curriculum Part I is the intellectual property of CSCS-ICJS (2009)

13. CONCEPTS of SECURITY (Continued) SECURITY BARRIERS: Defined as: Anything that restrains or obstructs passage. Restrain: to hold back from action Obstruct: to make difficult or oppose passage. Security measures are taken to reduce losses to criminal acts.

14. Three Lines of Defense devices Dozens of security devices and procedures may be placed to reduce losses caused by crime. measures To discuss these measures systematically we present them within the context of the three lines of defense. They are: ©TCLEOSE Course #2101 Crime Prevention Curriculum Part I is the intellectual property of CSCS-ICJS (2009)

24. Concepts of Security Perimeter Barriers - Fences securitysurveys least cost When conducting security surveys most situations call for a recommend - dations that provide maximum protection at the least cost.

62. CONCEPTS of SECURITY “RISKS” Dynamic Risk:can produce profit or loss Dynamic Risk: (can produce profit or loss) a judgment call on the part of the businessman.

63. CONCEPTS of SECURITY (Continued) – “RISKS” Risk Management Risk Management: Attempts to reduce the possibilities for cost or loss in order to derive the highest possible net benefit. Risk Reduction : Risk Reduction : involves techniques to reduce potential for criminal confrontation. Risk Transfer: Risk Transfer: by using comprehensive insurance coverage risk of loss through criminal action is transferred from a business owner to insurance underwriter. See page 11 of your Concept of Security handout ©TCLEOSE Course #2101 Crime Prevention Curriculum Part I is the intellectual property of CSCS-ICJS (2009)

64. Risk Elimination Risk Elimination: involves removing potential targets of dynamic or criminal risk (i.e. removing all cash from premise). Risk Spreading: may involve dividing potential targets into smaller segments thereby making a large loss les likely. (i.e. spread available cash around in several secured locations around premise). Risk Acceptance : business person assumes personally (see page 8 in your handout).
