Create a Plan Ask two simple questions first: – What needs to be protected? – From what does it need protection?
3
Question 1 What needs to be protected? – Property – People
4
Question 2 From what does it need protection? – Property protection is the easier item to determine. Is theft a concern? Is damage and/or vandalism a concern? Is the use of your property against others a concern?
5
Question 2 From what does it need protection? – Personnel protection requires a basic threat analysis: Is there a danger to personnel due to work place violence (worker on worker)? Is there a danger to personnel due to external violence (armed robbery in a bank scenario)? Is there a danger to personnel due to terrorist attack (specific sites and industries)?
6
Next Steps Once you have asked and answered the previous questions you can begin to formalize you Security Strategy.
7
Security Strategy When developing a strategy you need to consider the four D’s of security (In this order): – Deterrence – Detection – Delay – Defeat
8
Deterrence Deterrence is a combination of numerous things including physical features and environmental: – Lighting during hours of darkness Is all areas and approaches well lit? – Is the location secured Are materials of value in secured fenced areas when stored outdoors? Are parking lots secured? Are exterior doors locked from the outside?
9
Detection Detection is the ability to identify a threat against your personnel or property. – Detection can be accomplished through several means: On site monitored alarms and cameras Off site monitored alarms and cameras Mobile and foot patrols Combination of the above
10
Delay Delay is designed as a means to slow the progress aggressor after detection. – Delay before detection is of little value unless used for deterrence (creating a hardened facility appearance) – Delay should slow aggressors to allow response by Local Law Enforcement and/ allow personnel to take protective actions
11
Defeat Defeat of an adversary is the apprehension by Law Enforcement or preventing them from accomplishing what they set out to do. – Examples of this could be: vehicle barrier system preventing someone from completing a smash and grab with a car. Tiger teeth vehicle immobilizers at the exit points of a car rental facility. Bullet resistant teller booths in a gas station.
12
Closing In closing each facility has different protection objectives, there are a number of different ways to provide solutions once the threats are understood.
