Risk Based Strategies for Physical Security
Workshop
The only good that comes out of any major
tragedy is that people at high levels react by trying to offer an overnight
prevention or cure. Money, technology, manpower and new concepts of operation
arise from these events just as they did following the events of
9-11-2001. Sadly though, the more time that passes away
from the events, that support tends to dwindle and we get back into an era of
complacency. Professionals in the Security industry are not usually as willing
to fall back into that lull, but Congress, heads of major corporations and so
on, start to realize they are not just in the security business and must
continue to manage money and make profits by reducing costs and accepting risk.
The Risk Based Strategies for Physical Security Workshop will help you determine
your real requirements and the capability/limitations of your existing systems.
We will use somewhat of a scientific method to recommend procurement of the best
solutions that will yield the highest probability of detection while ensuring
the lowest error rate. This will help corporate leadership best decide where to
spend money they are willing to commit to security and how much is enough (or
too much) given the existing threat and current vulnerabilities.
What You Will Learn
How to establish and articulate your true
security requirements based on mission
How to determine the threat and the capabilities of a threatening organization
How to tie the results of physical security inspections to vulnerabilities
How to use vulnerability funding for risk mitigation
How to examine the efficiency of your existing security systems
How to compare effectiveness of security solutions using Cost Benefit Analysis
How to draft a comprehensive security program using Risk Based Assessment
What technology applications are available to help mitigate risk
How to present a comprehensive program using Risk Based Investment Strategies
