About
This Workshop
The
key to protecting your facility is to use solid risk management
techniques and expertise to identify and implement cost-effective
security solutions. Physical Security for Government
Facilities will teach you basic defense measures (including
protection basics for outside penetration) and how to develop
countermeasures to reduce security risk . This course will help
you create, or improve, your organization-wide security plan to
improve your defenses against terrorist attacks, theft, vandalism,
intruders, etc.

facilities are not yet where they need to be to manage various
physical security threats. Knowing how to protect your most vital
buildings and systems -- and your employees -- should be your
number one priority. Attend this very important workshop to protect
your most important assets.
You'll
also receive handouts which will provide you with a take-home,
strategic "guide" to help you in your physical security
planning.
