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,

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 with a take-home, strategic "guide" to help
you in your physical security planning.
