(Day one); 1:00pm (Day Two) 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 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.
What You Will Learn
- How
to create or improve your security measures
- What
to do if faced with a physical security threat
- How
to train guards and other staff to react to various security
situations
- How
to communicate a threat to your staff
- How
to improve security conditions at your facility to mitigate
disasters, acts of violence, and terrorism
A Homeland Defense Journal "Certificate of Completion"
will be provided to all attendees upon conclusion of the workshop.

(www.physicalsecurityhandbook.com)
The
Integrated Physical Security Handbook is a manual for
commercial and government building and facility security
managers who are responsible for developing their security
plans based on estimated risks and threats -- natural
or terrorist. This book was produced under the leadership
of the Homeland Defense Journal and written by
a team of nationally recognized A&E and security
experts. This site offers a subscription to the handbook,
quarterly updates and on-line library. The cost for
subscription ranges from $99 to $149 per year. |

handbook for facility security managers and all managers
and supervisors tasked with the security and safety
of the buildings in which they operate and the people
with whom they work. It sets out how to manage change
and how to conduct crucial threat and risk assessments,
the basis for all integrated physical security planning.
Then, using checklists and standard practices, it provides
a hands-on, how-to guide that leads you in a user-friendly
way through all the steps and processes needed to evaluate,
design and implement an effective integrated physical
security system.
