A variety of five qualitative and quantitative methodologies are discussed in detail. Students will learn the differences between qualitative and quantitative risk analysis. They will use a variety of methodologies by evaluating single or multiple buildings and critical infrastructure nodes. Three full days of field evaluations assessing lighting, electric systems, drinking water, infrastructure and perimeters are an integral part of this ...

SECURITY and ENGINEERING personnel involved in designing entry control facilities, both vehicular or pedestrian, will attend this three-day course. Students will focus their attention on the features required for the effective, efficient and safe operation of access and entry control points at compounds and controlled area perimeters. Items discussed include; calculating lane queuing, guard shack and guard manning requirements, barrier resista...

This three-day workshop was developed with the asset owner in mind. Students will learn how to design CCTV systems for different types of secure level areas, compounds and installations. Students will be able to design their own intrusion detection (IDS) and access control (ACS) systems. Students will ultimately combine camera systems with video analytics, with ACS and IDS. This very interactive course has numerous case studies built into the...

Geared for those who must evaluate training plans, drills and other operational factors during extreme conditions. A series of table-top and field evaluations are designed and tested. Exposes students to armed forces style combat training type stress. Upon completion student will be able to design, development and conduct live, virtual and constructive (LVC) drills and exercises that include “best practices” from a security perspec...

With electronic technologies quickly converging in the physical security vertical it is paramount to understand first, the basics of physical security, secondly, how this new technology will effect the physical security landscape of the future, and thirdly, how the correct physical security environment can actually enhance the technologies effectiveness. Every good physical security program starts with assessing and quantifying criticality, th...

During this unclassified webinar we will discuss; what happened, why it occurred, what could have been done to prevent it, and strategies to prevent another occurrence in all government facilities.

Similar to the Maintaining Control Workshop conducted by the US Army Surface Deployment and Distribution Traffic Engineering Agency, this class is intended for government, military and contractor SECURITY or ENGINEERING personnel involved in designing entry control facilities. The curriculum focuses on the design features required for the effective and efficient operation of access control points at installation perimeters and controlled areas...

A three-day workshop intensely focused on writing criteria for antiterrorism, continuity-of-operations (COOP) and resiliency, information security, physical security, operational security plans and operating procedures to meet government requirements. What should be included in each type of plan is discussed in detail. Students will learn how to translate company policy into the five functional areas of every good plan. They will also learn ho...

This workshop examines the relationships between theory, energy conservation, and social and environmental factors for man-made and natural light applications. Two full days focus on the effective use of lighting the environment to augment other forms of security technology. The effects of light on human physiological and psychological behavior are discussed in detail.

After attending this unclassified Workshop, students will be able to oversee design and construction of a sensitive compartmented information facility (SCIF) which meets official government requirements for a secure area where classified information is handled. The stringent physical security requirements; such as, access control systems, thickness of doors, the strength of concrete and the use of alarms, and acoustical controls which prevent...
