Threat Assessments: For Close Protection & Security Management, Paperback

The Threat Assessment (TA) is the most important of all the procedures carried out in any security or business operation but even the most basic TAs are regularly overlooked. The reason for a TA is to identify anything that might threaten you, your team and your overall operation. People carry out basic forms of TAs all the time: Which bars are safe to drink in, where is it safe to walk at night, do I need locks on the windows of my home etc. A threat assessment must identify all threats that you are exposed to whether it is physical assault, injury, terrorism, black mail, being embarrassed or discredited, health problems, loss of assets or dangerous weather conditions etc. When you identify a threat, you must take procedures to minimalism it. In the world of security operations, most people only look for the threat of physical assault, but you must look as deeply as you can and cover every angle. In this book we will show you how to properly compile threat assessments for close protection operations and security management projects.
