The following classifications of security are also within their scope.
PRINCIPLES OF INDUSTRIAL SECURITY MANAGEMENT
Appropriate, Intelligent, and Realistic SECURITY PLANNING:
The flexibility of the Security Operations Plans
Unity of Command and Efforts
Sufficiency of Resources
Effectiveness of Security Operational Activities and Programs
Morale, Welfare, and Benefits Programs
Transparency of the Security Contract and Documentary Requirements
CONCEPTS OF SECURITY AND SAFETY
GENERAL GUIDELINES TO BE STRICTLY OBSERVE BY SECURITY/LADY GUARDS:
On what level of alertness are we?
GENERAL PHILOSOPHIES
SPECIFIC POWERS DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES
Warning: The strict provisions of the Revised Rules of Court, Rule 113 must be religiously adhered to and complied with by arresting officer to avoid being charged with violation of human rights and constitutional rights of any person.
SECURITY PLANNING is a corporate and executive responsibility. It involves knowing the objectives of security and the means and methods to reach those objectives or goals must then be evolved. In short, security planning is a decision making process.
The Contents of the Security Plan are as follows:
SECURITY SURVEY is the process of conducting an exhaustive physical examination and thorough inspection of all operational systems and procedures of a facility.
Purpose of Security Survey
SECURITY INSPECTION is the process of conducting a physical examination to determine compliance with established security policies and procedures as a result of a security survey.
SECURITY HAZARD is any act or condition which may result in the compromise of information, loss of life, loss or destruction of property, or disruption of the objective of the installation.
Types of Hazard
Types of Pilferer
TYPES OF SECURITY
SPECIFIC GUIDELINES AND CONSIDERATIONS
VIP/DIGNITARY (PERSONAL) SECURITY
BOMBS AND EXPLOSIVES SECURITY
TRANSPORTATION SECURITY
AIRPORT SECURITY
MARITIME SECURITY
TERMINAL & TRANSPORTATION SECURITY
Are emerging forms of security due to terroristic activity. While both seek to exploit the security weaknesses of transportation, they do so for very different reasons.
DOCUMENTS AND INFORMATION SECURITY
Is physical and technical security involving the protection of documents and classified papers from loss, access by unauthorized persons, damage, theft, and compromise through disclosure.
PHYSICAL SECURITY
This concerned with the physical measures adopted to prevent unauthorized access to equipment, facilities, materials, and documents, and to safeguard them against espionage, sabotage, damage, and theft. Another definition described it as the system of barrier places between a potential intruder and the matter to be protected.
PERSONNEL SECURITY
COMMUNICATION SECURITY
Involves defenses against the interception of communication transmissions which includes:
HOTEL SECURITY
Is the protection resulting from the application of various measures which, safeguard hotel guests and their personal effects, hotel properties, and functions in hotel restaurants, bars, and clubs.
BANKING & FINANCE SECURITY
This is the protection resulting from the application of the various measures which, safeguard cash and assets in storage, in transits, and during the transactions.
CRISIS SECURITY
This is the protection of rich/scion, industrial magnates, and political leaders against kidnapping for economic, political, emotional, or nationalistic purposes. This is a personalized form of protection that resembles VIP protection due to the positive inimical act of a malevolent actor and the vulnerability of the person being protected.
OPERATIONAL SECURITY
This is physical security that deals with the protection of processes, formulas, patents, and other activities. In industrial security, this is called TRADE SECRET and is susceptible to both espionage and sabotage.
Trade secrets are intellectual property (IP) rights on confidential information that may be sold or licensed. In some instances, it is not protected by IP law but needs to be protected because there lies the trademark of success on one's company.
The unauthorized acquisition, use, or disclosure of such secret information in a manner contrary to honest commercial practices by others is regarded as an unfair practice and a violation of the trade secret protection.
OTHER SPECIAL TYPES OF SECURITY.
Those types are adaptations, variations, innovations, and/or modifications of physical security, they are the following:
TYPES OF GUARD FORCES
A SECURITY GUARD FORCE may be defined as a group of forces of selected men, trained and organized into a functional group for the purpose of protecting operational processes from those disruptions which impede the efficiency or halt operations at a particular plant, facility, institution, or special activity.
