Security Thought Leadership: in conversation with... ·

2024/05/12

Attracting new recruits to the security sector has long been heralded as a challenge. Much more of a hurdle, albeit one that is rarely discussed, is the engagement of those who are teenagers, and particularly those who are most disaffected and at risk of taking the wrong path. On the face of it security would seem to have a role to play, but does it? What does good engagement with teenagers look like? Are traditional recruitment and engagement strategies sufficient? What would need to happen ...

The traditional problem, suppliers want to charge more for a better service versus clients who want to pay less for a more targeted service, has been and is being played out globally. The difficulty of recruiting personnel, and keeping them, plus the opportunities provided by technology against a background of economic austerity are factors that are giving this topic both extra attention and a modern focus.This webinar will discuss:• The factors that clients need to consider to drive optimal ...

All those involved with security know about the importance of learning from past events, but how good is the security sector at preparing in advance? What are the options to help prepare?

What is the true cost of economic crime?

Security Thought Leadership: in conversation with... ·

2024/05/12

Estimating the cost of economic crime has always proved challenging, not least because of various definitions adopted and offences included. Whereas some reports claim that accurate methods of measuring losses have been developed in the last decade, is this really the case? Not only are many of these estimates, but they rarely include the ‘hidden’ costs of fraud, such as the personal costs to victims, time spent investigating and rectifying issues, and the reputational damage to businesses.

Security Thought Leadership: in conversation with... ·

2024/05/12

There is increasing evidence that economic criminals operate under the radar of crime prevention measures and outside of the mainstay of law enforcement activity. In some countries at least (and the UK is an example) the majority of crime is fraud (and related offences). Offenders say different types of economic crime are easy to commit, unlikely to pursued by authorities, and so the chances of avoiding capture are high, and moreover this is lucrative. Is this situation true? How can we begin...

2024/05/12

It is good business to be seen to be supporting the ‘green agenda’, and certainly bad news follows or is likely to follow an organisation that is not committed. But how would we know? Do security professionals really care and if so how is that reflected? The ‘environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG)’ concept is becoming more renowned but in what ways is it different and what are the barriers to embedding it in security practice? For example, what does the ‘social’ part of ESG refe...

The research on the effectiveness of CPTED has been quite positive, but is it evolving logically and should this be a focus of attention for security professionals. Does the modern variation need to include the additional ‘M’ for management? What did Covid teach us about how to use space wisely and were CPTED principles relevant? In seeking to tackle bribery, slum control, cartels, gated communities has it extended beyond its remit and value or does it provide the essential tool to guide secu...
