CRJ 175 - Princ Phys Pers/Oper Security

Institution:

West Virginia Northern Community College

Subject:

Criminal Justice

Description:

The various dimensions of security include physical, personal and operational measures. Security officers must not only prevent unauthorized access to equipment, installations, material, and documents; and safeguard against espionage, sabotage, damage and theft, but protect VIPs from kidnapping and assassination and employees from discussing operational plans from the workplace. All public, private and government agencies face new and complex security challenges across the full spectrum of operations. Globalization and new security threats challenge security operations, and could include the control of populations, information dominance, multinational and interagency connectivity, antiterrorism or counterterrorism, target hardening, VIP protection and the use of other physical- security assets as a versatile force multiplier. This course will prepare the security and law enforcement professional to operate in any environment that requires a need for security measures.
