Security has become increasingly diverse and specialized. We can no longer narrowly view offenders as being threats only from the outside, who can be thwarted through perimeter access controls and patrols. The reality is that the threat may also be from within – on premises everyday, for instance, as a disgruntled employee or a spy. Simultaneously, the internet and information technology (IT) systems have resulted in serious vulnerabilities. Security is an essential component of comprehensive protection when an entity is faced with a variety of hazards which are not criminal in nature, such as adverse weather or a utility failure.

Everyday all around the world, thousands of IT systems are compromised. Some are attacked purely for the kudos of doing so, others for political motives, but most commonly they are attacked to steal money or commercial secrets. Are you confident that your cyber security governance regime minimizes the risks of this happening? My experience suggests that in practice, few companies have got this right. If not, your IT systems may have already been compromised, attackers could already have your new product plans, bidding positions or research; they may already be running your process control systems.

We live in a world of many threats and hazards, and we learn of people killed or injured and property stolen or destroyed from a host of sources. At the same time, we all differ in our behavior in trying to avoid losses. Most people practice various forms of security and safety in their personal lives, such as locking homes and vehicles. Both private and public sectors spend enormous sums of money and resources seeking to prevent deaths, injuries, theft, and property damage from a host of threats and hazards. Whether in business or government, people are hired to perform protection functions.

Training of security personnel is a major issue and is of the utmost importance prior to duty assignments. Personnel must know their job responsibilities and how best to protect people and assets while conforming to law and company policies and procedures. A professional performs a service to help society, possesses specialized knowledge and skills, follows a code of ethics, and strives for self-improvement.
