CHARITY CHALLENGE:
SECURITY GUARD “TAP OUT”
To: “The Big Four” Man-Guarding Companies in the US

Let’s have some fun, raise $1,000,000 for charity, and show our security
officers how important they are to us!

I believe the most important person at any of our companies is the security
officer who works the toughest post on the night shift.

I challenge the owners (or CEOs if company is owned by private equity) of the
Big Four man-guarding companies to a “Security Guard Tap Out” for charity.
You pick your toughest guard post anywhere in the US. You and I will put on
your uniforms and stand guard until one of us taps out or walks off the post.
Whoever taps out first has to donate $250,000 to the charity of the winner’s
choice.

This security guard tap out will be fun. It will take us back to our roots and
remind us of the core of our business. It will show our security officers that
they truly are the most important people in our companies. It will show our
customers where our priorities truly lie. And lastly, it will raise $1,000,000 for
charity!

In order to commit up to $1,000,000 of my own money, I had to get

permission from the Boss, my wife Kathy. She asked me why I was doing this.
I told her I want to show our security officers how much they really mean to
me and our industry; plus, we can raise $1,000,000 for charity. Then lastly, I
said, “Can you imagine how much I can learn from working side by side with
4 of the smartest, most successful executives on the planet?! It’s priceless.”
She laughed at me and said, “In the old days, you used to work a lot of guard
posts, but lately, you haven’t. This will be good for you and get you back to
your roots. Go for it; just don’t lose!”

Please accept my challenge for fun and a great cause in person by coming to
our ASIS booth 3903 in Dallas. Or you can call me on my cell at 404-536-1140,
and I will come to your booth!

WASTEWATER WATER REUSE MARIJUANA

The 2017 edition of the United
Nations World Water Development
Report, Wastewater: The Untapped
Resource, demonstrates how im-
proved wastewater management
generates social, environmental,
and economic benefits essential
for sustainable development and
water security.
TERRORISM INFORMATON
A disconnect in intelligence sharing
among the European Union’s mem-
ber states means countries aren’t
getting the information they need,
according to an article in European
View. For example, some terrorists
in the Paris and Brussels attacks
were known in other EU states.
U.S. Secretary of the Interior Ryan
Zinke announced that the U.S.
Bureau of Reclamation awarded
$23 million to communities in seven
states for planning, designing, and
constructing water recycling and
reuse projects. A list of the projects
and other resources can be found
on the WateReuse website.
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
The artificial intelligence (AI) mar-
ket is projected to reach $70 billion
by 2020 and will impact consumers,
enterprises, and governments, ac-
cording to The Future of AI is Here,
a PricewaterhouseCoopers initia-
tive. Most consumers believe that AI
will help solve complex problems.

EDITOR’S NOTE
Editor-in-Chief
TERESA ANDERSON
EMOTIONAL
U
nder the classical view of
emotional expression, emo-
tions are things that happen
to you. Being angry or sad
is an unbidden reaction. This school
of thought posits that emotions are
universal expressions, common to all
humans and in all cultures.
Except, maybe they aren’t. When it
comes to feeling emotion and reading
the emotions of others, the latest sci-
ence says that your mileage may vary.
In her new book How Emotions are
Made, Lisa Feldman Barrett claims
that emotions aren’t objective.
Barrett, a professor of psychology at
Northeastern University in Boston,
contends that emotions are learned
behavior and are developed differently
in each individual’s brain. An emotion,
she says, is not your reaction to the
world, it’s your brain’s interpretation
of the world. And these interpretations
vary widely from culture to culture.
If this theory is correct, emotions
can’t be used as a cultural barome-
ter because they are not universally
shared. In an episode of the Invisibilia
podcast, Barrett said, “For every emo-
tion category that we have in the U.S.
that we think is biologically basic and
universal, there’s at least one culture
in the world that doesn’t really possess
a concept for that emotion and where
people don’t really feel that emotion.”
Barrett says that emotions are just
the brain’s way of processing inputs
and predicting what they might mean.
“If you think about it from a brain’s
0917 Editor's Note .indd 14
standpoint, it’s trapped in a dark,
silent box called your skull, and has
no access to the causes of the sen-
sations it receives,” Barrett said to
WIRED’s Emma Bryce. “I think the
way emotions are made is not special:
your brain makes an emotion by using
prior experiences of emotion to predict
and explain incoming sensory inputs
and guide action,” Barrett said.
If applied to security, this activity
is strikingly similar to the process of
managing risk. Not only does risk vary
from company to company, but secu-
rity managers must evaluate inputs,
apply past experiences, and predict
future outcomes to protect people,
property, and assets. One organization
may be willing to accept a particular
risk that another cannot tolerate.
This month’s cover story discusses
the industry best practice for man-
aging risk: enterprise security risk
management (ESRM). By adopting
ESRM, security managers can develop
effective security programs to address
all potential threats from cybercrime
to theft to reputation management.
Security professionals can also ensure
that, as strategic corporate leaders,
they have a seat at the table.
Learn more about your inputs at
ASIS 2017 in Dallas, Texas, September
25-28. From ESRM education to risk
mitigation strategies in the exhibit
hall, the entire week is dedicated to
helping security professionals process
timely information and turn it into
action.

Wastewater is no
longer seen as a
problem in need of a
solution, rather it is
part of the solution.
“Wastewater is gaining momen-
tum as a reliable alternative
source of water,” says the recently
released United Nations World
Water Development Report for 2017:
Wastewater, the Untapped Resource.
“Wastewater is no longer seen as a
problem in need of a solution, rather
it is part of the solution to challenges
that societies are facing today,” the
report finds. “Wastewater can also be a
cost-efficient and sustainable source of
energy, nutrients, organic matter, and
other useful by-products.”
Given the skyrocketing demand for
water, the positive effect that waste-
water reuse could have on the global
water crisis is “immense,” says Robert
Glennon, a water policy expert at the
University of Arizona and author of
Unquenchable: America’s Water Crisis
and What to Do About It.
“This is a very big deal,” Glennon
tells Security Management. He cites the
example of the state of Arizona, which
has been active in reusing water for a few
decades now. Facilities like golf courses
and ballparks can consume large
amounts of water, he says, so Arizona’s
water reuse practices have been helpful.
Moreover, state officials have formed
WateReuse Arizona, a group that
assists communities in achieving
sustainable water supplies through
reuse. Among other things, the group
offers scholarships for Arizona college
students interested in specializing in
water reuse and reclamation.
On the U.S. federal level, the U.S.
Department of the Interior announced
in May that it awarded $23.6 million to
seven states for researching, planning,
0917 News & Trends C.indd 17
designing, and constructing water
reuse projects.
Often, treating wastewater so that it
can be reused for agricultural purposes
is less expensive than purifying it to the
level where it can be used as drinking
water. Given this, countries are becom-
ing more aggressive in their water reuse
programs, according to the report.
For example, in 2013, 71 percent of
the wastewater collected in the Arab
states was safely treated, and 21 percent
was being reused, mostly for irrigation
and groundwater recharge.
Other regions are realizing the poten-
tial benefits of wastewater reuse. In
the Asia Pacific region, some countries
have discovered that byproducts from
domestic wastewater, such as nitrogen,
phosphorous, and salt, have potential
economic value.
For example, case studies in
Southeast Asia have shown that rev-
enues generated from wastewater
byproducts, such as fertilizer, are sig-
nificantly higher than the operational
costs of treating the wastewater. That
provides an economic incentive for
water reuse, the report finds.
However, “more needs to be done
across the region to support municipal
and local governments in managing
urban wastewater and capturing its
resource benefits,” the report adds.
In Latin America and the Caribbean,
urban wastewater treatment has

almost doubled since the late 1990s,
so that between 20 and 30 percent of
wastewater collected in all sewer sys-
tems is now treated.
“Treated wastewater could be an
important source of water supply in
some cities, particularly those located
in arid areas (such as Lima), or where
long-distance transfers are required to
meet growing demands, particularly
during drought (such as São Paulo),”
the report finds.
While progress in reusing wastewater
has been made in the United States and
around the world, there are still con-
straining factors hindering even more
progress, Glennon says. One is cost;
some localities in developing countries
struggle to afford construction of waste-
water treatment plants.
Another is that countries like China
and India continue to use unsustainable
practices when it comes to their water
supply, such as “pumping groundwater
with impunity.” India, for example, has
yet to truly face up to its water shortage
crisis and change its practices. “The
rules of groundwater pumping remain so
relaxed,” Glennon says.
And in places where water scarcity
is currently not a huge issue, some offi-
cials have the attitude of, “Why should
I bother to reuse water if I can just drill
a well?” Glennon says. He compares
this attitude to the mistaken belief that
an unlimited number of straws can be
placed in the same glass—eventually,
all the liquid will be sucked out.
In addition, there are some security
issues related to the practice of waste-
water reuse, says Yves Duguay, CEO
and founder of HCIWorld, who has had
on-the-ground experience with audits of
water works and other infrastructure sys-
tems. For example, systematic controls
in the process are needed to ensure that
health, safety, and security requirements
are maintained. “Most of the time, my
audits have shown a lack of oversight and
controls, along with poor contract perfor-
mance management. This can increase
the risk for water reuse,” he says.
This is doubly important in areas
where waste management operations,

which can include water reuse, are
linked to corruption and even orga-
nized crime. “How certain are we that
waste, solid or liquid, is being disposed
as expected and regulated?” he asks.
Still, developed countries like the
United States and Canada can show
leadership by developing a systematic
approach to the recycle and reuse of
wastewater, Duguay says. And since it is
not an “in-your-face issue,” wastewater
reuse needs more awareness and advo-
cacy so it is not crowded out by more
publicized political concerns. “There is
little room on our governments’ agenda
for such a topic, unless it is talked about
and frequently communicated to the
general public,” he explains.
Nonetheless, in areas of the world
where water scarcity hits hardest, it

PHYSICAL SECURITY
BY LAWRENCE J. FENNELLY AND MARIANNA PERRY. Butterworth-Heinemann;
Elsevier.com; 204 pages; $79.95.
THE SECOND EDITION of Physical
Security: 150 Things You Should
Know is an excellent reference for
security practitioners and managers.
Written by Lawrence J. Fennelly
and Marianna Perry, CPP, the book
covers the most common concepts
and concerns in security today;
from lighting and CPTED to cyber
and drones. To borrow from the
book’s opening lines, it is a roadmap
to building and enhancing an
organization’s security program.
The authors do a great job of
organizing an overwhelming amount
of material. The book is likely to serve
more as a go-to reference for a partic-
ular topic rather than to be read from
cover to cover.
A security practitioner with a fun-
damental understanding of security
will find this book to be an excep-
tional resource for planning security
REVIEWER: Yan Byalik, CPP, is the security administrator for the City of

and has worked in a variety of security roles in higher education, amusement
park, and telecommunication security sectors since 2001. He is the assistant

will ultimately become a necessity
to reuse treated wastewater, because
supply will not hold out, Glennon says.
“Some places will have to use that for
drinking water—there is simply no
upgrades, training security staff, and
finding justification for best practices
with the C-suite. Many sections are
nothing more than easy-to-follow
checklists, so retrieving the informa-
tion is remarkably simple and quick.
The broad range of topics
addressed in the book makes it
impossible for the authors to dig too
deep on any single issue, so many of
the sections do not offer full expla-
nations. This, however, does not take
anything away from the quality or
usefulness of the book.
The concepts are outlined in care-
fully selected paragraphs that provide
just enough detail to jog the memory
or provide a starting point for further
research from more-focused sources.
All in all, this book offers great ideas
and best practices for a broad range
of security topics, not just physical
security.
alternative,” Glennon explains. Duguay
echoes this view: “There is no doubt
that we need to control our utilization
of water; it’s a unique resource that is
not infinite,” he says.
In the end, the UN report argues
that, in a world where limited water
resources are increasingly stressed by
over-abstraction, pollution, and climate
change, it is imperative for officials
around the globe to focus on wastewa-
ter treatment and reuse.
“Neglecting the opportunities arising
from improved wastewater manage-
ment,” the report concludes, “is noth-
ing less than unthinkable.”

PARTNERS IN
CRIMESTOPPING
A FEW YEARS AGO in Australia, a
group of industry representatives and
Australian government officials got
together to make a plan. They wanted
to fight financial crime and terrorism in
a way never done before, by designing
a new system for discovering, interpret-
ing, and disrupting financial crime.
In May, the plan came to fruition
with the formal launch of the Fintel
Alliance, an initiative that is being
billed as the world’s first private-pub-
lic partnership aimed at combatting
money laundering and terror financ-
ing. The alliance was established by
the Australian Transaction Reports
and Analysis Centre (AUSTRAC), which
is Australia’s financial intelligence
agency with regulatory responsibility
for anti-money laundering and coun-
terterrorism financing.
Organizers say that one of the unique
aspects of the alliance is that its diverse
team members—representatives from the
financial sector, nongovernmental orga-
nizations, law enforcement, and national
security agencies—work cheek-by-jowl

The alliance has three operational
goals: to help private sector partners

Under the alliance umbrella, indus-

will attempt to advance these goals by
working together to design initiatives
in the fight against crime. It will also
focus on developing a more streamlined
and efficient regulation framework in
the areas of anti-money laundering and
counterterrorism financing.

SOFT TARGETS
BY JENNIFER HESTERMAN AND MICHAEL FAGEL; CRC Press; crcpress.com; 494
pages; $89.95.
Once upon a time, security pro-
fessionals did not worry about soft
targets and crisis management.
The security management function
was compartmentalized, and the
discipline of crisis management did
not yet exist. Those days are gone
forever. Today, security managers
are expected to be multi-disciplined
business partners with the ability to
perform several functions at once:
security director, emergency planner,
first responder, analyst, teacher, and
trainer are just some of the roles they
might fill.
How can one be expected to
understand so many diverse yet
interconnected roles at the same
time? Reading Soft Targets and
Crisis Management may help. This
impressive book is the best security
and crisis management compendium
available today. It is an essential tool
that should be in the library of every
security and emergency manager

and terrorism has made soft targets

British intelligence officials imme-
diately announced that they would
no longer share information from the
investigation with their American
counterparts; Manchester Mayor Andy
Burnham told newspaper reporters that
the country couldn’t risk sharing any
more information.
The change in policy upsets a history
of open information sharing between
the United Kingdom and the United
States during crises, Walsh notes.
“They share this kind of intelligence
on autopilot, and maybe with good
reason,” he says. “They planned it in

This book is general enough to

information to partners who may be
able to help them with the investiga-
tion. The assumption would be that the
recipient would not be sharing it with
the media at all, or especially more or
less immediately.”
The EU has its own intelligence-shar-
ing challenges. Although Europol has
established several means of intelli-
gence sharing across Europe, it has
continued to face problems connecting
the dots.
“The recent terrorist attacks in
Belgium and France have once again
highlighted the contradiction between
the seemingly free movement of ter-
rorists across Europe and the lack of
EU-wide intelligence sharing,” notes
Oldrich Bureš in the policy journal
European View. “Due to their earlier
criminal activities, most perpetrators of
the attacks in both Paris and Brussels
were known to the various security
agencies in several EU member states.”
Indeed, a man who gave logistical sup-
port to the terrorists who carried out the
November 2015 Paris attacks had been
investigated by both Belgian and Dutch
police, but neither the EU nor French
authorities were aware of the man.
While Europol has established
multiple tools for reporting and col-
lecting national security and terrorism
intelligence, it cannot conduct its own
investigations and instead facilitates the
exchange of information. However, given
the cultural and linguistic diversity of
the 28 EU member states, as well as their
differing political and judicial frame-
works, sharing intelligence through
Europol may not be as effective as more
informal arrangements.
Likewise, the United Nations’
counterterrorism efforts lack coher-
ence, according to an issue brief by the
Council on Foreign Relations. The UN
alone runs more than 30 agencies that
conduct counterterrorism activity.
“Too often, these various elements
are uncoordinated and even compet-
ing,” the report notes. A UN committee

impact was negligible “given the lack
of regular updates and expansion of
the list, making it an inflexible mech-
anism,” especially as terrorist groups
become less hierarchical.
Walsh points out that even successful
intelligence-sharing relationships face
larger philosophical concerns—deter-
mining when to share information, and
whether the receiving country will treat
that information appropriately.
“Typically, when you cooperate with
another country, say on trade policy
or an alliance, you want to be able to
observe how they’re behaving to see if
they’re living up to their commitments,”
Walsh explains. “That’s exceptionally
hard to do in the area of intelligence
because it’s information and secrets.”
Nations also need to know whether it
is necessary to share intelligence they
have collected. After 9/11, intelligence

agencies agreed to share secrets more
freely with each other to prevent
another large attack. However, the effort
backfired when leaks through Edward
Snowden and WikiLeaks made agencies
scale back their sharing to need-to-
know information.
“It’s really hard to know when
you actually have ironclad intelli-
gence that something bad is going to
happen,” Walsh explains. “You have
so much intelligence that’s collected
on individual people, like travel
records, so the problem is connecting
the dots. How do we even know that
we should share that?”
Trust is essential to intelligence-shar-
ing relationships, whether it’s trusting
that the information is accurate or trust-
ing that the receiving country will treat
the information appropriately.

the United States had been tapping
German Chancellor Angela Merkel’s

and faux pas by the new administration
could eventually take a toll.
“It’s troubling that the Manchester
investigation leaks happened so shortly
after the Israel episode,” Walsh says. “It
might suggest to foreign governments
that there’s a pattern, especially if that
information was shared with the United
States and it was leaked by the White
House, in particular.”

boo. Using Brivo, COCO can easily dis-
tribute keycards to its clients and man-
age membership usage and levels.
To set up the system, Brivo represen-
tatives come to COCO’s space and add
card readers to the appropriate doors.
They also set up schedules and the
different access levels for membership
types.
COCO has one membership accoun-
tant who works out of the company’s
headquarters and oversees assign-
ing new members a keycard number
through Brivo. “It’s all digital, so it can
be done remotely,” she notes.
A community manager at the mem-
ber’s location—the lead COCO employee
for that site—can then log on to Brivo
and see which card number has been
assigned for that client, add the number
to their member profile in Bamboo, and
distribute it.
Changing, granting, and revoking
access levels, as well as keeping track of
when members come and go throughout
the building, are all managed through
the Brivo platform.
“Say you want to upgrade a member
from part-time to full-time. We’re able
to just go into Brivo and quickly change
your access. It’s active the moment
that you do it,” she notes. “That’s ac-
tually been really helpful for us, given
we have all this variability in types of
membership.”

When a member badges in, a wealth
of information comes up on the Brivo
dashboard for the community manager
to see. “Their picture, their name, their
membership level, how many times
they’ve checked in already that month,
it immediately shows up,” she says. “So
it tells you in real time exactly who’s in
your space and when.”
The business value of OnAir is im-
mense for COCO, Dorn points out, be-
cause the company can tell how often
members are actually using the space,
and whether they have made payments,
as soon as they present their access card
to the door reader.
“Let’s say someone is delinquent
on payment. As soon as the member
checks in, there’s going to be big red
circle with an exclamation point [on the
dashboard]–you can’t miss it,” she says.
“It’s definitely helped us lower the sheer

0917 ks-Case Study C.indd 31
amount of delinquent payments that we
have, and receive that payment.”
When a member badges in, Brivo also
alerts the community manager if that
person hasn’t been in the space very of-
ten that month.
“If we can find a member who we
consider at-risk, who hasn’t been using
the space, and we’re alerted to that we
can reach out to them, invite them to an
event, or try whatever we can to reen-
gage them,” Dorn says.
COCO is also in the initial stages of us-
ing Brivo MobilePass, which lets COCO
staff remotely lock and unlock doors via
a smart device, for members who want
to access the space after-hours but for-
get their keycard.
Because of how easily it can deacti-
vate and reactivate access, COCO also
encourages members who leave the
company to keep their keycards.

“The goal is to try to get the member
to come back. So if you have that card
and you come back, you’re already set
up in our system, all we have to do is
reactivate the card and then we’ll also
waive any setup fees,” Dorn says.
She notes the combination of security
and business insights from Brivo has
been tremendous for COCO.
“Brivo as a security system has
helped us go from being a group of
people working out of a space to a full-
fledged company,” she says. “It really
helps us manage all of the different
types of membership and the stages of
business they’re in.”

you can’t write a program,” Rao explains.
“Usually we get an input, we write spe-
cific instructions that produce an output;
we can do that if we know what it is that
we are trying to do. But when we don’t
know that, it becomes hard.”
This is where the two subcategories of
machine learning come into play: super-
vised and unsupervised learning.
Unsupervised machine learning
uses data to train the system to create
algorithms and the machine is contin-
uously learning, says Kahn, who is the
former director of cybersecurity for the
White House’s national security staff.
Unsupervised machine learning algo-
rithms are “continuously resetting, so
they are learning what’s normal inside
an organization and what’s abnormal
inside the organization, and continu-
ously learning based on the new data
that’s fed into it,” he explains.
With supervised learning, humans
train the system using training or
labeled data to teach the system the
algorithm to look for to identify cer-
tain types of patterns or anomalies.
However, the two types of learning can
be used in combination—they do not
need to be kept separate.
For instance, supervised machine
learning can be used to allow analysts

to provide feedback for algorithms the
system is using, “so if analysts see some-
thing that our unsupervised machine
learning algorithms detect that is a false
positive or a true positive, the analysts
can flag it as such,” Kahn says. “That
feedback is fed into our algorithms to
power our supervised machine learning
loop…you can think of it as two comple-
mentary loops reinforcing each other.”
Deep learning. One of the main
fears that many people have about the
increasing role AI will play in society
is that it will replace jobs that humans
now hold. While that might be the case

or customer service jobs, experts are

skeptical that AI can replace humans in
cybersecurity roles.
To make the kind of decisions cyber-
security analysts make, machines would
need to use deep learning—a subcategory
within supervised machine learning that
powers Google’s Deep Mind products
and IBM’s Watson. It uses neural network
techniques that are designed to mimic the
way the human brain works.
“I talked about supervised machine
learning in the sense of using training
data, to help educate algorithms about
the different types of patterns they
should look like,” Kahn says. “Deep
learning is that on steroids, in that
you’re typically taking huge amounts of
training data and passing them through
neural network algorithms to look for
patterns that a simpler supervised
machine learning algorithm would
never be able to pick up on.”
The problem with deep learning,
however, is that it requires vast amounts
of training data to run through the neu-
ral network algorithms.
One of the main fears
that many people have
about the increasing
role AI will play in
society is that it will
replace jobs that
humans now hold.
08/17/2017 11:49:19 AM

“Google, as you can imagine, has
massive amounts of training data for
that, so it can feed that training data at
huge scale into these neural networks
to power those deep learning algo-
rithms,” Kahn says. “In cybersecurity,
we don’t quite have that benefit. It’s
why deep learning algorithms have
been a little bit slower in terms of
adoption. There are not pools of labeled
cybersecurity data that can be used to
power deep learning algorithms.”
For cybersecurity, ideally, there would
be a huge inventory of labeled cyber-
security incidents that could be used
to create deep learning algorithms; the
inventory would have information about
how a site was compromised and what
exploit was used.
“In today’s environment, there is no
massive clearinghouse of that informa-
tion,” Kahn adds. “Companies generally
don’t want to share that information
with each other; it’s sensitive.”
This is holding back the cybersecurity
industry in terms of taking the next step
with AI, and Kahn says he doesn’t see
companies’ unwillingness to share data
changing any time soon.
“It’s going to be very hard—less from
the technical reasons and more from
the policy and legal reasons,” he says.
“I don’t know if we’ll ever get to a point
where companies are willing to share that
level of detail with each other to power
those types of deep learning algorithms.”
However, big companies who have
vast amounts of data may be able to
take advantage of deep learning in the
future, Kahn says.
AI today. Numerous cybersecurity
products are available today that market
themselves as an AI product, or one that
uses machine learning. These products
tend to be used to understand patterns
of threat actors and then look for abnor-
mal behavior within the end users’
system, Rao says.
For instance, a product could be used
to look at denial of service attacks, “how
that happens, the frequency at which
they are coming, and then developing
patterns that you can start observing
over a period of time,” he explains.

experience translates into viable text
as they articulate their viewpoints
through practical standards, charts,

COVER STORY | BY BRIAN J. ALLEN, CPP

Enterprise security risk management will raise

the profile of security from a task-bound trade to one
of the key business drivers in the C-suite.

SEP 2017 | SECURITY MANAGEMENT

UNTIL RECENTLY,
security has been considered a trade, with
practitioners fighting for proper standing
in the institutions they protect. But the
industry is now at a crossroads.
Before us lie two paths. One is a continu-
ation of the status quo. We may continue to
glide down this road, but it is not a self-de-
termined path. It has been chosen for us
because we have not clearly defined secu-
rity’s role. Given this failure to self-define,
security has traditionally been defined
by others by the task it performs, such as
information security, investigations, phys-
ical security, or executive protection. This
type of definition diminishes the value of
the security function; our role is more than
just our allocated tasks.
The second road is one of self-determina-
tion and opportunity. It offers a chance for
the industry to advance from a trade to a
fully respected profession. On this road, we
can take control of the dialogue, shape the
conversation surrounding our field, and
make our own way forward. As an indus-
try—with ASIS taking the lead—we can
keep advancing until security is considered
a profession.
How can we advance on this second
road? First we need a clear definition of
the role of security in the private sector. We
also need a core base of knowledge that
supports our understanding of that role,
which can be taught—not only to college
students, but to transitioning personnel
coming into our industry and to our hiring
managers. There also needs to be an estab-
lished expectation that practitioners will
ILLUSTRATIONS BY STEVE MCCRACKEN

share this knowledge of security’s role and

the core competencies associated with it.
ASIS International has already started
defining this role through the concept
of enterprise security risk management
(ESRM). With its embrace of ESRM, ASIS
has positioned our industry to travel down
the road of opportunity and self-determi-
nation, with ESRM as the guiding principle
to help chart our course.

protection. For each task, the skill set is
different, just like skill sets differ in any
other aspect of security: investigations,

for each.

Why We Need It
We need ESRM to move beyond the
tasks that security managers and their
teams are assigned. For instance, if you
manage physical security, your team
is the physical security team. If you do
investigations, you are an investigator. If
you manage information security, your
team is the information security team.

are the protests that fizzled out or were kept calm thanks to
smart security planning. What makes the difference between
a protest that boils over into violence and major disruption
and a protest that is steered, subtly or boldly, toward a peace-
ful outcome?

whether a protest will be peaceful or legal, but it is not his or

concerns: protecting the company’s people, property, informa-
tion, and reputation.
In a protest or riot situation, the protective effort takes on
special urgency and requires different methods from those
employed during normal operations. Protests and riots are
unstable, high-tension events that can have outcomes as serious
as loss of life, severe personal injuries, major property damage,
and complete stoppage of legitimate business activities.

PHYSICAL SECURITY | BY MARTIN HERMAN
IT’S IN THE DETAILS
While it is imperative to write out an overall physical and strategic
security approach, strategic details can help ensure a smooth
response to a protest.
LEGAL CONCERNS
Managers should make sure they understand the
company’s rights as well as legal restrictions.
Missteps can lead to legal problems and reputational
damage. It is especially important to check local and
state ordinances pertaining to photos, video, and
audio recording.
ONGOING SURVEILLANCE
The plan should call for continuing the
types of surveillance and countersurveillance
performed in the initial risk assessment. The
goal is to be able to anticipate new actions
and tactics, even during the incident.
COLLABORATION
The plan should assign staff to establish relationships
with law enforcement, fire, medical, and other
agencies. It may be useful to engage in joint training
with those agencies and to coordinate response
protocols in advance.
PROTESTER VIOLENCE
Management must also consider how it wishes
to respond to protester violence, property
destruction, and threats. In some cases,
companies opt to focus on collecting evidence
of illegal behavior instead of acting forcefully
to stop it. The idea is that it is easier and better
to win in the courts instead of on the street.
SPECIALIZED HELP
Many companies look for outside help when a
protest or riot is looming. Security needs will be
high, so extra staff will likely be required. Also,
because such events are rare, the usual proprietary
or contract security officers are unlikely to have the
necessary skills, knowledge, and experience needed.
0917 Herman C.indd 48
Some situations call for a high-visibil-
ity security profile designed to discour-
age protesters from harming the compa-
ny’s employees and property. In other
types of protests, a low-key, low-visibility
approach takes the wind out of the pro-
testers’ sails. In all cases, a disciplined,
documented approach leads to the best
outcomes—both on-site and in court.
It may be difficult to convince senior
management to spend money on plan-
ning and preparation if a protest does
not seem imminent. However, showing
coverage of recent protests that got out
of control may clarify the ramifications
of being unprepared. Images of burning
buildings, looters, broken windows,
and injured people on stretchers may
provide a reminder of what can happen
when inadequate precautions are taken.
ASSESSING CONFLICT
Security is not law enforcement. The
goal is not to arrest protesters but to pre-
vent problems. To address an upcoming
protest or riot, it is essential to assess
the threat based on intelligence collec-
tion. After gaining an understanding
of the threat, the security director can
choose a protective approach that best
fits the situation, applying various con-
cepts designed to calm the event and
prevent harm.
Intelligence gathering. A large
company with a well-developed security
department may have enough skilled
personnel to perform its own intelligence
gathering, while a smaller security
department may need outside help
through a risk assessment firm that spe-
cializes in addressing protests and riots.
Whoever performs the intelligence
collection should attempt to learn as
much as possible about the adversary,
including its prior tactics and level of
aggression. Conducting online research,
looking at social media, interviewing
law enforcement personnel, and speak-
ing with other companies that have
faced the group in the past can increase
understanding. Viewing videos of past
incidents can provide insight into the
adversary’s strategies and practices in
the hope of countering them.
08/15/2017 6:05:23 PM

In some cases, invisible counter-
surveillance may be appropriate. For
example, before a major international
economic summit, the author’s secu-
rity firm determined that a famous,
well-organized activist group wanted
to embarrass a company that was
headquartered in the city. To protect
that company, the author’s company
put the facility under covert surveil-
lance before the summit. The goal was
to detect odd behavior, such as a car
passing by the site multiple times to
conduct advance work for protesters,
or someone walking past the site and
taking pictures or notes, possibly for
planning a protest. Surveillance was
also designed to covertly determine
the best places for protesters to hang
banners. The company then took steps
to make those locations unavailable.
Surveillance and countersurveillance
are not foolproof. Dedicated protesters
0917 Herman C.indd 49
are aware of surveillance techniques
and have published guides for detecting
and eluding them.
Planning. Intelligence collection
should lead to some understanding of
the adversary, which in turn should
suggest an overall approach to pro-
tecting the site. However, finesse is
required. In some cases, a high-visi-
bility, high-security, high-deterrence
approach is appropriate. If the pro-
testers are known to be violent or the
site is especially vulnerable, a strong
approach may be called for. In many
corporate settings, by contrast, a low-
er-profile, less-provocative approach is
appropriate as a way to set expectations
for peaceful behavior without doing
anything to inflame the protesters.
Potential conflicts may be quelled
through unpredictability. The company
should generally not broadcast its
security plans but should aim to keep

protesters guessing. That way, they will
not know what types of security mea-
sures to combat. For example, if there
is a risk of insider collusion with the
protest, the company can send workers
home early, without any advance notice,
to reduce opportunities for sabotage.
Calm can also be preserved through
disciplined behavior by security staff
during the protest. They should not
engage in arguments with protesters or
return any abusive language. Protesters
like to goad security officers into inap-
propriate responses.
Officers should control any urge to
confront the protesters and instead
calmly use deflection and redirection,
with phrases like, “I hear and under-
stand what you are saying, but...”
Insulting protesters emboldens and
empowers them, whereas keeping cool
strengthens an officer’s control over the
situation and increases safety.

PHYSICAL SECURITY | BY MARTIN HERMAN
Make the company a less attractive
target by removing loose items that
could be used as projectiles from the
property and locking trash receptacles
to decrease locations where protesters
could plant bombs or set fires. Moving
company trucks inside the security
perimeter prevents vandalism against
those vehicles, and locking up propane
and oil tanks on-site keeps protesters
from igniting those items.
TAKING ACTION
If the intelligence-based risk assessment
suggests a significant risk, security
directors should assess the site’s
physical security strengths and vulner-
abilities and develop a well-rounded
security plan—long before a security
response is required. A detailed plan
is needed regardless of whether the
company itself or an outside security
firm will be providing security during
the incident.
Site assessment. Taking stock of
a site’s strengths and vulnerabilities
makes it possible to identify gaps that
may need to be filled before the inci-
dent. Site strengths might include a
high or isolated position, perimeter bar-
riers, building access control, security
video cameras and intrusion alarms,
fire protection, emergency plans, and
a security officer force. Vulnerabilities
might include a low position, a lack of
setback from the street, multiple routes
in and out, and a location that is close
to a riot’s point of origin.
Having completed the assessment,
the company will have a better idea
of what additional security measures
are necessary to protect the site during
the incident. For example, it might opt
to strengthen key controls, establish
an outer perimeter with a temporary
chain link fence, increase protection of
hazardous material areas, reposition
security cameras, and trim foliage that
could provide hiding places or help
intruders scale fences.
The security director will likely need
to work with senior management to
make important policy decisions that
will shape security operations during
0917 Herman C.indd 50
EMPLOYEE
PROTECTION
DURING PROTESTS
Companies that are bracing for
protests in their vicinity should
discuss best practices with
employees to keep them safe.
• Carry a cell phone.
• Consider carpooling for
moral support and to reduce
the number of cars that must
enter the site.
• When leaving home for work,
prepare yourself mentally for
being stopped or jeered by
protesters.
• Try to approach the site
in such a way that you will
enter by making a right turn
and will not have to block
traffic. Watch for directions
from security officers.
• Keep vehicle doors locked
and windows up. Drive very
slowly as you approach pro-
testers. Be prepared to stop
quickly if one steps in front
of you.
• Do not shout taunts or
profanities at protesters, no
matter what they say or do
to you.
• If they block you, stay as
long as it is safe—longer
delays are more actionable
in court. If you have to leave,
do not go home but proceed
to a place where you can
safely phone the company’s
security team. Tell them what
happened and ask for trans-
portation assistance.
• If your vehicle is damaged
while entering the site, report
it to a security officer as soon
as you are safely inside.
• If your vehicle is damaged
while leaving, drive to a safe
place and report the incident
to security right away.
the incident. Issues to address include
whether the business will continue to
operate during the incident and whether
security efforts will be high or low visi-
bility. Management should also consider
how to protect the company from the
effects of the protest, including docu-
menting illegal behavior by protesters,
meeting legal obligations, protecting
the corporate reputation, speaking with
the media, and designating someone
to address unexpected issues that arise
during the protest or riot.
Put it in writing. Protests and riots
can create chaotic conditions, and a
variety of support documents are needed
to bolster decision making and protect
against legal ramifications. For example,
the security effort may require a list of
employees and contractors authorized
to enter the site during the incident;
detailed emergency and contingency
plans; written rules on access control
during the incident; a list of on-site haz-
ardous material and its location; detailed
external and internal maps of the facility
for fire and police units; and forms for
reporting violence and other crimes that
occur during the incident.
The plan should specify required
security staffing levels, fixed and roving
security officer posts, task assignments,
shift schedules, supervision responsi-
bilities, command center arrangements,
and evidence management procedures.
Education. The company needs a
way to notify employees if an incident is
underway or about to begin, as well as
whether they should report to work and
whom to contact for more information.
It is also essential to establish communi-
cation channels with local law enforce-
ment so the company will be informed
of impending risks. In addition, the
company may choose to contact distrib-
utors, customers, and vendors regarding
whether business will continue during a
protest or riot.
If the company’s usual security officers
will be responsible for security during
the incident, they will need training
on how to act during the disturbance.
Nonsecurity employees will also need
training on how to conduct themselves

and what to do if they show up to work
and encounter a demonstration.
Resources. A large-scale event will
require additional equipment, materi-
als, and services that address temporary
needs. These include visible marking of
property lines and “No Trespassing/No
Parking” signs, and additional lighting
and cameras. To prepare for disaster
response, procure identification badges
for special service providers during the
incident, emergency medical supplies,
fire and HAZMAT response equipment,
and food and sleeping arrangements if
security personnel will be required to
stay on-site for long periods.
The plan should require employees to
wear identifi
ide cation badges at all times
and clari
clarify any changes to work access
hours and
an locations. It should also spec-
ify how employees should report secu-
rity con
concerns and protester offenses.

protect

effeective. If people are moving through
a city in large numbers, burning cars
and buildings

low-key approach
a to security—such as
clearly m marked property lines and “No

Trespassi signs—will likely fail.
If a company’s
c intelligence effort sug-
gests that a riot may follow an upcom-
ing event, such as a controversial court
decision or a campus speech, or a recent
event such as a shooting by police,
the company should use high-profile
security measures to set an expectation,
namely that rioters should move on
and not attack the company’s facility.
The author’s firm was tasked with
protecting industrial facilities during
the 2015 Baltimore riots following the

to deter attacks—not combat them—by

away from reporters, watching the sur-
roundings carefully, and standing ready
to carry out the evacuation plan.
Disruptions at meetings. If pro-
testers come to a town hall or annual
shareholder meeting, the best approach
is to send a positive message that event
hosts expect the meeting to proceed in
an orderly fashion. One approach is to
mount temporary cameras on tripods or
walls around the room. Mounting them
makes them seem less aggressive than
having a person hold each camera and
point it at attendees. Large video moni-
tors should be placed around the room,
clearly showing participants that they
are on camera, and a single local law
enforcement officer should be visible
on-site. Experience shows that difficult
or disruptive people will not comply
the first or second time they are asked
to behave, but if the request is made
properly, somewhere around the third
or fourth time most people will comply.

Access Pipeline and the Atlantic Coast
Pipeline include using high locations
for photography, perhaps capturing
multiple angles from a roof. Employee
training on reporting threats and safe
practices for driving to and from the
site should be reinforced—especially
what to do if followed when leaving.
For legal protection, clearly mark prop-
erty lines and take video of the act of
posting “No Trespassing” signs in case
they are torn down.
Sometimes the best approach is
to remove protesters’ targets—this
approach can minimize risk for all con-
cerned. The author’s firm was asked to
protect a corporate headquarters where
a large-scale labor protest was expected.
Only 10 to 15 police officers would be
available to help deal with more than
1,000 protesters. To reduce opportuni-
ties for trouble, the company sent all
its headquarters staff home, without
warning, four hours before the protest
was expected to start, and removed
trash cans that could be thrown. To
reduce protesters’ hope of good photo
opportunities, the company’s main
headquarters sign was covered and
company trucks bearing the firm’s name
were moved out of sight. Photographers
were posted on the roof to document the
event. These protection measures kept
key assets safe.
Airport protests. Sometimes a
disruptive protest can be prevented or
dispersed by emphasizing its illegality.
In January 2017, protesters opposed
to federal immigration policy massed
at numerous U.S. airports, blocking
pedestrian and vehicle movement.
Most airports allowed the protests to
continue, but protesters who tried
to assemble at Denver International
Airport were turned away by police
because they did not have a permit
as required by airport regulations.
Restrictions on speech activity at air-
ports were upheld by the U.S. Supreme
Court, which states that an airport
can impose reasonable restrictions on
protest activity.
The goal of security in an era of pro-
tests is a safe outcome—the avoidance
of death, injury, destruction of property,
the hindering of legitimate business
activities, and damage to reputation.

mine that slot machine model in their

and send a reply back to the cheater.
This information would set certain
markers for their play, giving them a
better-than-average idea of when the
machines were going to hit.
In the United States, law enforcement
investigations led to the arrest of one
Russian national in California in a casino
in July 2014 who was engaging in this
sort of cheating. The FBI later indicted all
four individuals involved in the ring.
To give you an idea of the potential

limit their winnings
to less than $1,000 per
incident, but a four-person
team working multiple casinos
could earn upwards of a quarter of a
million dollars a week.
While some responsibility falls on the
slot machine manufacturing company,
the basic protection effort is still on
the casino surveillance and security per-
sonnel. It’s up to them to follow up with
surveillance observations and review
that slot machine play to see if there’s
anything that does not match up with
the daily slot exception reports, which
highlight unusually large losses.
Q. We’ve seen armed robberies
take place at gaming properties
over the years, most recently at a
casino in Manila where 36 people
died. What is being done to
combat those incidents?
A. Armed robberies in the industry
are a concern; they don’t happen that
frequently, but they are very troubling
when they do. In June of this year in
Gardena, California, two men followed
a victim who had just won a large sum
of money from a casino and rammed
into the back of his vehicle to create an
accident as he left the property. When
he pulled into a gas station to look at
the damage to his car, they robbed him
of his cash winnings and shot him four
times. Fortunately, the victim survived.
And then you have the shooting in
Manila. It was an active shooter situation
where 36 people died. The motive for that
individual? Also robbery. How do we pre-
vent things like that? It’s very difficult.
Most of the robberies occur at night, and
most of the casino hotels are so large
they have multiple entrances and exits.
For cage [money-handling area] rob-
beries, the training is, give the subjects
the money, don’t cause any problems,
and hit the holdup alarm when the
robber leaves your window. And you
want him to get away—you want him
to get out of the property, especially if
he is armed. We don’t want our security
personnel to try to stop them. We notify
law enforcement and let them handle it.
55
SEP 2017 | SECURITY MANAGEMENT
You need to look at the scheduling
of your security staff during hours of
darkness, and you may want to increase
the external patrols during those times.
If you have winners who have large
amounts of winnings, you may want to
encourage them to take a check rather
than cash. If they decide to take cash,
offer them an escort to their mode of
transportation. Most of the time it’s
their own personal vehicle, so offer
them a security escort to their vehicle.
If properties don’t already do it, they
may want to consider posting a security
officer by the cage. A lot of casinos have
security podiums for public relations
and assistance for guests that are
located by the cage and
serve as a deterrent. And
finally, you can use plain-
clothes officers to be on
the lookout for any unusual
activity.
Q. How has the active shooter
trend affected gaming security?
Are more properties deciding to
arm their guards?
A. One trend is that some gaming
regulators are now requiring a copy of
a licensee’s active shooter plan. The
Mississippi Gaming Commission, for
example, recently announced such a
policy. Some casino companies are also
considering arming some of their secu-
rity force to be able to quickly react to
an active shooter situation, if state law
allows it. In many jurisdictions where
gaming is a business, the state regula-
tions do not allow security to be armed.
The approach has some pros and
cons, and I would not disagree with
any of my peers on what their decisions
might be to protect their company.
Most active shooter situations are
over in 11 minutes if it’s not a hostage
situation, and in many cases first
responders from law enforcement can’t
get there that quickly. Sometimes they
do, but if you had individuals on site,
obviously their response would be
much quicker.
Now your armed response team

SEP 2017 | SECURITY MANAGEMENT

The University of Iowa is using student security officers to patrol its

campus to ensure safety and build a greater sense of community.

Daisy Torres wants to pursue a career
in law enforcement after she gradu-
ates from the University of Iowa in
Iowa City, Iowa. So, when she was
looking for student employment
opportunities, she discovered that the
university hired students to work in its
public safety dispatch center.
She applied for a position, but
wasn’t hired. That didn’t deter her,
however, and during her sophomore
year of college in 2016 she found
out about another opportunity for
undergraduates to work with the
University’s Department of Public
Safety: becoming a student security
officer.
Torres filled out an application,
interviewed, passed a background
check, and was offered a position as
an officer that fall, patrolling the cam-
pus and interacting with students.

 60
CAMPUS SAFETY | BY MEGAN GATES
“At first, the whole thing was intimi-
dating, but the officers have been very
helpful and supportive. They guide
you,” Torres says. “They encourage you
to ask questions to make sure you don’t
mess up.”
The experience has also offered her
a chance to see what a career in law
enforcement might look like and gain
a better understanding of how first
responders interact with students and
respond to incidents.
“As a regular person, you just see the
ambulance come or you see the officer
coming to take care of something—but
going through the training you realize
this is hard work,” she explains. “It
definitely humanizes the process, so
it’s really fun for me. It’s fun getting to
know the people, the officers you are
working with. You get to see the person
behind the badge.”
That’s the goal of the Student
Security Officer Program at the
University of Iowa, which was created
in the fall of 2016 when Assistant Vice
President and Director of Public Safety
Scott Beckner was hired to lead the
Public Safety Department.
Beckner has spent more than 30
years in law enforcement, including
25 in higher education law enforce-
ment with roles at Georgia College
and State University in Milledgeville,
Georgia; Shepherd University in
Shepherdstown, West Virginia; and
Michigan State University in East
Lansing, Michigan.
“I believe in a community policing
philosophy, meaning that our police
and security officers need to go where
the students are comfortable to build
positive relationships with them, even
if it’s not the environment in which the
officers themselves are most comfort-
able,” Beckner says. “This enables both
parties to establish meaningful com-
munication and receive better feedback
from both the law enforcement officers
and the students.”
The Program
The University of Iowa covers 1,880
acres that straddle the Iowa River.

An Education
CONNECTION
An educational organization in Long Island, New
York, joins a pilot program that shares its video
feeds with law enforcement in real time.
ith a staff of more than 2,000 people and an annual operat-
ing budget of $360 million, Eastern Suffolk Board of Cooperative
Educational Services (Eastern Suffolk BOCES) provides a variety of
support for K-12 schools in Long Island, New York.
“It could be things such as the schools’ IT support; we can host
their computers and their servers; we can help out with test grading
and professional development for their staff,” says Ryan Ruf, associate
superintendent for management services at Eastern Suffolk BOCES.
“And there are dozens and dozens of other services that we provide
to public schools.” There are 51 school districts, called component
districts, that the organization serves.
Located in 37 different buildings that Eastern Suffolk BOCES either
rents or owns, the organization puts a priority on security to protect
the wealth of sensitive student and school information that it houses.
“Since the safety and security of our students and staff are our
number one priority, we have the responsibility to deploy proven
integrated security technology systems to achieve this goal,” Ruf
explains, noting the organization has turned to several vendors to
make up a network of cameras, access control, and visitor manage-
ment systems to maintain security.
“There are hundreds of cameras installed throughout our locations
that are available on a platform where we can view them remotely,”
Ruf notes. Most cameras are from Axis, and the video management
system is by IP Video.
Access control is another priority for the organization, says Ruf,
who notes the growing number of active shooters in educational
environments. “Not that many years ago, most school buildings on
Long Island, in New York state, and throughout the country were

center, which is the main dispatch cen-
ter for campus 911 calls and the back-up
dispatch center for the county.
When Beckner came on board in
2016, the university hired students as
dispatchers in the dispatch center and
also as security staff at the University
open—parents could walk through
the front door, drop off a lunch for
their kids, and leave,” he explains.
But now that the situation has
changed, Ruf says Eastern Suffolk
BOCES is staying on top of the
security threat, with the ability to
lock down buildings remotely and
control which staff members have
access to which buildings.
“When you’re a big agency such
as ourselves, and you have daily
transactions with staff coming
and going….you need to have the
ability to control that,” he says. This
includes shutting off access for an
employee who no longer needs it or
going through the proper protocols
when someone resigns, he adds.
Eastern Suffolk BOCES also uses
a visitor management platform
from Raptor Technologies, which
allows front desk employees to
quickly process anyone wishing
to gain access to the building by
running their state-issued identifi-
cation. Eastern Suffolk BOCES also
built security vestibules in its lob-
bies, holding areas of sorts, where
visitors must wait while their IDs are
being processed.
“Raptor does a background
check, and cross-references the ID
with the sex offender list. It also
records certain key information
for us in case we needed to find
out who was in our building at any
particular time,” Ruf says. If every-
thing checks out, a temporary ID is
generated for the visitor.
A+ Technology & Security
Solutions, Inc., is the integrator that
installed and manages those secu-
rity platforms for the organization,
0917 ks GatesC.indd 61
of Iowa Art Museum. Based on his
experience at prior institutions, Beckner
wanted to expand the university’s use of
student employees for campus security
positions.
“Hiring student security officers is
another layer of our community policing
and monitors their health to per-
form any repairs that may be
needed. “That way, if an incident
does occur, things are working well
soon after,” Ruf says. “We don't
necessarily have the people power
to walk around and check every-
thing out every few hours and make
sure everything is operational.”
While the technologies it has
installed greatly improve its secu-
rity posture, Eastern Suffolk BOCES
took its ability to handle serious
threats like active shooter to the
next level when it signed up for a
pilot program with A+ Technology
and the local police department.
Since December 2016, it has given
Eastern Suffolk County Police head-
quarters access to its surveillance
cameras in an emergency.
To connect its cameras to police
headquarters, Eastern Suffolk
BOCES built a fiber optic cable
network that can be tapped into
should other school districts want
to leverage the same fiber in the
future.
“With this new Ethernet line, we
would be able to just route those
individual component districts back
to Suffolk County Police,” Ruf says,
“and we view that as the next step
in this program.”
When an emergency call comes
in—whether it’s for an active
shooter or another type of threat—
police can automatically pull up
the camera feeds from the location
where the incident is occurring.
From there, law enforcement can
direct first responders with real-
time information based on what the
camera shows.

approach,” Beckner says. “It gives our
officers another opportunity to connect
with students to get a pulse of what’s
happening on campus from the student
perspective.”

Ruf notes that many of Eastern
Suffolk BOCES’ buildings are large,
and possibly difficult to navigate
for someone who isn’t familiar
with the layout. “This way, police
already have an eye inside of our
building that's talking to the [first
responder], directing them to the
northeast corner of the building,
or the south of the campus,” he
explains.
Eastern Suffolk BOCES is part
of the larger pilot program in
Suffolk County facilitated by A+
Technology. The technology com-
pany has worked with other schools
and businesses to install “tens of
thousands of cameras” that connect
to police headquarters, according
to David Antar, president of A+
Technology.
“The system leverages something
called the AVFusion by IP Video
Corporation, which takes many
disparate sources of information
and brings them back to a common
operating picture at police head-
quarters,” says Antar.
With such a large stakeholder
community, Ruf says Eastern Suffolk
BOCES benefits tremendously from
having a one-stop-shop for law
enforcement to view its cameras.
“There are 51 component districts.
We can’t have 51 different systems
that police are looking at, it has to
be one uniform system,” Ruf notes,
“We think this A+ solution is the
one that makes the most sense.”

interview them for officer positions.
To recruit students, Hartsock and
others in the department used the uni-
versity’s Hire a Hawk program that lists
student employment opportunities and
attended the campus job fair. They also
went to Introduction to Criminology
classes—the first core class in the
Criminology, Law, and Justice major—to
contact students who might be inter-
ested in the program.
“The Intro to Criminology is a prereq-
uisite to the program that every student
coming in has to go through,” Hartsock
explains. “We go to those classes and
do a 10-minute pitch of what we have
to offer and tell them about the depart-
ment. If they wish to apply, they can.”
Within one month, the program had
30 students on staff as security offi-
cers, with a peak in the middle of the
academic year of 75 student officers. The
students completed training conducted
by full-time security staff on mandated
issues, including radio operation, the
Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus

and CPR.
The student officers were then trained
for each of their particular assign-
ments. These assignments included
dorm patrol, building checks, the art
museum, athletic events security, the
campus transportation service called
Nite Ride, and the Hawkeye Storage Lot.
“We don’t train everybody on every-
thing; we train on an as-needed basis in
accordance with whatever assignment
they are working,” Hartsock says.
This is because each assignment has
different requirements. For instance,

students assigned to Nite Ride—a trans-
portation service that provides rides for
students between 7:00 p.m. and 6:00
a.m.—act as dispatchers, taking calls
and managing the app that sends the
vehicle out to pick students up.
Dorm patrol requires that students
walk the dormitories, using a pipe
check-in system from Guard1Plus to
track their progress throughout the
campus. “A student could potentially
walk five or six miles a night, especially
on the weekends, looking for any safety
concerns, damage to property, and
things like that,” Hartsock says.
Student officers have similar respon-
sibilities when they are assigned to
the libraries or the Voxman Music
Building, which is a new building on
campus that houses valuable musical
equipment.
The art museum job is a“sought-af-
ter” assignment, Hartsock says,

because students sit at a desk, greet
people who come into the building,
and keep an eye on the building’s video
camera feeds, making it a relatively low-
key assignment.
The other assignment for
students is Hawkeye Storage Lot,
which is vulnerable to thefts from
parked cars because it is separated
from the main campus, Hartsock
says.
“We have students that also
sit out there and do patrols every
half hour in an electric car around
the lot for about 10 minutes,” he
explains.
Students on patrol wear yellow
polos and black pants and have utility
belts with pipes for the check-in system,
masks for CPR, and radios to reach the
dispatch office. If they notice suspicious
activity or an incident unfolding, stu-
dent officers are instructed to radio into

incidents of harm to a student secu-
rity officer while on duty, according to
Hartsock.
“We have the benefit of our student
security officers carrying radios—the
same exact radios that our police offi-
cers and our full-time security officers
carry—so they are literally a key click
away from our dispatch,” he adds.
“And a lot of times our police officers
are scanning our student security offi-
cer channels, and they can start head-
ing that way even before it is actually
dispatched by a dispatcher.”
Bullock says. “It’s a well-known thing
that sexual assaults are underreported.
We would like to do anything we can to
make the occurrences go down—ideally
eliminate them completely. But at least
knowing about them is a step in the
right direction.”
For less serious offenses, such as
smoking in a dorm room, Bullock says
students are much more likely to bring
that up to a student security officer on
dorm patrol than to a security officer.
Students are “not going to be as open
to saying that to a police officer as they
would to one of their peers,” he adds.
“General quality of life issues within
our campus have been easier to report
by having a peer to talk to.”

Campus Impact
When Torres was initially hired, her
friends and fellow students’ first
question was: Do you get to carry a
gun? Student security officers are not
armed, but they are taken seriously by
their peers and this support has helped
them build relationships on campus.
“I’ve been the night dispatcher for
Nite Ride and [my friends] don’t bother
calling the phones because they know
I’m working, so they’ll text me and say,
‘Is there a chance you could send a
Nite Ride my way?’” Torres says. “They
think it’s interesting because they get
to see me in the dorm sometimes and
say, ‘I know the security officer.’”
Building this sense of community
helps give credibility to the campus
police because the student security
officers get to know police officers as
real people, says Police Captain Mark
Bullock.
“Kids, when they talk about these
officers as people rather than as a
profession, it takes away some of those
barriers that may have previously been
there,” he explains.
Another benefit to having the stu-
dent security officers on patrol is that it
can make reporting a sensitive crime,
such as a sexual assault, easier for
students because they are talking to a
peer instead of a police officer.
“If it is a sensitive crime, and if you
have a familiar face or a peer who is
part of an organization like ours, we
would hope that would make report-
ing that crime just a little bit easier,”

equipped with a radio, "so it’s a direct
line of access to the police so informa-
tion is coming in in real time,” accord-
ing to Bullock. “There’s nothing lost in
translation.”
Future Plans
The Student Security Officer Program
has been viewed as a success so far,
and the university plans to expand it
during the fall of 2017 to hire approx-
imately 125 student officers for the
academic year.
“We’re actually getting ready to do
a very large hiring surge of possibly 40
to 50 more students just to cover one
assignment that’s in the works right
now,” says Hartsock, who declined to
provide more detail about what the
assignment was.
The department itself is also making
a push to have student security officers,
police officers, and security staff be
increasingly more involved with campus
life in their off hours. One initiative is
paying for staff to participate in intra-
mural sports on campus.
“So you’re interacting with the univer-
sity community, humanizing us in the
sense that students get to know us per-
sonally, see a familiar face out of uni-
form as well as in uniform,” Hartsock
explains. “Being more approachable
and being looked at in a way that we’re
really genuinely here to help.”
All of this goes back to Beckner’s
focus of creating a community policing
approach to campus security at the
university.
“If University of Iowa officers can
begin to know students on a personal
level—when it’s not in the context of
punitive action—I believe we’ll be able
to solve more problems proactively,”
he says. “One of my early goals was
to begin to break down the barriers
between students and campus police,
and I think this program is helping us
do that.”

CRISIS LEADERSHIP BEGINS BEFORE EMERGENCIES HAPPEN.

MANAGERS CAN PREPARE BY LEARNING THE BUSINESS, MAKING
ALLIANCES WITH KEY PLAYERS, ASSESSING RISK, AND
IDENTIFYING VULNERABILITIES.

N JULY 12, 2006, fighting between the Israeli

O army and the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah

suddenly erupted and started to spread. Hezbollah
fired rockets and anti-tank missiles; Israel responded
with airstrikes and artillery fire, and later launched a ground
invasion of southern Lebanon. The 2006 Lebanon War raged
on for 34 days before the United Nations brokered a ceasefire.
I received word of the fighting shortly before the news
reports hit. I was GE’s divisional global security director at
the time, based at the corporate headquarters building of
General Electric (GE) Healthcare in Waukesha, Wisconsin. I
was responsible for the security and wellbeing of employees
at more than 600 properties around the world, including
three sites in Israel and one in Lebanon. Calls were coming in
from both sides of the battle; many employees were at risk of
losing their lives.
However, as the war entered its tenth day, we had relo-
cated more than 1,000 employees and family members out of
harm’s way, with the help of our corporate executive team
and several strategic partners. This wasn’t an easy
task. We were able to continue basic opera-
tions with minimal losses in Israel, but all
activity in Lebanon came to an abrupt

stop. What further complicated matters
was the U.S. government’s refusal, or
inability, to assist with any form of safe
passage from Lebanon. Still, we were
able to complete relocations
by using several dangerously
remote and unpopulated routes
to reach Jordan through Syria.
An event of this magnitude—
an actual war—is difficult to
navigate, and can be wholly
draining. While the war crisis
proceeded, the company con-
tinued to operate, so long hours
were a requirement. For three
days after that first call, I didn’t
get many chances to sleep.
Managing a serious crisis as a group
leader can be stressful, both physically
and emotionally. It is crucial to recog-
nize that your effectiveness in success-
fully leading others will diminish if you
openly demonstrate indecisiveness,

this groundwork can start from day one

and by consistently practicing certain

management best practices, managers
can greatly improve their chances of
being an effective crisis leader. This arti-
cle explores these practices and prepa-
ration, including building technical
expertise, assessing situations, develop-
ing relationships with key stakeholders,
and training for emergencies.
BUILD EXPERTISE
Knowing the business you support is
the most critical factor to your suc-
cess as a crisis management leader.
Thus, if you’re new to an organization,
you should dedicate as much time as
possible in your first three months to
learning all you can about every facet
of the business—from sales to produc-
tion to market share—and meeting the
people who are the driving forces in
those areas.
In my career, I have had the oppor-
tunity to manage security programs
for several companies in completely
different vertical markets. Each market
change required extended study time.
There’s a huge variance in the opera-
tional methodologies of security pro-
grams at a hospital and a nuclear power
plant, for example. Although the core
principles of security can be applied
to any industry, each line of business
retains its own unique characteristics
and regulatory framework.
Besides operational knowledge, you
must also develop relationships with
most of the key process and resource
owners who support the business’s
primary missions. Once those relation-
ships are established, you should then
strive to understand the secondary and

In addition, you should also learn

you a fuller understanding of the
potential vulnerabilities and the gaps
that may exist in business operations,
the contingency plans themselves, and

component, a labor
disruption, or a stoppage in distribution

to have little to do with traditional

learn about the inner workings of your
company.

an Easter egg hunt gone wild. Armed
with this knowledge and with very little

to secure dozens of the remaining tapes,
which kept our production teams going

Sometimes, it takes great effort to
avoid being constrained into a depart-

it comes to internal business workings.
But the effort is worth it. Get out there

questions and build relationships and
alliances. Learn the business so you can
contribute to its survival.

ASSESS SITUATIONS
Another important component of
crisis leadership preparation is staying
current on domestic and international
events, especially if your company is
a global one. Third-party providers of
intelligence and communications ser-
vices can be useful here. Many of these
providers even offer crisis forecasting by
region and country to keep your team
abreast of problem areas.
This global understanding, combined
with business knowledge, will allow
you to see the big picture and anticipate
which operations might be interrupted
if a crisis starts to unfold.

knowledge improves your chances of

they contain. Thus, effective coordi-
nation and communication is critical
during these initial stages.
DEVELOP RELATIONSHIPS
With sufficient business knowledge and
a global understanding, you will be in a
position to advise the C-suite on events
once a crisis starts to unfold and help
your firm be active rather than reactive.
However, this cannot happen if orga-
nizational leaders reject an inclusionary
approach when it comes to crisis lead-
ership. For example, early in my career,
the company I worked for decided to
move forward on a major acquisition—
the purchase of a competitor’s reman-
ufacturing division. In general, not all
security departments are included in
every C-suite function; some do not get
much visibility into major corporate
decisions. This held true in our par-
ticular case because the security team
was not part of the company’s diligence
support team. Furthermore, the security
team was not included in the company’s
crisis response team, which consisted
mostly of legal and financial leadership,
supported by communications and
customer relations staff.
As a result, the security team was
unable to flag any discrepancies that
might have shown up in the due dili-
gence process. The division that was
purchased turned out to be a fraudulent
shell company. When news of the bad
purchase reached the press a few days
later, our firm suffered a severe financial
loss and some reputational damage to
its brand.
The incident illustrates the importance
of maintaining a wide representation
0917 ks-Hilbert C.indd 76
of all business functions on a crisis
management team. By emphasizing
teamwork and relationship building, a
manager can help develop and main-
tain collaborative channels that will be
invaluable during a crisis. Moreover, a
well-structured and collaborative crisis
management team can incorporate the
use of predictive tools, such as event
forecasting and analysis, that maximize
the chances of avoiding a crisis in the
first place.
Even so, if a crisis does occur, suc-
cessful collaboration between many
stakeholders is usually a prerequisite for
formulating an acceptable and viable
solution. An effective crisis manage-
ment leader knows where to go to seek
out advice from others when consid-
ering options to present to company
leaders. While it is often necessary to
quickly provide solution options during
a crisis, it is also advisable for managers
to carefully consider all security-based
spending decisions, which can some-
times be driven more by fear than by
reason after a major event
Once options have been considered
and a response plan is approved, a
manager needs strong interactive lead-
ership skills to ensure that others buy
in and follow the course laid out. As the
example of the shell company purchase
shows, a collaborative effort can be
quickly derailed by preventing a single
department, which might hold a critical
part of the solution, from participating.
TRAIN
Good leaders make intelligent deci-
sions; great leaders do so consistently.
The combination of business operations
knowledge and current
event understanding
will help a security
leader make better
decisions.
But in the final
analysis, leadership is
not about making the
best decision possible in
every instance, or about
always being the smart-
est person in the room.
It’s ultimately about
your ability to earn the trust of others
to the point where they will willingly
follow you. Here, effective communica-
tion is vital.
In July 2005, four suicide bombers
armed with rucksacks full of explo-
sives detonated bombs on the London
Underground that killed 52 people and
injured hundreds more. Within four
hours of the bombings, our security
team at GE Healthcare was able to
quickly identify—from a pool of roughly
45,000 employees —that 483 were
confirmed or expected to be traveling
in or about London that day for work.
Using our mass communication system,
we located all but nine employees on
business travel that were in London or
had passed through London within an
eight-hour window of the bombings.
By other means, we quickly con-
firmed that the remaining nine travelers
were safe. Additionally, some of our
employees on personal leave and vaca-
tion were traveling in London that day.
Because those employees had included
their private cell phone numbers in
the company’s emergency notification
system, we were able to receive confir-
mations that they, too, were safe.
On the other hand, sometimes crisis
pressure can lead to costly communi-
cation errors. Take for example, one of
the most high-profile crisis situations
in recent memory, the 9/11 terrorist
attacks. After the planes hit the towers,
one senior security manager of a major
corporation in New York was overheard
saying, “We’re being attacked! I don’t
think anyone’s gonna make it out of
Manhattan!” The comment started

a panic in the entire office building,
which took hours to calm.
The example shows that even
accomplished managers can succumb
to pressure. However, specialized crisis
management leadership training can
be invaluable in reducing the chances
of this happening. Communication
is often an important component of
this type of training; many programs
provide guidance on how bad news can

GIVING BACK
ASIS International is dedicated
to giving back to the communi-
ties that host its annual seminar.
This is reflected in the Security
Cares program taking place on
Wednesday, September 27, and
Thursday, September 28, at ASIS
2017.
Security Cares is a community
safety and security initiative
designed to educate leaders of
small and medium-sized busi-
nesses, as well as cultural and
community institutions—such
as churches and schools—
about the fundamentals of
security and preparedness.
Through Security Cares, ASIS
International will provide easily
implementable prevention and
preparedness strategies and
best practices, as well as access
to a global pool of security
thought leaders and solutions
providers. This year's free
program will focus on active
shooter, cybersecurity, and safe
mail handling best practices.

ASIS International pursues its mission
to advance security management best
practices and give back to the community
hosting the Annual Seminar and Exhibits.
“Without a doubt, school safety
contributes to academic success, and
promotes innovation, inquiry, and risk
taking in high-poverty, high-performing
schools,” wrote Underwood. “Students

discussions on career development. Af-
terwards, attendees will have a chance
to further build on those discussions
when they take part in the “Career De-
velopment in Security” session, which
will offer young security professionals
the tools and best practices they need to
grow their security careers.
The Career Center wraps up with
a bang on Thursday with two of its
most impactful sessions. The first,
“Mentoring: Guiding Tomorrow’s
Leaders” will provide the next
generation of security industry leaders
with another avenue to hone their skills
to achieve their career goals, whether
it’s to embark on a new challenge or
advance within their organization.
Panelists will examine the importance
of mentoring, as well as what to look for
in a mentor, key factors in building an
effective relationship, and the qualities
of a successful mentee.
Attendees will continue examining
the future of security with a conver-
gence panel that will explore the
ever-changing relationship between
information technology and physical
security. As threats around the globe
become increasingly sophisticated, it is
vital that security professionals in every
focus area can collaborate and identify
comprehensive solutions for the risks
facing citizens, industry, and govern-
ments around the world.
Career Coaching and résumé reviews
will take place during exhibit hours.

ASIS NEWS
a widespread challenge that every-
one in the security business has
experienced at one time or another—the
effective control and accountability of
key and access systems.
Neely employs first-person narrative
to recount his professional history and
how he invented
key and access
control systems,
relying too much
on personal de-
scription for a
professional publi-
cation.
Nonetheless, the
author does a su-
perb job of bring-
ing to life the adage that necessity is the
mother of invention. After experiencing
a series of expensive lost key episodes,
he created a system to more effectively
manage keys. Valuable first-hand sto-
ries help round out the problem-im-
pact-solution triad.
Neely chronicles the financial and
legal impacts that inadequate controls
can bring. For example, a single set of
lost master keys cost a university nearly
$350,000. The impact doesn’t end with
the bottom line, but it can also adversely
affect legal documents and court cases,
as well as an organization’s reputation.
The Key to Keys has some instructive
value to students of security manage-
ment, but it goes too far in promoting the
author’s products. Further, some of the
photos, tables, and figures lack defining
labels or captions, are presented out of
focus, or do not adequately line up.
The most valuable lesson from this
book is that motivation and initiative
can inspire an earnest practitioner to
not only safeguard people and prop-
erty, but also to take that next step and
invent new and effective ways to help
improve security practices.

CERTIFICATION
PROFILE
FELIX GIANNINI, CPP
Aside from six years
in the U.S. Navy and
a short stint working
for a marine elec-
tronics company,
“I’ve been self-em-
ployed my whole
life,” says Felix
Giannini, CPP, presi-
dent of Lexco Security Systems in Fairfield,
Connecticut. Intrigued by electronics as a
teenager, he repaired audiovisual equip-
ment and maintained a state-of-the-art
video broadcast system while attending
high school in Mamaroneck, New York. The
two men who managed those operations
had an alarm business on the side. “So in
the 1970s I began installing security sys-
tems,” Giannini recalls. “I was trained by
workmanship fanatics,” he says, “and that
has influenced my whole career.”
Instilling professional workmanship
practices and standards within the
security installer community is extremely
important to Giannini. He believes that
low standards—a lack of professional
training among company owners, reduced
educational requirements for licensed
low-voltage electrical contractors, and
scant funds for enforcement—lead to
increased false alarms and a profession
relegated to insignificance.
Giannini’s company focuses on large
commercial, industrial, and institutional
systems in the United States and overseas.
He works with clients not only as a sys-
tems integrator but also as a consulting
engineer and project manager. In those
roles, he is aware of the potential for con-
flicts of interest. “If I design and manage
a project, I have no business also install-
ing,” he says. “The systems are designed
and implemented in the best interests
of the company, not the local vendors.”
Giannini has been a member of ASIS
for 33 years. He was inspired to become a
Certified Protection Professional® (CPP)
in the 1980s while working as a consulting
engineer for the Pitney Bowes Corporation
in Stamford, Connecticut. During that time,
he also designed a video conference system
between the Riker’s Island Male House of
Detention and the Bronx Criminal Court so
hearings could be conducted over a micro-
wave link. And he designed the first cam-
era system for the Statue of Liberty.
Giannini earned a bachelor of science
degree in fire protection systems engi-
neering and is working on a master’s in
emergency management. He applies edu-
cational concepts to assessing a company’s
risks and hazards and designing mitigation
strategies. “It’s not about the systems we
install,” he says. “It’s about the people, the
programs, and the training.”
As a CPP, Giannini earns respect from
client companies. “It says that I have an
awareness level and that I speak their lan-
guage,” he says. “It’s not just about selling
cameras and monitors…it’s a much bigger
picture and a lot more responsibility.”
Giannini has been vice chair of the
Southern Connecticut Chapter for five
years. He is proud of his chapter affiliation
and has been instrumental in attracting
speakers on such topics as social media
and personal branding. He also helped cre-
ate the first ASIS “Sister Chapter” relation-
ship between his chapter and ASIS Italy.
Being a member of ASIS has been
an “incredible benefit,” says Giannini,
but not because he uses it as a vehicle
to get work.” I don’t want to ever taint
my membership,” he says. “It’s been an
inspiration to be a professional, especially
as a systems integrator.”

JUDICIAL
DECISIONS
COERCION. In the first decision of its
kind, the U.S. National Labor Relations
Board (NLRB) has ruled that an employer
committed an unfair labor practice when
a manager texted an employee asking
whether the employee’s loyalties lay
with the company or the labor union.
RHCG Safety Corp. (Redhook) is a
general construction contractor in
New York City. During an organizing
campaign during the summer of 2015,
a construction union attempted to
convince employees to vote in favor
of union representation. During the
campaign, Redhook employee Claudio
Anderson needed to take time off to
travel to Panama to care for his mother.
Anderson’s supervisor, David
Scherrer, allowed Anderson to take
the time off. Before Anderson left for
Panama, however, he visited the union’s
offices and signed an authorization
card indicating that he supported
union representation. His mother’s
health also improved at the same time,
so Anderson decided not to take a
leave of absence from work and texted
Scherrer about returning to work.
Scherrer responded, according

Robert Doggart,
65, of Signal
Mountain, Ten-

sentenced to 235
months in prison for soliciting another
person to burn down a mosque in New
York—a violation of U.S. civil rights laws.
In February 2015, a confidential source
told the FBI that Doggart was recruiting
people online to carry out an armed at-
tack on Islamberg, a community in New
York that is home to a large number of
Muslims. “Doggart specifically targeted
the mosque because it was a religious
building, and he discussed burning it
down or blowing it up with a Molotov
cocktail or other explosive device,” ac-
cording to the U.S. Department of Justice.

DISCRIMINATION
Rosebud
Restaurants,
Inc., will pay $1.9
million and other
relief to settle a class race discrimination
lawsuit brought by the U.S. Equal
Employment Opportunity Commission
(EEOC). According to the EEOC, 13 of
Rosebud’s restaurants “refused to hire
African-Americans because of their
race” and Rosebud’s owner “used racial
slurs to refer to blacks” in violation of
Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
The settlement requires Rosebud to
pay $1.9 million to African-American
applicants Rosebud did not hire, along
with requiring it to create hiring goals for
qualified black applicants and prohibiting
it from engaging in race discrimination
in the future. (EEOC v. Rosebud, U.S.

leging that the company violated the
National Labor Relations Act (NLRA)
through Scherrer’s text messages.
The NLRB ruled in the union’s fa-
vor, finding that the texts violated the
NLRA because they were sent in re-
sponse to an employee’s inquiry about
whether he should return to work.
“By juxtaposing working with
Redhook with working in the union,
Scherrer’s text strongly suggested
that the two were incompatible,”
the NLRB said in its ruling.
Redhook had also argued that text
messages could not be considered
“unlawful interrogation.” The board,
however, did not find this argument
persuasive because previous deci-
sions found that interrogations do
not have to be in-person to violate the
NLRA—that violations can stem from
coercive writings or phone calls.
Applying these same principles,
the NLRB said there was “no rea-
son why [there should be] a safe
harbor for coercive employer in-
terrogations via text messages.”
The board ordered Redhook to re-
instate Anderson to his former job or
a substantially equivalent position;
compensate him for any loss of earn-

MARIJUANA. An employer acted
illegally when it failed to hire a
medical marijuana user because
she disclosed she could not pass a
preemployment drug test, a Rhode
Island state court has ruled.
The ruling stems from a case
brought by Christine Callaghan, who
in June 2014 was a master’s student
studying textiles at the University of
Rhode Island. To meet a graduation
requirement, she applied for an in-
ternship with Darlington Fabrics—a
division of the Moore Company.
Callaghan met with Darlington
Human Resources Coordinator Karen
McGrath and signed a Fitness for Duty
Statement, which said she would
have to take a drug test before being
hired as an intern. During this meet-
ing, Callaghan also told McGrath that
she had a medical marijuana card in
compliance with Rhode Island’s Haw-
kins-Slater Medical Marijuana Act.
A few days after the meeting, McGrath
and a colleague called Callaghan and
asked if she was currently using medi-
cal marijuana. Callaghan said she was,
according to court documents, so she
would test positive on her preemploy-
ment drug screening. She also said that
she was allergic to many other painkill-
ers, and that she would not bring mari-
juana into the workplace or use it there.
McGrath then told Callaghan that

a positive test would “prevent the
company from hiring her,” the
lawsuit said. McGrath and her col-
league then ended the call.
They called Callaghan later that af-
ternoon and told her that Darlington
could not hire her because, according
to court documents, “Ms. Callaghan put
the corporation on notice that she was
currently using marijuana, would not
stop using marijuana while employed
by the company, and could not pass the
required preemployment drug test, and
thus could not comply with the corpo-
ration’s drug-free workplace policy.”
Callaghan then filed a lawsuit,
charging that Darling’s decision not
to hire her was a violation of the
Hawkins-Slater Act, a violation of
the Rhode Island Civil Rights Act,
and employment discrimination.
The suit reached the Rhode Island
Superior Court, which ruled in Cal-
laghan’s favor because of the language
in the Hawkins-Slater Act that says

or otherwise penalize a person solely
for his or her status as a cardholder.”
Callaghan disclosed to Darling that
she was a medical marijuana card
holder and user; Darling’s refusal to
hire her after she made the disclosure
violated state law, the court said.
Judge Richard Licht also wrote in
his opinion that Darling’s position
would place medical marijuana users
in a worse position than recreational
users who might also apply for jobs
with the company. For instance, a
recreational marijuana user could
stop using for long enough to pass
the preemployment drug test and
not be subject to future tests.
“The medical user would not be able
to cease for long enough to pass the
drug test, even though his or her use
is necessary to treat or alleviate pain,
nausea, and other symptoms associated
with certain debilitating medical con-
ditions,” Licht explained. (Callaghan

REGULATIONS
COMMUNICATIONS. U.K. communi-
cations regulator Ofcom fined mobile
network operator Three £1.8 million
(approximately U.S. $2.4 million) for
weaknesses in its emergency call net-
work that is required to ensure uninter-
rupted access to emergency services.
Three notified Ofcom in October
2016 of a temporary loss of service
in Kent, Hampshire, and parts of
London. Ofcom investigated the is-
sue, and found that emergency calls
from customers in these areas had
to pass through a single data cen-
ter to reach emergency services.

LIGHTS
0917_Legal_Report_C.indd 136
“This meant that Three’s emer-
gency call service was vulnerable to
a single point of failure,” Ofcom said
in a press release. “Three’s network
should have been able to automatically
divert emergency calls via back-up
routes in the event of a local outage.
But these back-up routes would also
have failed because they were all
directed through this one point.”
Ofcom issued the penalty to re-
flect the “seriousness of the breach,
given the potential impact on pub-
lic health and safety,” it said.
LEGISLATION
European Union
ENCRYPTION. The European Par-
liament Committee on Civil Liberties,
Justice, and Home Affairs has endorsed
a new amendment to require end-to-end
encryption on all communications.
The committee released a draft pro-
posal (amendment 16) that recommends
introducing regulations to enforce
end-to-end encryption on all communi-
cations to protect European Union (EU)
citizens’ fundamental privacy rights.
“Furthermore, when encryption of
electronic communications data is
used, decryption, reverse engineering,
or monitoring of such communications
shall be prohibited,” the proposal said.
“Member states shall not impose any
obligations on electronic communica-
tions service providers that would result
in the weakening of the security and en-
cryption of their networks and services.”
The proposal also calls for a ban
on “backdoors” into encrypted
messaging apps because electronic
communications data should be
treated as confidential data.
ISSUE: Marijuana
CASE: Barbuto v. Advantage Sales and
Marketing
VENUE: Massachusetts Supreme Court
STATUS: Ruled in favor of Barbuto
SIGNIFICANCE: Allows Barbuto’s case
against her former employer to move

for firing her for using medical marijuana.
If adopted, the proposal would be
at odds with the U.K., U.S., Australia,
and even some European governments’
stances that technology firms should
create backdoors to help fight terrorism.
United States
UTILITIES. The U.S. House of Rep-
resentatives is considering legisla-
tion that aims to reduce the threat
of wildfires to electric transmis-
sion and distribution facilities.
The resolution (H.R. 1873) would
amend the Federal Land Policy and
Management Act of 1976 to ensure that
all existing and future rights-of-way
established by grant, special use au-
thorization, and easement for electrical
transmission and distribution facilities
include provisions for utility vegeta-
tion management, inspection, and
operation and maintenance activities.
The resolution would require trans-
mission and distribution facility owners
and operators to create a plan for vege-
tation management that “provides for
the long-term, cost-effective, efficient
and timely management of facilities and
vegetation within the width of the right-
of-way and adjacent federal lands to
enhance electricity reliability, promote
public safety, and avoid fire hazards.”
The resolution was introduced by U.S.
Rep. Doug LaMalfa (R-CA) and, as of
press time, had 20 bipartisan cosponsors.
“Under this legislation, rural electric
co-ops, utilities, and municipal power
providers will be able to proactively
remove hazardous trees before they be-
come problems, not after they’ve caused
a fire,” LaMalfa said in a statement.

particularly useful for companies involved solution for large and multilocation
in mergers and acquisitions. Each card is encoded with multiple card numbers operations. It includes FLIR Latitude
and Wiegand data formats to duplicate the existing card programming. Universal software, as well as FLIR Horizon and

casinos, pan-tilt-zoom cameras are
constantly panning and switching to
track hand movements, cash trans-
actions, and play. Synergy 3 includes
self-learning algorithms, so once the camera learns about priority areas in its field
of view autofocus works more effectively. Synergy 3 can set, save, and roll out us-
er-defined camera settings to other cameras that are similarly situated. The EX300
Advanced Control Suite is a touchscreen tablet with optional jog shuttle, keypad,

PREDICTIVE ANALYTICS NETWORK VIDEO RECORDERS

ONEEVENT TECHNOLOGIES of Mount Horeb, Wisconsin,
created the OnePrevent system that can predict disasters before
they occur and alert users to prevent misfortune. A powerful
cloud-based analytical engine constantly monitors factors such
as temperature, air quality, motion, and moisture to learn what is
normal in a space. If the system receives an abnormal reading, it
can determine potential risks and alert property managers of the
possibility of a disaster, such as a fire or flood, before the event
occurs. In testing, the system
anticipated fires up to 20 min-
utes before smoke alarms went
off. The flexible system can be
installed where buildings are
at risk for events such as fire,
water damage, gas leaks, and
unauthorized access. 912
LILIN AMERICAS of Arcadia, California, is including
a free license for peer-to-peer (P2P) networking soft-
ware with the purchase of its NVR Series network video
recorders, thus enabling remote viewing on smart-
phones and tablets. This nullifies the need to open a
port and log into a router for mobile viewing, making
connections more secure. Mobile devices are connected
directly to the NVR via a QR code. Once the user creates
and stores a configuration file in a P2P account, it can
be imported into a mobile device for the simplified
setup of multiple devices. 913

THE LIST

UNIFORM
1. PERCEPTION. Color theory isn’t an exact science,
but we do know a few things about how colors
change the way people are perceived. Color changes
how people see others and how people see them-

COLOR
selves. In American culture, the darker the color, the
more authoritative a person appears. It is unsurpris-
ing then that the colors most often associated with
security and law enforcement uniforms are blue,

THEORY
gray, and black.

2. EMOTION. Psychological tests have found that in-

SERVES ON THE ASIS SECURITY SERVICES COUNCIL.
dividuals associate colors with specific moods. For
example, people generally associate red with excite-
ment and stimulation, which explains why red is
often used for flashing emergency vehicle lights but
not for uniforms. According to a study done at the
University of Georgia, the color blue subconsciously
evokes feelings of comfort and security in most peo-
ple, making it a good choice for people in a position
of authority. Tests also have found that individuals
associate the color black with power and strength.
But black can also elicit anger, hostility, dominance,
and aggression. A dark security uniform may sub-
consciously encourage citizens to see officers as ag-
gressive or corrupt. The color gray is an unemotional
color. It is detached, neutral, impartial, and indeci-
sive. From a color psychology perspective, gray is the
color of compromise—being neither black nor white.
Gray conforms. For a security officer uniform, gray is
conventional, dependable, and practical.

3. AUTHORITY. When combined with a uniform, color

can establish a sense of authority. In 1829, the London
Metropolitan Police developed the first standard police
apparel. These first police officers were issued a dark
blue, paramilitary-style uniform. The color blue was
chosen to distinguish the police from the British mil-
itary officers who wore red and white uniforms at the
time. The first official police force in the United States
was established in the city of New York in 1845. Based
on the London police, the New York City Police De-
partment adopted the dark blue uniform in 1853. Cities
such as Boston, Buffalo, Cincinnati, Cleveland, De-
troit, and Philadelphia quickly followed by establish-
ing police departments based on the London model,
including the adoption of the dark blue, paramili-
tary-style uniform. Most police uniforms in the United
States continue to have a paramilitary appearance and
are generally a dark color. However, dark colors are
preferred not only for the emotions they convey, but
because they keep the officer from being easily spotted
by lawbreakers, especially at night.
