Design and Evaluation of Physical Security Systems, 2e, includes
updated references to security expectations and changes since 9/11.
The threat chapter includes references to new threat capabilities
in Weapons of Mass Destruction, and a new figure on hate crime
groups in the US. All the technology chapters have been reviewed
and updated to include technology in use since 2001, when the first
edition was published. Garcia has also added a new chapter that
shows how the methodology described in the book is applied in
transportation systems. College faculty who have adopted this text
have suggested improvements and these have been incorporated as
well. This second edition also includes some references to the
author's recent book on Vulnerability Assessment, to link the two
volumes at a high level.
* New chapter on transportation systems
* Extensively updated chapter on threat definition
* Major changes to response chapter
Vulnerability Assessment of Physical Protection Systems will
describe the entire vulnerability assessment (VA) process, from the
start of planning through final analysis and out brief to senior
management. The text will draw heavily on the principles introduced
in the author's best-selling Design and Evaluation of Physical
Protection Systems and allow readers to apply those principles and
conduct a VA that is aligned with system objectives and achievable
with existing budget and personnel resources. The book will address
the full spectrum of a VA, including negotiating tasks with the
customer, project management and planning of the VA, team
membership, step-by-step details for performing the VA, data
collection and analysis, important notes on how to use the VA to
suggest design improvements and generate multiple design options.
The text will end with a discussion of how to out brief the results
to senior management in order to gain their support and demonstrate
the return on investment of their security dollar. Several new
tools will be introduced to help readers organize and use the
information at their sites and allow them to mix the physical
protection system with other risk management measures to reduce
risk to an acceptable level at an affordable cost and with the
least operational impact.
- Guides the reader through the topic of physical security doing so
with a unique, detailed and scientific approach
- Takes the reader from beginning to end and step-by-step through a
Vulnerability Assessment
- Over 150 figures and tables to illustrate key concepts
