| Foreseeability Based Planning |
Foreseeability can be your liability
Since certain acts have occurred in or near your company, your company should reasonably be
expected to foresee potential security problems and provide adequate security measures to
protect against them. Moreover, foreseeablity could be established by all facts and
circumstances, not just prior violent acts. Therefore, prior thefts may be sufficient to establish
foreseeablity since these offenses could lead to violence.
Upon assuming a security assignment, the security officer needs to know all possible threat
scenarios. This requires an open line of communication. Identify and evaluate each threat;
determine the criticality and dollar cost of the risk It is better to know and be prepared for any
possible scenario specific to your business.
Your business is unique
Each business is unique and faces unique threats.
In order to plan appropriately we need to know any prior incidents,
response and consequences of loss if any.
Our measure of effectiveness
The security officers' measure of effectiveness is demonstrated by his/her ability to respond
quickly and professionally. In order to accomplish this, takes planning, preparation and
practice. We need to first, be able to detect the occurrence of a situation and have an
appropriate response established from policy and procedures and then be able to understand
and follow policies to reduce the vulnerability of company property.
Continual open line of communication
Property owners and management should fully disclose all past
incidents and present threats that exists. A continual open line of
communication should be maintained to inform the off-site and
on-site security officers of your threats and vulnerabilities.
Each individual firm has problems and threats that are unique.
A through analysis is comprehensive and accurate and leads to effective countermeasures.

Threat Assessments
Deciding what security measures you need are typically
dependent upon a realistic “Threat Assessment". First,
identify threats you are exposed to then evaluate how serious
each can be according to each consequence. This can be
determined according to the concept known as foreseeablity.
