Protecting Critical Assets:
For The Nation And The Organisation
The protection of critical assets of the nation, or an organisation, or a company is crucial for the success and survival of the entity. These critical assets are the people, the information, and the property of the entity and can not be replaced. As international crime continues to increase and the impact of the crime is paid for by the community in financial and social terms, the need for better processes and techniques of protecting assets increases.
However, as the tools and devices available to the criminal element become more sophisticated, then law enforcement agencies and security professionals need to have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of the physical security principles and practices for the protection of critical assets.
This workshop will provide the participants with the principles underlying the protection of assets of an organisation. The emphasis of the workshop will be on best practice through reducing the risk of asset loss from high threat situations.
How you will benefit from this workshop:
The workshop will discuss the ideas and concepts for the physical protection of assets. The principles will include physical security protection through applications of barriers, and the application of environmental design as a crime reducing strategy. Appropriate intrusion detection systems will be presented together with design strategies for effective applications of these systems. In particular, the application of infrared technologies will be presented. Effective testing strategies will be considered. The workshop is particularly useful for: |
- Understanding and applying the principles of security practices and technologies
in the area of physical security.
- Selecting and recommending appropriate security strategies for the protection of assets.
- Choosing types of physical security systems.
- Evaluating the effectiveness of security barriers.
- Understanding the principles of intrusion detection systems.
- Understanding the principles of operation of infrared detection.
- Being aware of the need for testing physical security systems.
- Designing physical security systems for the protection of assets.
Who Should Attend:
- Senior members of both public and government organizations that are involved in security related areas.
- Those with a widerinterest in the broader issues of new security related areas such as biometric verification, security technology, and physical security
Internationally Renowned Master Trainer
 Dr. Clifton Smith Honorary Professor, Security Science
Professor Clifton Smith initiated the commitment of Security Science at Edith Cowan University, Perth, Western Australia in 1992. Associate Professor Clifton Smith proposed the establishment of a research centre in security at ECU and he was appointed Director of the Australian Institute of Security and Applied Technology (AISAT). Professor Smith has developed research profiles for AISAT in security imaging, biometric imaging, ballistics identification, infrared sensing, and strategic security, and security short courses in retail security, computer security, bank security, physical security, and security management.
In 2004, Professor Smith established the Security Systems Research and Test Laboratory at Edith Cowan University for the design and testing of security technology. The security systems evaluated and tested are intelligent CCTV and access control including biometric systems, for government and industry organizations. Professor Smith has been involved in the development of future forensic ballistics imaging systems for the identification of firearms, which has been in progress for eight years. The development of security industry standards continues to be a priority of the Laboratory. Professor Smith established the International Centre for Security and Risk Sciences at Edith Cowan University to provide a platform for the research in security related areas and the development of security risk studies. Professor Smith's research expertise includes biometric imaging, forensic ballistics imaging and analysis, security education and training, the human-technology interface, and intrusion detection systems.
Professor Smith has presented about 120 conference papers on topics including security risk, security technology, biometrics access control, security management, and forensic ballistics identification technologies and techniques. He has also published about 150 papers and book chapters on both research and review topics in security, security science, forensic science, security risk, and security management.
