In last week’s blog we talked business expected to increase security for the new year to ward off any threats or crime. As well as the importance of protecting guests, employees, property, and inventory.
While hospitals, medical centers, and parking lots were high on the list of potential targets for criminals, schools and event centers are also areas of concerns.
Event and Convention Centers
Event and convention centers host all types of activities. From business meetings, activities, conferences, and even concerts. Some of these events, even occur simultaneously, making the number of people in one place into several thousands, if not hundreds thousands. Security cameras can’t survey this type of crowd, extra security is necessary.
Not only to monitor suspicious activity, but also monitoring entrances and exits, keeping guests from going into restricted areas, and distinguishing threats.
Uniformed security guards can go a long way in preventing an incident from happening in the first place. An elevated security team, guarding the points of entry, exits, baggage checks, and other areas, is often times enough to deter criminal activity.
Schools
Schools are another area of great concern, with the growing number of shootings and violent activity. Parents, teachers, and even students are concerned with what security measures are being put in place to keep our schools safe.
