...Locate the security policy for your school or organization. Based on what you now know about security, do you think it is sufficient? Does it adequately address security for the organization? Is it up to date and timely? What changes would you suggest? Write a one-page paper on your findings in a Word document and submit via file upload here. The security policy for Arundel Senior High School is designed very sufficiently to be implemented by the school. Policy includes detailed rules and responsibilities for each group of the school. The policy defined exactly what the policy statement was for the school, the arrangements that are to be made for the security for the students. The development of the policy is created in such a way where each group must enforce each policy towards the school and students. Even though the security statement is lengthy but it is written in very concisely manner and in easy wording to understand. It is clearly stating the necessary reasons, and includes how the violation of the policies will be addressed. The statement includes risk assessment where the assessment will be completed annually by the Headteacher/ School Manager; the findings will be used in the review of the security policy. The statement is monitored timely by the Headteacher of this policy and reports breaches, failings or security related incidents to the Governing Body. This policy is reviewed annually by the School Manager. The only additions I would like in the policy...

...K-6 School Administration Entry In our current society we have seen an increase of violence at current education centers throughout the United States. School facilities are now easy targets for unstable individuals or groups of people who prey on easy targets for national and world recognition through media sources. One of the projects that I will be addressing with bond monies this year is making a K-6 School Administration entrance secure. Fifteen years ago when threats to society were at a minimal, the marketing and architectural designs were to build entrances that were community friendly. This issue is that the entry area is open with no control points that prevent entry and security to the staff and children. Risk Avoidance Altogether * Entrance to the school will receive CCTV (Closed Circuit Television and Video) monitoring 24 hours per day of entry area and internal lobby. * Badged entry into the front lobby after hours. * Design of new lobby entry that can trap all visitors into a holding point. * Bathroom access from lobby for public use. * Installation of Raptor Visitor management Software that will provide instant sex offender and background checks to prevent unwanted visitors out while tracking those they allow in. * Security system for entrance to prevent unwanted intruders after hours * Motion sensors for lighting that will activate after hours so responding officials can visually see the intruder. * Secure entrance into the...

...What do you rather have security or privacy in society? This two things are essential for most people but confusing at the same time because they want security from invaders from other countries. Also, people want privacy because they don’t want unwanted people to know their business. So in two different ways, some people can’t decide what they really want, security or privacy. So I’ll write about the differences between security and privacy and what should we have in society. The meaning of privacy means the state of being concealed or having secrecy in life or society.People have different definitions for this word because they feel that they want their privacy to enjoy their life without having anybody besides their families and friends know what they up to. According to the article “The Difference between Security and Privacy By Eric Bergeron” states that only people who want privacy really badly are people who have things to hide from the society and wants nobody to find out. But they are other people who want privacy to be able to enjoy their life without having any complications. It’s feasible that people want privacy to enjoy life. But a lot of people are getting...

...is the core of its business operation. What would happen if information from our students or employees is destroyed, tampered with, or even given to a third party for fraudulent use? Our assets are vulnerable through ways of the building being destroyed by a tornado, or files being destroyed by a hacker or even an employee that has been let go. This type of security can be fixed easily by changing the passwords frequently to prevent ex-employees excess to the computer network. If we change the passwords often then old employees would have a more difficult time getting into our computers to damage, alter, or even sell personnel information to a third party. Our computer equipment is inventoried by Teah Johnson every six months and the book are inventoried by Venus Jackson every quarter. The threats to our assets can come by way of a burglary, fire, or even natural disasters. By having a Security Guard on site, during the night, we can control or prevent burglaries, and even a fire. The probability of someone breaking into the building is real good especially if the building is not protected by either having a Security Guard on duty at night or at the very least having an alarm system that goes directly to the local police department. If such an event does occur...

...SEC594 Global and Domestic Security Keller Graduate School of Management Submitted: June 2013 Principle and Program Evaluation After an initial interview, concerning the principle and the company,, we can make a few recommendations as to the extent of the Executive Protection detail that will include the main client as well as his wife and two children. The principle, a CEO worth in excess of $100million, leads a company that has holdings in multiple countries. The company has mining operations in Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Typically, these countries have a rather poor track record of economic growth, and they can be treacherous for anyone that is viewed as “rich”. The indigenous people live in “below-poverty” conditions and therefore have been known to use violence and kidnapping, given the proper opportunities. It will be our job to make sure no one gets a proper opportunity. The CEO is quiet, reserved and does not spend much time in the public eye. He rarely gives interviews and is not readily recognizable by the general public. His reclusiveness can be used to our advantage, as he is not a mark that can be easily identified to others outside the inner circle. Not much is known about the wife’s rituals and habits. We shall assume that she will have the same personality traits and habits as her husband, quiet and reserved. The only information available for the two children is that they attend a private school. We will make the assumption...

...the end of the Cold War have seen a broadening and deepening of the agenda for security issues. Followers of the “Copenhagen School” have argued that the state should no longer be seen as the sole referent object in security and that security issues should encompass more than just the state and military power. Instead, the focus should now be on “Human Security”, where the referent is the individual. States have listened and issues such as the environment, the economy and transnational crime have been securitized under the increasingly broad umbrella of “non-traditional security (NTS) issues”. There is a utility to this approach as it prioritizes an issue in policy hierarchy and puts it on the fast track for resolution. However, the premise of human security also opens the door for just about any issue to be securitized. In such a scenario, which issue should be prioritized and on what grounds is one issue more important than another? In this essay I argue that the utility of this approach comes with caveats and preconditions and that for Southeast Asia and ASEAN, the focus on NTS opens doors for cooperation to deal with problems that require multilateral solutions while at the same time moving the region towards the realization of a true Security Community. Copenhagen School: Nuts and Bolts, Pros and Cons. The basic premise of the Copenhagen School of securitization is that the realm of security studies should not be about a single-minded focus on states and military power...

...BRIEFING ON THE THREAT OF TERRORISM POSED TOWARDS TELECOMS ORGANISATIONS OPERATING IN AFRICA Purpose: The purpose of this briefing note is to present an overview of terrorist threats within Africa, spesifically towards the ... organisation operating in Africa and to make recommendations on how to mitigate the risk. Background: Terrorism: “the United Nations General Assembly has condemned terrorist acts using the following political description of terrorism: "Criminal acts intended or calculated to provoke a state of terror in the general public, a group of persons or particular persons for political purposes are in any circumstance unjustifiable, whatever the considerations of a political, philosophical, ideological, racial, ethnic, religious or any other nature that may be invoked to justify them." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Definitions_of_terrorism Terrorism has become a global threat and is not just confined to the theatre of war, it is also not only targeted at nations involved in those conflicts like the United States (9/11) and Great Britain (the July 7 London Bombings) but also with any nation and organization that is seen as an ally of such nations. ESICS Briefing on THE TERRORISM THREAT LINKED TO THE LIBYAN CRISIS states “obviously on the top of the list of likely targets for Colonel Gaddafi are the United Kingdom and France, they are closely followed by the United States (an old and usual enemy of Libya but also by the Arab countries taking part in the coalition...

...Keller Graduate School of Management Accounting 540: Accounting and Auditing Research Professor: Michael Abner Course Project Week 6 April 11, 2015 Abstract In week 6 assignment, I will write a short essay to sum up my recommendation and conclusion about my finding to present to my client, the director of ABC Investment Group. Since the Director has a limited understanding the US GAAP regarding Debt security, therefore I have to be concise in my presentation. ABC Investment Group is an investment company, and they deal with debt security. Their main concerns are how to recognize and record the transaction on unrealized gains/losses in their holding debt securities, and when they should write down debt securities. The key to the problem lies on how the ACB Investment Group treat their investment. According to FASB ASC 320-10-25 the debt securities are classified in three groups as Trading Security (TD), Available For Sale (AFS), and Held To Maturity (HTM); and each class of debt investment has different accounting method to recording its transaction. Trading Security uses the Fair Value method in account for the gains/losses, and this debt security is the most active portfolio to the company because the objective of this portfolio is to generate profit in a short term by participating in the buying and selling of debt securities. When unrealized gains/losses for trading securities are recognized, they need to record as an earning in income statement, and trading...
