Notes From The Owner

What is Good Security?

It amazes me how serious security has become today and yet some people do not take security seriously. As a businessman who has the unique privilege of providing security in a variety of environments, I see first hand how some people view the presence of security. Some people view security as a nuisance and completely unnecessary until something negative happens to them, then they want security act promptly. Some business owners will spend millions of dollars constructing a place of style and then they are unwilling to spend the money to hire appropriate security to protect their million-dollar investment. That’s like buying a 500k sports car and throwing the keys to your 16 year old and saying drive this car for me. The whole world has been awakened to the necessity of security on the ocean with the recent pirate attacks on vessels delivering goods. The fact is, the need for good security is rapidly becoming necessary everywhere.

The next time you are in a room with security present take some time to watch them. There are five characteristics you should recognize if the security is any good.

• Alert
Being aware of everything around them at all times is paramount to prevention when it comes to security
• Approachable
Being open to communication is a key component to maintain peace
• Physically Fit
The physical condition of an individual speaks volumes about their discipline
• Well Groomed
The personal appearance of an individual offers important insight to their attention to detail
• Body Posture
How an individual stands and the position of their hands will tell if they are committed to the job or just getting through a shift. Good Security should appear bold and strong yet approachable and you should always feel safe in their presence.
