"Security Operations: An Introduction to Planning and Conducting Private Security Details for High-Risk Areas, Second Edition was written for one primary purpose: to keep people alive by introducing them to private security detail tactics and techniques. The book provides an understanding the basic concepts and rules that need to be followed in protective services, including what comprises good security practice. This Second Edition is fully updated to include new case scenarios, threat vectors, and new ambush ploys and attack tactics used by opportunistic predators and seasoned threat actors with ever-advanced, sophisticated schemes. Security has always been a necessity for conducting business operations in both low- and high-risk, regardless of the threat level in the operating environment. Overseas, those with new ideas or businesses, can frequently be targets for both political and criminal threat agents intent on doing harm. Even in the United States, people become targets because of positions held, publicity, politics, economics, or other issues that create unwanted attention to a person, their family, or business operations. Security Operations, Second Edition provides an introduction of what duties a security detail should perform and how to effectively carry out those duties. The book can be used by a person traveling with a single bodyguard or someone being moved by a full security detail. Features include: Identifies what can pose a threat, how to recognize threats, and where threats are most likely to be encountered Presents individuals and companies with the security and preparedness tools to protect themselves when operating in various environments, especially high-risk regions Provides an understanding of operational security when in transit, to vary route selection, and keep destinations and movement plans out of the public view Outlines the tools and techniques needed for people to become security conscious, and situationally aware, for their own safety and the safety of those close to them An equal help to those just entering the protection business or people and companies that are considering hiring a security detail, Security Operations is a thorough, detailed and responsible approach to this serious and often high-risk field"--
