Despite the fact that everywhere around us physical security is replaced by video cameras and Autonomous systems observations, the relevance of the presence of “reliable guys”, which controls the order anywhere, not lost. Please note any institution - be it a Bank, shop or pawn shop in addition to cameras there are also guards, ready to react at any moment. Of such business as physical security services, and we will discuss in this article.

Why our services?

security

The Question of why it need security guards is simple and complex at the same time. Easy it is to specify that employees of the security Agency or of the person empowered guard, has a number of responsibilities that include protection of a particular object or individual, the inspection of people passing the checkpoint, the control over a certain territory or just preservation of any of the events or institutions.

The Complexity of the answer to the question about why do we need physical protection, consists in the specifics of the representatives of this sphere of services. Put simply, everyone understands that one guard standing at the Bank, unable to stop a gang of armed robbers. However, he may divert their attention with his presence; second, to try to delay, to postpone some time to call the police. In this and the specifics of physical protection - of their mission - “to stand with a menacing look”, and act clearly according to the instructions in case of particular threats.

How does the security?

physical security servicesThen, how does the security depend on its type. If it is a physical security representing the importance or having a special mode, the experts in this field work on pre-emption and control. This means that all parts of the protected system (I mean not only personnel, but systems of protection and monitoring) are configured in such a way that at any time to reflect emerging threat. Control is carried out in the form of regular patrols, site inspections and inspection of persons entering the territory or in close proximity to the object.

Another type of services in this area - physical protection of legal entities - works somewhat different principle. Then the service representative shall strictly follow the human object of protection and be ready to repel any threat. In the case of personal security, list possible hazards is significantly less than when working with legal entities. However, this does not mean that the bodyguard must be vigilant or Galatea to treat his work - his reaction in case of threat to a private individual should be definitely faster.

How is the coordination?

For the full protection of a person or object of particular importance, over a wide area and from threats of different nature requires the participation of several employees. Physical security in this case is carried out by a group of professionals whose actions, for greater efficiency, koordiniruyutsya. This happens either among themselves, or from a single control center. Communication is supported by a special negotiating radios or other means of signal transmission, it all depends on the task. Just having the opportunity to tell you how the situation at the work place, what are the potential threats arise, and where now is this or that guard, the whole protection system can function properly.

Who's guarding?

physical protection of legal entities

Of Course, since security activities involve a number of risks and is aimed primarily at ensuring the safety of persons or facilities staff who take such positions, are subject to strict selection on several criteria. First of all, is a certain level of physical preparation, which shows the willingness of the employee to have the opportunity "bare hands" to cope with the enemy, violating the order. This is also the purpose this criterion as a martial arts or experience in sports (Boxing, judo and other martial arts).

In Addition to the physically strong, in security activity shall also be responsible and able to work together people. Often in practice have to deal not with a single enemy, and with a group that plans its activities in such a way as to avoid direct contact with security. It definitely should be considered.

Also for the post of security guard can put other conditions, such as possession of firearms, permission for its use, the ability to drive in extreme conditions and others. It all depends primarily on the specifics. For a security guard in the supermarket, perhaps these criteria are not necessary, unlike the guards or bodyguards.

How is the confrontation of threats?

physical securityThen, as opposed to security threats, and is the main mechanism to ensure its effective operation. Again, it all depends on the company providing the services. Large agencies have their ownfocal point, which keeps in touch with all work units. In the case of, say, the receipt of a signal about the threat from some of the employees, all group on the same site or area to change position, ready to face danger.

Sometimes, security agencies, which are unable on their own to repel the threat, resort to public companies or the police, sending the corresponding information to the duty post.
