DESIGN AND EVALUATION OF PHYSICAL PROTECTION SYSTEMS
To order this title, and for more information, click here Second Edition
By Mary Lynn Garcia, Sandia National Laboratories, Albuquerque, NM, USA
Description Design and Evaluation of Physical Security Systems, 2e, includes updated references to security expectations and changes since 9/11. The
threat chapter includes references to new threat capabilities in Weapons of Mass Destruction, and a new figure on hate crime groups in
the US. All the technology chapters have been reviewed and updated to include technology in use since 2001, when the first edition was
published. Garcia has also added a new chapter that shows how the methodology described in the book is applied in transportation systems.
College faculty who have adopted this text have suggested improvements and these have been incorporated as well. This second edition
also includes some references to the author's recent book on Vulnerability Assessment, to link the two volumes at a high level.
Audience
Facilities managers, security managers focusing on intrusion detection, access control, electronic security device management and environmental
design practices. Security engineering students of all levels.
