Description
The Corporate Security Professional's Handbook on Terrorism is a professional reference that clarifies the difference between
terrorism against corporations and their assets, versus terrorism against government assets. It addresses the existing misconceptions
regarding how terrorism does or does not affect corporations, and provides security professionals and business executives with a better
understanding of how terrorism may impact them.
Consisting three sections, Section I provides an explanation of what terrorism is,
its history, who engages in it, and why. Section II focuses on helping the security professional develop and implement an effective anti-terrorism
program in order to better protect the employees and assets of the corporation. Section III discusses the future as it relates to the
likelihood of having to deal with terrorism.
The book provides the reader with a practitioner's guide, augmented by a historical assessment
of terrorism and its impact to corporations, enabling them to immediately put in place useful security processes and methods to protect
their corporate interests against potential acts of terror. This is guide is an essential tool for preparing security professionals and
company executives to operate in an increasingly hostile global business environment.
