Role of Private Security Forces in Counter-Terrorism

Image
Photo Post 13 Mar, 2019 The  Private Security  Sector is growing day by day tremendously. The very obvious indication of this growth is that the Government  Security Services are proving inadequate for whatever reasons and the sophistication in today’s technology has increased the need for security in many ways. As much as we are advancing and trying to make things better, anarchy always makes things utter chaos and leaves us at the bottom. The attacks on the World Trade Center and the  Mumbai  attacks ( the  Taj Hotel  ) are examples of such anarchy. Putting it in simple words, today’s  Private Security Forces  have a simple purpose — deterrence against any kind of anarchy and crimes. They are employed around universities, schools, hospitals, malls, corporate offices, hotels, restaurants etcetera to safeguard these places where government security cannot provide protection 24/7. Prevention is always better than...

Duties of a Chief Security Officer (CSO)

Image
Photo Post 12 Mar, 2019 The post of  Chief Security Officer  is a versatile post and the  duties  vary from organization to organization. It all depends on what kind of Chief Security Officer are we talking about. In big corporations, the main job of the  CSO  is to oversee and maintain all the security-related architecture of the corporation. Whether it is checking that all of the security personnel are doing their jobs perfectly or maintaining and protecting the sensitive information of the corporation and making sure that the systems of the corporation don’t get breached, its the job of the  Chief Security Officer. The lines between the Chief Security Officer and Chief Information  Security Officer  usually get blurred in big corporations. But we will focus on the duties of CSO according to our nation where the Private Security Sector is still a developing industry. The main duties of the CSO in  India  mainly...

The Role of Women In Today’s Private Security Scenario

Image
Photo Post 08 Mar, 2019 What is the first image that pops in our minds when we hear the word  bodyguard ? A big guy probably over 6 foot tall, flexing his heavily built arms in uniform, hands crossed in front, standing behind some wealthy person who needs protection or maybe not, but the intimidation is real. Some  Bollywood  fanatics might even think of Salman Khan due to some reasons. But nobody thinks of an alert  woman  in full uniform as a  bodyguard standing behind the wealthy person, not looking intimidating, but to be true is extremely more dangerous than the heavily built guy due to the rigorous training she had and her unorthodox and unusual methods which gives her an edge in the field. What makes the actions of this female security personnel unorthodox and unusual? And what is the convention that we have, making us imagine a big man as a bodyguard but not a woman? The traditional idea is that men are physically more str...

Image
Photo Post 07 Mar, 2019 In recent days we have seen exponential growth in the sector of  Private Security Services  and a lot of places we visit have their own guards who make us follow some rules that might not be necessary to follow according to the constitution, but nonetheless, we have to follow them. Let’s evaluate what is the reason that we are compelled to follow these rules. And what authority these  Private Policemen have ? The first thing we should know that: Private Security Guards  are not the same as Government elected policemen. As such any  private security guard  has none authority by himself in public. They are like any other common citizen of the nation and have the same rights as any other citizen while not on the job. But when they are hired for any job, for instance, to regulate and check incoming guests at any event, you will have to obey them. So we see that actually, they are the enforcers of the laws made by...

Photo Post 02 Mar, 2019 In today’s world, the human mind works on one philosophy of perceiving an image according to what perception is being made into their mind from around the society, their cultural environment and all these are observed from what people are performing around them in terms of  security  terms for any kind of assets in the world. This misconception arises due to the idea that people have, that only wealthy people with jewelry and mink coats or big organizations with valuables to protect hire  security guards .
