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...

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 .

Why Do We Need Security Services? Is Reliable And Top Notch Security The Best Answer For Safety?

Image
28 Feb, 2019 Why Do We Need Security Services? Is Reliable And Top Notch Security The Best Answer For Safety? Picked up today’s newspaper and the first headline I read was of a mass shooting in a school. I kept scanning and found another, “two motorbikes were stolen from society during night-time, residents distraught”, another “ bank robbed in day-light, robbers snatched elderly security guard’s gun and held him, hostage”. Now we all know that crime and terror rate has only increased since we were born. And everyone is concerned about their loved ones. The above headlines could have been different if there were better and advanced security services available at the spots. A team of  security guards  at the school could have prevented the attack or else could have minimized the damage and helped the children.  The robberies and crimes could have been prevented, or the perpetrators could have been caught if there were surveillance cameras and alarms ins...
