Security Tidbits from the desk of STAVA LLC CEO In my 32-years of Intelligence, Counterterrorism and Security experience, one of the biggest, most reoccurring mistakes I have observed is the application of generic security measures to an organization. Contrary to popular demand, security is more than armed guards, concertina wire, closed-circuit televisions (CCTVs) and card access readers. To harden a facility against the adversary, one must truly understand the risks, vulnerabilities and threats (RVTs) associated with a facility. I have interacted with many security professionals that do not know their organization’s high-valued assets, have not walked/touched every part of their facility or holdings, and do not understand the RVTs internally/externally to their facility. Regardless of your organization’s size, a robust security program starts with a comprehensive Vulnerability/Risk Assessment. If your organization requires Security Training and Vulnerability Assessment Services, look no further, STAVA LLC is willing to assist you.

Curious 🤔 After a year of attacks, Houthis plan shipping security seminar | TradeWinds They are probably the world’s least appropriate organisers for a conference on security and shipping. The Houthi rebel group, responsible for launching dozens of attacks on commercial vessels and the deaths of four seafarers in the last year, is planning a seminar and webinar on “security of navigation in the Red Sea” – and it wants some ideas. In an email to TradeWinds, the group has asked for topics for its agenda and insights to “enrich the discussion” at an unspecified venue and date. https://lnkd.in/duz8dtMm
