Organisational security practitioners and the decision-makers who rely on their advice need to stay abreast of changes to risk-based protective security and its practice. So do all your staff whether they be the chief security office (CSO), security operations manager or security risk advisors.
Onboarding and initial training of security staff
It is in your organisational best interests to training up your in house professionals so they can prepare, plan and respond to security requirements. Providence supplies legislative compliance, industry specific training to introduce staff to all the basics of security risk, assessment and management. There are two broad approaches or paradigms that have defined the mind-set organisations adopt when they manage security: a risk or a compliance approach.
The risk approach seeks to assess a range of information to determine what controls are best placed and in what priority to minimise the probability of an event occurring that impacts its assets.
The compliance approach is driven by adherence to and conformance with a set of stated security requirements that protect assets, regardless of what the environmental issues might be.
Our course work enables new staff in the field to weigh the pros and cons of each approach and consider which factors most influence risk within the organisation. As professionals they must learn how to assemble the relevant facts and assess risk to design and implement relevant security controls.
We offer to develop and deliver in-house Security Office and Regional Security Advisor (RSA) training in security zone certification and risk identification, certification planning, security risk assessment and treatment plans. An example of how we train collaboratively with an organisation would be:
In the context of supply chain resilience and enabling safer and easier access to supply we have worked with the Department of Home Affairs and Border Force to enable their Australian Trusted Trader (ATT) program and run the security part of that training program.
The in depth course covers:
Our graduates understand in detail what threats are including the various Mos of actors in the field, what constitutes a security risk event (SRE) and how to treat risk.
