Summary

Proactive Security Administration presents the current theory and practice of security operations in both the public and private sectors. Organizations must implement a comprehensive strategic plan for security operations in order to survive and thrive in the competitive global economy. This text presents security as policies, operations and resources directed to the protection of assets and clients. The impact of the 9/11 attacks on public and private security is an important focus of the text. As well, the influence of technology on security in relation to protection and threat assessment is an important focus. Accordingly, homeland security, cybercrime and internet security, digital protection systems, and internal and external fraud are examined. Model policies and procedures are presented throughout the book, as well as a number of case problems that may be used for in-class exercises.

Unlike other texts, Proactive Security Administration focuses on needs and services and less on whether security is provided by the public police or a private security company. The reality is that many public police departments and investigative services have state powers directed for security protection and investigation of crimes related to certain governmental services.

Excerpts

We would like to thank the many students, officers, investigators, and administrators we have taught in college classrooms and training academies for their insight, ideas, and concerns on the administration of security service organizations. Today many are senior administrators and policy makers in police and security service organizations.A number of current administrators provided critical insights. They include Thomas Ryan, former State University of New York at Oswego police administrator and senior partner, CRJ Associates; Bernard Drobnicki, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute; William Quirk, Munson Williams Proctor Institute and ASIS regional vice president; the security directors and police chiefs of the State University of New York; and Mark Fettinger and the training and management staff at the New York State Office of Public Safety, Division of Criminal Justice Services.Several members of industry organizations and law enforcement agencies have shared their knowledge and expertise with us over the years, much of which is reflected in this effort. They include Gary Gordon, executive director of the Economic Crime Institute and our colleague at Utica College; Robert Weaver and Robert Caltabiano of the U.S. Secret Service's New York Electronic Crime Task Force; Joseph Giordano and Chester Maciag of the Air Force Research Laboratory-Information Directorate; Michael Woodson of the High Technology Crime Investigators Association; and various members of the International Association of Financial Crimes Investigators, the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners, and the Digital Forensics Research Workshop.Special acknowledgements go those executives who teach at the Executive Development Institute of the International Association of Campus Law Enforcement Administrators, who are always sharing new concepts and trends. They are Sue Riseling, University of Wisconsin; John King, Tufts University; Oliver Clark, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign; and David Zambri, University of Central Florida.George Curtis thanks his family-Lorraine, Michael, and Melissafor allowing him to usurp family time and for their support and encouragement in completing this task. He also appreciates the collaborative and supportive environment nurtured by colleagues at Utica College of Syracuse University, as well as the constant encouragement and support of graduate and undergraduate students.Bruce McBride gives thanks to his family for their patience and support: Barbara, Robbie, Megan, and Brian. He also says thank you to his colleagues and friends at Utica College of Syracuse University, and to the students of CRJ 300 (Spring 2004) who examined the concepts of this book.We would like to thank the reviewers of this edition: Neal Strehlow, Fox Valley Technical College; Norman Bates, Northeastern University; and David Mullins, Webster University.
