To The Workplace Security Professional:

After September 11, practically each and every private, corporate and institutional security professional is concerned about the possibility of terrorism and bombings occurring in their respective workplace.

The increased emphasis in public safety training on weapons of mass destruction and the threat that these devices will be encountered by law enforcement and security professionals makes it imperative that professionals of all kinds have at least a working knowledge of the threat and the methods for coping with it.

It is difficult to train in this area because the number of trainers with the necessary scope of extensive knowledge, are few.

That makes the release of the newly updated...

BOMB COUNTERMEASURES 2.0 CD-ROM 

FOR SECURITY PROFESSIONALS ...

extremely timely because it provides an excellent overview of this topic, and one that can be presented at a time and place of the professional security and law enforcement users choosing. Better yet, the new version offers valuable new material and enhanced functionality.

The newly updated CD-ROM, consisting of 10 lessons covering an array of topics, including:

--Lesson One: Threat Introduction

--Lesson two: Characteristics of Explosive Devices

--Lesson Three: Bomb Security Planning

--Lesson Four: Defense Against Courier-Delivered Bombs

--Lesson Five: Bomb Search and threat Response

--Lesson Six: Defense Against Mail Bombs

--Lesson Seven: Defense Against Anti-Vehicle Bombs

--Lesson Eight: Defense Against WMD-Scale Bombs

--Lesson Nine: Blast Mitigation Design

--Lesson Ten: Post-Blast Response Procedures

It further incorporates interactive exercises to test one's ability in applying the key security principles learned. The CD-ROM format is a truly useful and much-needed resource from which to develop bomb and terrorism policy and procedures for your workplace and industry, especially when and where safety and security are concerned.

It can also serve as an on-going in-service training module and a ready-reference guide, should the need arise at any given moment.

As a source for policy and procedures, the

BOMB COUNTERMEASURES 2.0 CD-ROM

FOR SECURITY PROFESSIONALS

provides a comprehensive overview of the key threats that security professionals might encounter.

The amount of information that has been compiled in a useful format is unparalleled. Many of the lessons are broken down into steps to assist in developing policies and procedures in countermeasures, searches, evacuation protocols, and post-blast procedure.

As a continuous initial, in-service and follow up training tool, the

BOMB COUNTERMEASURES 2.0 CD-ROM

FOR SECURITY PROFESSIONALS

offers 10 modules to train security officers, law enforcement and others on comprehensive searches, security measures, assistance to building occupants, and a host of other important topics.

The program does not purport to be a technical guide to disarming bombs, but rather a guide on what to look for in identifying and responding to bomb incidents, which is equally useful in schools and institutional settings where trained and untrained personnel commonly take part in interim searches for things out of the ordinary.

Each lesson lasts from one to two hours and concludes with a review quiz of 10 questions.

As a ready-reference guide, BOMB COUNTERMEASURES 2.0 CD-ROM FOR SECURITY PROFESSIONALS is unmatched.
