TOPIC 2 Flashcards
this is the broadest type of security.
PHYSICAL SECURITY
-As a major division of industrial security, it can be defined as those measures taken to prevent physical access or entry to an installation or area by unauthorized personnel.
PHYSICAL SECURITY
-in order that barrier could prevent unauthorized access and serves its purpose very well, there should be an integration of all barriers adopted in the installation
DEFENSE IN DEPTH MEANS BARRIER AFTER BARRIER
covers other types of security to protect equipment, documents, facilities and materials against theft, damage, sabotage or espionage. It also encompasses protection of personnel from any criminal act.
PHYSICAL SECURITY
PRINCIPLES OF PHYSICAL SECURITY
- DEFENSE IN DEPTH MEANS BARRIER AFTER BARRIER
- EACH INSTALLATION IS DIFFERENT
- THERE IS NO IMPENETRABLE BARRIER
- SURREPTITIOUS VERSUS NON - SURREPTITIOUS ENTRY
- ENEMY AGENTS MUST ACCESS
-Since each installation is different, each will have different problems to overcome.
-The security procedures will not be adequate for all installations
EACH INSTALLATION IS DIFFERENT
- The possibility of surreptitious entry is the greatest hazard from the standpoint of counter- intelligence security because it is usually difficult to determine that the information has been compromised.
-No action is taken to neutralize the act of espionage because surreptitious entry is not usually detected.
SURREPTITIOUS VERSUS NON - SURREPTITIOUS ENTRY
-For the unfriendly government or organization, they are willing to devote enough time, money, personnel, materials, and imagination in passing barriers. So physical security attempts to build defense by using a certain barrier.
THERE IS NO IMPENETRABLE BARRIER
-No action is taken to neutralize the act of espionage because ______ is not usually detected.
SURREPTITIOUS ENTRY
is the greatest hazard from the standpoint of counter- intelligence security because it is usually difficult to determine that the information has been compromised.
SURREPTITIOUS ENTRY
secretively way to enter a place without being detected
SURREPTITIOUS ENTRY
enter the place without cover, they can be easily detected
NON-SURREPTITIOUS ENTRY
- acquisition of information is the ultimate results and the means and form in which the information is obtained
ENEMY AGENTS MUST ACCESS
- any physical structure whether natural or man-made capable of restricting, deterring, delaying or preventing illegal and unauthorized access to an installations
BARRIER
GENERAL TYPES OF PHYSICAL SECURITY BARRIERS
- NATURAL BARRIER
- MAN-MADE BARRIER
- structural constructions like fences, walls, floors, roofs, grill, bars, roadblocks or other physical means to deter or impede penetration
MAN-MADE BARRIER
SPECIFIC TYPES OF PHYSICAL SECURITY BARRIERS
- NATURAL BARRIERS
- STRUCTURAL BARRIERS
- HUMAN BARRIERS
- ANIMAL BARRIERS
- ENERGY BARRIERS
-these are offered by nature which could obstruct or delay the passageway of potential intruders
NATURAL BARRIER
- Include mountains, cliffs, canyons, ravines, seas, marshes, desserts, or terrain difficult to traverse.
NATURAL BARRIERS
- Are usually shepherd dogs trained for and used as guards, aside from dogs there are other animals that can be used also, like a goose.
ANIMAL BARRIERS
- Are those constructed by man regardless of their original intent that tend to delay the intruder.
Examples: walls, ceilings, door, and fences etc.
STRUCTURAL BARRIERS
- Include guards charges of quarters office and shop workers, who stand between the intruder and the matter to be protected.
HUMAN BARRIERS
Dogs can sense _____ than a man, however they do have weaknesses such as can’t recognize identity
10 million times
is popular as animal barriers in England
Goose/Geese (Gansa)
- Are usually electrical and electronic devices that could assist security personnel in detecting intrusions.
Examples: protected lighting, and anti-intrusion devices
ENERGY BARRIERS
5 LEVELS OF PHYSICAL SECURITY
- MINIMUM SECURITY
- LOW LEVEL SECURITY
- MEDIUM LEVEL SECURITY
- HIGH LEVEL SECURITY
- MAXIMUM SECURITY
- It is a system designed to impede unauthorized external act such as simple intrusion to armed attack.
MINIMUM SECURITY
-used of simple physical barriers such as doors and windows with ordinary locks
MINIMUM SECURITY
- It is a system designed to impede and detect some unauthorized external activity such as on small retail store, storage warehouses.
LOW LEVEL SECURITY
✔ Basic local alarm systems
✔ Simple security lighting
✔ Basic security physical barrier
✔ High security locks
LOW LEVEL SECURITY
- It is designed to impede, detect, and assess most external activity and some unauthorized internal activity that range from simple shoplifting to conspiracy to commit sabotage.
MEDIUM LEVEL SECURITY
-large manufacturing plants, large bonded warehouses and mega malls are suited for medium security level
MEDIUM LEVEL SECURITY
This includes the following:
✔ Use of advance intrusion alarm system that is monitored 24 hrs
✔ Establishments of perimeter and perimeter barriers or Guard Dogs
✔ Use of unarmed guards (with Mano-Mano combat training) and equipped with basic communication gadgets
MEDIUM LEVEL SECURITY
- It is a system designed to impede detect, and assess, most unauthorized external and internal activities of certain prisons, defense contractors’ pharmaceutical companies and sophisticated electronic manufacturers.
HIGH LEVEL SECURITY
This includes of the following:
✔ Close circuit television (CCTV)
✔ Perimeter alarm system
✔ High security lighting
✔ Highly trained armed guards
✔ Control designs
✔ Coordination with local law enforcement agencies
HIGH LEVEL SECURITY
-is designed to impede, detect and assess most unauthorized external and internal activities of certain highly sensitive establishments and places such as:
✔ Maximum prison cells
✔ Military bases
✔ Nuclear facilities and among others
MAXIMUM SECURITY
This includes the application of following:
a. Highly-sensitive, sophisticated and advance alarm system
b. An armed highly-trained and well-screened guards detailed 24 hrs (on-site response force)
MAXIMUM SECURITY
-any physical barrier used to supplement the protection of an inside perimeter.
