ABSTRACT

Those who are responsible for the security of an organization often remember one very important fact that those who are specialized tend to forget. They know that ensuring the security of an organization requires the harmonized and cooperative efforts of many sub-disciplines. Physical security has had to adapt to an increasingly technology-enabled world and must begin to truly understand the operations and implications of network-enabled technology. Organizations that conduct background checks on personnel are learning how to adapt to an increasingly global workforce. Cyber security, on the other hand, is only really coming to grips with the fact that the network is not, in fact, the center of the universe.
