ABSTRACT

The use of a personnel security company (PSC) for protection in a hostile area is a decision that needs to be made at a corporate level; not only will it be expensive, but it can also drastically change the perception of the company in the area in which it wants to operate. when someone hires a security company, their profile will go up in the area even if it is a low-profile company, new people now working, new vehicles in the area of operation, new rules and restrictions, etc. But, when a PSC is necessary to work in some environments, the methods that the readers choose to counter the threat to the company that has hired them, will determine if they are protecting their business interests. There are things that a security provider needs to do for the client, and things that need to be accomplished by both client and provider that will help meet the client’s security objectives.
