from physically accessing a building, facility, stored information and guidance on how to design structures to resist potentially hostile acts. - a system of barriers placed between a potential intruder and the material

or installation to be protected. Security - the predictable state or condition which is free from harm, injury, destruction, intimidation or fear. Freedom from fear or danger or defense against crime. Physical Security System - a barrier or system of barriers placed between the potential intruder and the matter to be protected. Protective device against hazards, threats, vulnerability and risks. Purpose/Goals of Physical security

1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

deter potential intruders - ex. warning signs, perimeter markings distinguish authorized from unauthorized people - ex. using pass card delay or prevent intrusion attempt - ex. wall, door lock, safe detect intrusion and monitor/record intruders - e. CCTV, intrusion alarm trigger appropriate incident responses - ex. security guards

How to deter potential intruders

1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

install warning signs build fences put vehicle barriers install vehicle height restriction implement restricted access point install sight lighting and trenches

How to distinguish authorized from unauthorized people - access control at the

1. gates 2. doors 3. locks

How to detect intrusion

1. install alarms 2. install intrusion detection monitor 3. install video monitoring system - ex. cctv

Vigiles (in Rome) - origin of the watchmen although their principal duty was as a fire brigade. Notable security guards:

1.

Frank Wills - detected the Watergate burglars ultimately leading to the resignation of US president Richard Nixon.

Target hardening - the reduction in criminal opportunity, generally through the use of physical barriers, architectural design and enhanced security measures of a particular location. Defensible Space - the range of mechanisms that combine to bring an environment under the control of its residents.

Demography - the study of the characteristics of population groups. Principles of Physical Security

1. An intruder must be able to acquire access to the property in order to benefit. 2. The type of access necessary will depend upon a number of variable factors and therefore may be achieved in a number of ways. 3. There is no impenetrable barrier. 4. Security is built upon a system of defense in depth resulting to accumulated delay time which may lead to the apprehension of the intruder. 5. Each installation is different from the others. 2 Kinds of Barriers 1. Natural 2. Artificial 5 Types of Barriers 1. Human 2. Animal 3. Natural 4. Energy/Electrical/Electronic 5. Structural 3 Line of Defense 1. Perimeter Barrier - 1st line of defense. 2. Building Exterior - 2nd line of defense. 3. Interior Controls - 3rd line of defense. Perimeter Barrier - main purpose is to deny or impede access or exit of unauthorized persons. Other Purposes 1. It defines the boundary of the property to be secured. 2. It creates a physical and psychological deterrent to unauthorized entry. 3. It delays intrusion, thus facilitating apprehension of intruders. 4. It assists in a more efficient and economical employment of guards. 5. It facilitates and improves the control of pedestrian and vehicular traffic. Components: 1. Types of Fencing (solid/full view) 2. The top guard 3. Types of Protective Alarms Systems 4. Types of Protective and Emergency Lighting's 5. CCTV Cameras and other Electronic Security Systems/Energy Barriers Building Exterior - Components: 1. walls 2. Doors 3. Windows 4. Roof Openings 5. Fire Escapes 6. Protective Alarm Systems 7. Protective and Emergency lightnings 8. CCTV Cameras and other Electronic Security Systems/Energy Barriers Interior Controls - Components:

1. ID Systems 2. Protective Alarm Systems 3. Protective Emergency Lighting's

4. Communication Systems 5. CCTV Cameras and other Electronic Security Systems/Energy Barriers 6. Restricted Areas (storage areas/utilities) 7. Access Control 8. Key Control 9. Emergency Plans 10.Guards Natural barriers or features - such as cliffs,ravines,and rivers which delay or make more difficult to entry of intruders. Barriers - any line of boundary and separation,natural or artificial,places,or serving as limitation or obstruction.Anything that bars,keep out,obstruct progress,or prevents encroachment or intrusion. Structural barriers - features constructed by man regardless of their original intent that tends to delay the intruder.ex.walls,ceilings,locks,safe,windows. Human barriers - guards,charges of quarters,office personnel,shop workers etc. who stand between the intruder and the matter to be protected. Animal barriers - usually guard dog.ex. trained German shepherds used as guards,goose,and turkeys can also be included. Energy barriers - usually electrical or electronics devices used to provide assistance to guard personnel.ex. protective lightnings,antiintrusion devices. Full view fence - it is designed primarily to prevent physical access between two areas.Constructed in such a way that visual access is permitted through the fence. Physical Security Features: 1.Natural barriers - natural terrains features must be considered from the stand point of their values to intruder as cover and concealment.Normally the first type considered very often we have to accept and work around them. 2.Fences a. solid fence - one is constructed in such a way that visual access through the fenced structure is denied. b. full view fence - constructed in such a way that usual access is permitted through the fence. Advantages of a full view fence 1. removing patrols and stationary guards are able to keep area surrounding of the installation under observation. 2. it does not create shadows which would provide cover and concealment for the intruder. Disadvantages of a full view fence 1. It allows visual access to the installation,its personnel,its guard and its activities. 2. It allows the intruders to become familiar with the movements and the time schedule of the guard patrols thereafter allowing him to pick the time for attempting penetration which would most advantageous to the intruder.

Advantages of solid fence 1. Denies visual access of the installation of the intruder.

2. Denies the opportunity for the intruder to become familiar with the personnel,activities and the time schedule of the movements of guards in the installations. Disadvantages of solid fence 1. It prevents the guards from observing the area around the installation. 2. It creates shadows which may be used by the intruder for cover and concealment. Minimum acceptable requirements for fence used security barriers 1. Height - 8 feet at a minimum. 2. Slack at the bottom - not to exceed 2 inches.If the fences are not tight then it should extend even closer to the ground. 3. Wooden fence post - minimum horizontal dimension of 4X4 inches. 4.Steel fence post - the round type should at least be 2 inches at the smallest diameter. 5. Fence post - should be set in concrete or in firm soil using commercial drive anchors to a depth of 3 feet and the maximum distance post is 10 feet. 6. Fence top (Top Guard) - there should be something on the top of the fence to deter persons attempting to go over fence.ex.use of barb wire overhang.The arms holding the barbwire should be extended at 45 degree angle in the direction of the expected approach. 7. Fence area - it should be declared trees and vegetation and debris of other materials which would offer concealment of the intruder or would aid him in scaling the fence. 8. Fence Gates - gates should be limited to the no. necessary for efficient and sage operation of the installation. 9. Fence Opening - all opening in the fence in excess of 96 inches must be locked barbed or screen in such a way that they may be interlocked and opened from the inside and only by selected personnel. 10.Multiple fence - is used should at least be 10 feet apart and the overhang on the top of the inner fence should point inward. 4 Basic functions that must be accomplished by the guard system 1. Detect intruders 2. Sound alarms 3. Apprehend unauthorized personnel 4. Identify authorized personnel Personnel Control Identification 2 Types of identification 1. Personal Recognition - is the most effective 2. Artificial Identification - badges,passes etc. System of Employment of Personnel Control Identification 1. Pass system - a method used by security to screen visitors or person admitted into building premises....
