The Professional's Guide to Planning, Managing, and Providing Secure Transportation by Joseph Autera

 

 

From the dawn of time, keeping others safe from harm has primarily been an exercise in assessing and managing risks. Those who have excelled at identifying risks and figuring out ways to eliminate as many of those risks as possible, while effectively managing those which remain have not only survived but flourished within the secure transportation profession.Since 218 A.D., when a carriage in which Chinese Emperor Qin Shi Huang was traveling was attacked by a hammer wielding would-be assassin, the security professionals responsible for managing the safety and security risks faced by public figures - ranging from corporate executives and government officials to entertainers and high net worth individuals - have come to understand a universal truth. The highest risk period of time for those they are responsible for protecting is when they are moving from one location to another by vehicle.Relying on lessons learned from decades of planning, managing, and providing secure transportation, as well as training others to do the same, this book explores the strategies and tactics that have been proven effective at providing the framework needed to successfully manage and mitigate those risks.
