SECURITY ISSUE 64 - SUMMER 2017 O


ur thoughts and condolences are with the victims, and their families, of the recent Westminster and Manchester attacks, as well as all those in the emergency services and the security profession who responded to these atrocious incidents.


Given these events and the recent worldwide WannaCry ransomware attack that affected the NHS, our summer edition has dual themes of cyber resilience and security technology and their place in counter terror efforts.


In an illuminating interview with Chief Constable Stephen Kavanagh of Essex Police, he outlines vital role the internet plays in terrorism today and the significant challenge of keeping abreast of the industrial and diverse scale of cybercrime


Although cybercrime is often viewed as solely a complex technological challenge, Micheal Yeomans outlines how to focus less on technology and more on how good cyber resilience follows basic security principles.

One of the key challenges in facing up to cybercrime is the chronic shortage of suitably skilled people. Brian Higgins explains some of the lengths he has gone to in encouraging more young people, especially women, into the world of cyber security. Peter French discusses this further and describes the senior roles available.

Terrorism and cybercrime are challenges that security professionals regularly face and Stephen Shackell overviews how Global Security Operations Centres (GSOCs) can support your response. Jeff Little discusses the paradigm shift forwards in security technology and makes a call for further development in some priority areas. Alan Chua from Singapore poses the question on what security will look like in ten years’ time. We also discuss what’s really new in security technology with views on automation, access control systems and counter drone technology.


In a technology-focused issue, and in light of recent incidents, David Mundell points out that technology is not the only panacea and it is also through the intelligent use of security technology by highly trained and motivated staff that meaningful results can be achieved.


Looking ahead, our autumn issue focuses on professionalisation, career development, training and qualifications in security, as well


as retail security. For our winter issue, we will spotlight global security with expert comments from leaders in security.

We hope you enjoy the read and your feedback will always be welcome.
