Keeping it Green A
t City Security magazine we care about how our magazines are printed and the paper they are printed on.
Our printers are certified members of the World Land Trust and the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC). The World Land Trust initiative invests in preserving environmentally important forests which are under imminent threat of deforestation through carbon balancing. Carbon balancing is a scheme that invests money in offsetting the amount of CO2 produced during the manufacturing process. The lead patron of this scheme is Sir David Attenborough. The FSC is an international non-profit organisation dedicated to promoting responsible forestry. We believe in making a real statement and a positive contribution towards saving our planet by reducing carbon impact.

© CITY SECURITY MAGAZINE – SPRING 2024 W
elcome to our spring edition, where we confront the persistent threat of international terrorism against the backdrop of ongoing global conflict and violence. This issue shares the essential security measures required to safeguard our people and businesses from terrorist attacks and other crime risks.
To support security professionals in countering the significant threat, we have gathered a broad range of advice and updates. We are pleased to welcome back Figen Murray OBE, who advocates for progress with Martyn’s Law. Additionally, insights from Counter Terrorism Policing, PSNA, and experts in hostile reconnaissance, insider threat, and crisis communications bring valuable guidance.
As well as guidance on developing your security response, we also spotlight a number of security solutions providers who explain their approach.
In an exclusive interview, we sit down with Dominic Reid OBE, the Pageantmaster of the Lord Mayor’s Show, to delve into the history of this ancient event and the security protocols surrounding it.
The City of London Crime Prevention Association continues its commendable efforts with Preventing Violence Against Women and Girls and Domestic Abuse. This edition spotlights the Safe Havens project, alongside ongoing measures such as Taxi Marshalling, promotion of the Ask for Angela campaign, the Building Security Certification scheme, and advocacy for employers to join EIDA (Employers’ Initiative on Domestic Abuse). It's imperative for security professionals to disseminate information about these and related schemes to colleagues, friends, and family.
We extend our congratulations to the top three finalists in our Article of the Year 2023 competition: Christian Berenger for "Addressing the Current Labour Challenges in the Security Sector" at Team Software, Graham Bassett for "Focus on a Security Team: The South Bank Patrol", and Jon Felix from CIS Security for "The Risk Management Process: Five Key Steps". The winner will be announced at the City of London Crime Prevention Association meeting in March.
City Security magazine will be available at the Security & Policing event in March in Farnborough and at the Security Event at the NEC from 30 April to 2 May.
We hope to see you there!
