About this episode
This episode discusses critical security blind spots, including chemical and biological attack detection and multitenant building security challenges.
Chemical and biological attack attempts can be hard to detect, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t happening, including at major events and sports games, says Jeff Brodeur in this month’s Security Management Highlights podcast, sponsored by Acoem. We look at other blind spots this episode, including in multitenant building security with René Reider, CPP, PSP, who explains how changing perspectives from flat, concentric circles of security to vertical strategies makes a difference for tenants. Then, Kim Pacelli outlines some of the frequently encountered challenges in discrimination and Title IX investigations and how security personnel can get involved.
