Protective Operations

<p><strong>Protective Operations: A Handbook for Security and Law Enforcement</strong> is designed as a reference for law enforcement and security organizations tasked with protecting the welfare of an individual or groups of individuals. To be effective and professional protective operations require the incorporation of a variety of skill sets. However many departments and jurisdictions have only limited resources and training available. Filling this void the book identifies issues particular to local law enforcement — and the private security teams that may be called in later — and offers suggestions and guidance for confronting high-threat scenarios as well as the more mundane protective details.</p><p>Highlights:</p><ul> <p> </p> <li>Details the essence of local law enforcement protective operations that are run in large part covertly </li> <li>Examines threat assessment from both hostile organizations and unknown adversaries</li> <li>Provides a solid understanding of operational security situational awareness and surveillance detection</li> <li>Includes examples from real-world attacks occurring over the past sixty years </li> <li>Reinforces the need for training in specific tactics and techniques</li> <li>Emphasizes training for confronting the adversary</li> <li>Focuses on the economics of providing the most protection for the least cost</li> <li>Addresses issues surrounding possible direct violations of the law and department policy and procedures</li> </ul><p>The author’s decades of training research and experience provide invaluable tested and proven protocols for keeping subjects safe in a hostile environment.</p>
