Testimonials: Security Focus Package

The Department of Justice is planning to launch a new pilot program so body camera’s can be more widely used across the country. Federal officials plan to grant almost $20 million in funding across the country to law enforcement agencies. These agencies will have to have their own policies in place before being able to buy cameras (Berman). These cameras are small pager, sized cameras that clip onto an officers uniform or can be worn as a head set.

The purpose of this paper is to discuss Target’s strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats. This paper will also talk about how Porter’s Five affects Target’s business decisions.

Both Wireshark and NetWitness Investigator can be used for packet capture and analysis. Which tool is preferred for each task, and why?

Today, law enforcement agencies, or more specifically police officers, are under constant scrutiny from their peers as well as outside sources. Many of these problems arise from how the police treat and deal with these citizens. There is however a solution to these problems, which can not only improve officer safety, but can also protect anyone else that the officer encounters. The solution to this problem is officer mounted camera systems, or better known as body cameras. These body cameras capture almost everything an officer see’s as well as hears. This allows for protection against a police officer as well as protection for a citizen who was scrutinized for something he or she might have done or not. Body cameras are ever increasing in policing and have many benefit’s as well as draw backs.

Employee theft at parking and other companies is one of the big issues. One study indicates that businesses are losing more money due to employee theft than from shoplifters. The study explained that, "On a per case average, these employees steal approximately 5.9 times the amount stolen by shoplifters ($665.77 vs. $113.30)." Solutions for Enterprise Security Leaders, (2012). (P 1). Surveillance cameras will provide a great benefit to parking garages. It can help to protect property, customers and employees, helping the business remain competitive. According to Morton (2012), "not only can surveillance catch a crime in progress, but documentation of a vehicle accidents, assault, or even a slip-and fall incident can be valuable." (P 3) This research proposal will cover data from Imperial parking audit department relevant to this research paper. Particularly, 2012 audit findings about theft will be used. It will also cover external literatures regarding employee theft, benefit of security cameras and criminal activities at parking garages. This research paper discusses the following points: Employee theft at parking lots, Importance of parking lot security cameras, How to prevent employee theft, and Cost effective surveillance camera systems. Imperial parking would benefit from this research paper. Preventing theft, assaults, vandalism, loitering, and accidents are among others that Imperial parking would benefit

I am always scared that my manager is going to look at the cameras after every shift and she would find a moment in which I was not working to my fullest potential, and would reprimand me. I also feel like surveillance systems can be used as a defense for the worker whenever they believe that or accuse a customer for shoplifting. All the worker would have to do is quickly go back and review the cameras before making their statement. If a customer feels that they are being harassed or discriminated by a worker, all the customer would have to do is make a request for the manager to review the surveillance tapes and then the customer’s claim will either be justified and taken into consideration, or it will be discarded. Cameras mounted on street signs can log cars by license plate number, scan facial characteristics, and take notes of vehicles repeatedly circling or driving above or below the speed limit. About two summers ago, my friends and I took a day-trip down to Washing D.C. I decided to drive down there since my car was the safest and out of all of the other cars, my car had the most gas in it. While we were down there, I accidentally ran a red

Body cameras come in all shapes and sizes. There are many commercial businesses in the United States that already use body cameras for private industry work. According to Jay Stanley a body camera are, “small, pager-sized cameras that clip on to an officer’s uniform or sunglasses or are worn as a headset, and record audio and video of the officer’s interactions with the public” (Stanley).

The cameras are tiny portable devices, about the size and length of a cigarette stick, which can be easily mounted on sunglasses, clipped to hats or helmets, or attached to uniform collars or lapels. (TeenInk, 2017) The base of the recording device is wired and attached to the officer’s uniform and sits concealed in a pocket. It can record high-quality video even in low lighting conditions such as at night or a dark vehicle interior, and also provides an interface for the officer’s two-way radio. The objective of body cameras is to deliver an accurate record of officer engagements for complete situational awareness and tamper proof digital evidence.

First, police body cameras provide reliable and accurate accounts of crime and other situations. A

While some cameras have the ability to start recording as soon as a dangerous or out-of-hand conversation beings, other cameras won’t be able to activate so fast. A police officer, or a person may have an injury, or do something that’s not allowed, and the camera won’t be able to record all that’s happening since it wasn’t so easily activated. Other features include, “the capability to turn off audio while still recording video” while others don’t, which can make the footage caught by the camera unreliable since it won’t include the conversation and how a situation could have easily escalated quickly (Bolton). Another big worry with the use of body cameras is the clarity of the footage that’s

If we have police officers wear body cameras then we should feel a bit more safe when trusting police officers. police officers should also be able to check the security cameras just so that they wont feel like we lost all trust in them. According to "The Right Body Camera Policy""Exposure to the video footage will almost certainly enable them to provide richer and more accurate accounts of the incidents''''Psychologist have demonstrated that distrust sets in motion a dynamic that

Security cameras can be spotted in many places including stores, airports, gas stations, and school buildings. All of the surveillance equipment

Recently with Target and General Motors is having to deal with the public opinion of doubt in part due to security risks and quality of product. Target has had a well-publicized security breach where customers sensitive information was made available. This obviously will have a negative effect on consumer confidence. It goes without saying in today’s market place and number of choices a person has to purchase a product to include E-commerce, network security is a must. Online market places advertise the use of third party secure payment with trusted names such as PayPal. With a brick and mortar store front, it is assumed or not even considered to be a risk by some. Target has stayed somewhat silent, it seems they are just

As stated prior; although I did previously, I don't provide security for residential clients nor do I sell any security components. The contact information was simply for anyone who wanted to reach out to a security professional (of which I am) for any help or tips due to several posts on break ins. I've had a good amount of folks from the forum text and message me asking for help with their particular security situation; I was glad to help at no charge. This is exactly what this page was meant for; watching out for one another in the Folsom community. Not everything's a sales pitch, political opinion, shameless plug or anything else beside good old fashion help. Judging by the responses to the post, I'd say more folks appreciated the outreach

As global security continues to grow exponentially in response to threats of cyber terrorism, the field of computer security continues to proliferate into many adjacent socioeconomic and technologically-based areas of society. Gartner Group, a leading market research in the enterprise IT industry, has stated that the worldwide market for security software will reach $21B in 2011, rising to $15.8B in 2015 (Karjalainen, Siponen, 2011). This rapid growth of computer security is also driving the development of entirely new patents in the areas of cryptography, enterprise security management strategies, and extensive support for more advanced programming features for securing enterprise networks (Albrechtsen, 2007). The pace of development in this market is accelerating as the sophistication and variety of threats continues to also exponentially escalate (Liang, Xue, 2010).
