This book was written specifically to provide the facility manager with
virtually all information needed to build and manage an effective security
system for any type of facility.
Topics include facility layout, distances and separation, fencing, access
control, intrusion detection systems, pass key and key control systems, locks,
hasps, gates, etc.
Also explored are more sophisticated systems such as closed circuit TV,
microwave transmitters, lasers, lighting, clear zone, computer access control,
thumbprint and retinal scan access control, voice print analysis, and hand
geometry.
In addition, non-hardware aspects of security are examined, including security
clearances and background checks, guards, rounds, shift work, training, and
procedure development.
