Episode 26 of the Security Matters Podcast features exclusive interviews with three industry practitioners. First of all, Brian hears from Peter French MBE (managing director of security sector recruitment specialist SSR Personnel), who first appeared as our guest on Episode 12. Another in-depth discussion involves Peter – a Past-Master of The Worshipful Company of Security Professionals and a Certified Protection Professional – focusing on several key issues of the day, among them skills development for front line security practitioners, how the profession of security is being viewed at the present time, current priorities for Chief Security Officers and the impact of Artificial Intelligence across the sector.
Further, Brian chats with Mark Horton (vice-president at Bandweaver, the perimeter security systems developer). Mark turns his attentions towards the application of fiber optic technology for security projects. There’s a concentration on distributed acoustic sensing and a discussion around cost and maintenance regimes. In addition, Mark outlines those sectors in which the demand for perimeter intrusion detection systems is rising and those regions where Bandweaver itself is gaining traction for its solutions.
Our third guest on this edition of the Security Matters Podcast is David Dunnagan, managing director for Chubb Fire and Security in the UK and Ireland. On this occasion, David answers some core questions on the subject of smart buildings and the various technologies underpinning them with a particular reference to security regimes.
In addition, there’s a detailed round-up of several major news stories from the security world. We report on Nick Ross CBE being made president of the British Security Industry Association, the Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure Act (which comes into force next April), the appointment of Anne Keast-Butler to succeed Sir Jeremy Fleming as director of GCHQ and the publication of the Business Continuity Institute’s Operational Resilience Report 2023. There’s also news of Gate Safe’s Gate Safety by Design initiative and significant contract wins for G4S Secure Solutions UK and Corps Security.
