Event Security Related FAQ's

The safety of a venue doesn’t end at the front doors or the site boundary, vigilance is needed for a wider footprint of the area. Good venues will recognise this and have robust plans in place.
It is important that the venue and blue light services work closely together and that emergency services are well informed and familiar with the layout and specifics of the building and immediate area.
Yes, Security isn’t just about monitoring, checks and surveillance behind the scenes, a major part is engaging with fans during ingress, developing a rapport and treating people with dignity and respect, while earning their respect in return. The venues best communicators should be on the front line, having a visible presence and talking to people at the entry points.
Many venues have technology in place for security checks of bags and individuals, similar to technology used at airport security. Other venues do manual bag checks and pat down individuals.
Alcohol related incidents are common at venues licensed to serve alcohol so putting a policy in place is wise. Measures often include limiting the amount of drinks purchased in a single transaction, ID checks and only serving alcohol in certain areas to reduce harm and incidents.

Self Defence Related FAQ's

Self-defense is the fundamental human right that allows for the use of physical force to protect oneself from unlawful injury by another. Many different situations can fall under the umbrella of self-defense, and not every violent or potentially violent encounter is, or needs to be, solved with a weapon. While self-defense is a basic human right, it’s crucial to know the law or laws that govern when someone is legally justified in defending themselves that are spelled out in self-defense laws. The law applies whether your defense plan involves using firearms, edged weapons, martial arts, or some other means of self-defense as a means of defense against an immediate, credible threat.
Self-defense is any level of physical force that you use in defense from a threat (to prevent force from being used against you). To make a successful claim of self-defense, several criteria must be met.

Generally asked questions

Most security systems give you the option of self-monitoring or professional monitoring, and you should know your options and the associated costs before you sign a contract. Even self-monitoring systems sometimes charge a small monthly or annual fee. Professional monitoring is more expensive and requires a monthly fee, but you get 24/7 monitoring — the extra cost could be worth the peace of mind you receive.
Older systems used the home telephone line. The old copper-based telephone network was quite reliable and nearly always worked, even during power failures. The major weakness was that it was often easy for a burglar to find the telephone line running into a home and cut it, disabling the phone and the alarm.

Except for older systems that still use the copper-based telephone network, there are two primary ways a system communicates with the monitoring station: a cellular communications network or your home’s Wi-Fi system, which relies on your internet connection.
If you pay for professional monitoring, you’re counting on a team of responders who are available 24/7. When a sensor goes off, you want to know how long the company will take to send you a notification or alert emergency services. Ideally, this is done in less than a minute — in situations like these, every second counts. If the company can’t guarantee this response time, you may want to look elsewhere.
Even the best equipment needs maintenance at some point, and you need to know whose responsibility that is when it happens. Make sure you ask what kind of warranty the equipment is under and what your costs will be after the warranty period is over.

Note that there might be different warranties given by the equipment manufacturer and the company you buy the equipment from. It’s also worth asking how long you’ll have to wait before a technician addresses a warranty concern. This should typically be done within a day or two of the malfunction.
The best alarm system is worthless if it doesn’t work when you need it. That means it needs to have backup power and a reliable method of communicating with the monitoring center.

Nearly all alarm systems today have battery backups that let them work even during a power failure. It’s important to know how long the system will run on battery power and how often the batteries need to be replaced. Most systems issue an alert when the battery is nearing the end of its life.
