Comprehensive Security Plan

Paper Summary:

This paper discusses a comprehensive approach for effective personal protection in the event of natural disaster, terrorism, and civil or political unrest. The author explains the basic tactical requirements for ensuring communications in the event of an emergency, and describes possible scenarios and strategies depending on the source of the threat. The paper concludes that the objective of protection agents, whatever the threat, is to incorporate all available information required to implement pre-planned strategic responses designed to allocate resources optimally, and to identify the travel route (and mode) that represents the best available option for the expedited transport of protectees from relative danger to relative safety in the shortest time possible.

From the Paper:

"Communications are essential to personal safety concerns at all times, but even more so immediately prior to, during, and immediately after serious safety threats materialize, regardless of their particular origin. The basic technological requirements for personal protection include an independent system that implements appropriately advanced signal scrambling to ensure imperviousness to unauthorized interception capable of compromising sensitive information. In that regard, more sophisticated threats to high-value targets may require counterintelligence electronic spectrum surveillance and offensive signal jamming technology such as routinely employed by military security details and the U.S. Secret Service, domestically."
