Yesterday, I had one of those tough conversations with a Security Systems Technician going through the interview process for a job he REALLY wanted. The company chose another candidate with similar experience, the same salary expectations, but one key difference—the other candidate had a Low Voltage License, and my technician didn’t. I’ve had this conversation far too often. Many techs go years without getting their Low Voltage license because their employers didn’t require it. But when they look to move forward in their career, this becomes a roadblock. So here’s my advice to all the security systems and fire alarm techs out there: GET YOUR LICENSE. It can be the game-changer that sets you apart. 💰 Earn More – Licensed techs get the better paychecks, hands down. More credibility = more $$$. 🛠️ More Responsibility, More Respect – A license shows you’re serious about your craft. It’s a badge of expertise and professionalism. Don’t let a missed opportunity be the reminder. Get licensed, stay competitive, and level up your career!

Unpopular Opinion: Argumentative staff cannot be customer-facing I recall talking with someone who was argumentative, rude and short, and thinking to myself, "This person is highly skilled but I would never put them in front of a customer unless their attitude changed significantly". There are some career paths where argumentative folks can be kept on the back-end, do great work for the customer, but never interact with the customer. If a technician is in that role, when their scale tips more towards argumentative than skilled, they are on thin ice. With a customer, I am not trying to imply that a helpdesk staff cannot offer a rebuttal, but it has to be done in a friendly way. As a customer myself, when a technician argues with me, immediately I become disengaged. Other people I know will start to argue back if a technician argues, oftentimes something that escalates quickly. Sometimes people even ask to speak to a supervisor in this situation. Overall, it does not end well. A technician who is customer-facing needs to understand that they serve at the pleasure of the customer, and act accordingly.

What is corporate campus security? And how can you benefit from a good program? We define corporate campus security as the measure and practice of ensuring the safety and protection of a corporate entity’s physical premises; including the people who work and operate within this defined area. In today's climate, large businesses face heightened risks of attack in a variety of ways and from many sources. These threats extend beyond physical harm to employees and executives, it also encompasses property, products, and intellectual assets. Corporate campus security involves a layered combination of highly trained security personnel, reliable surveillance systems, access control systems, emergency response protocols, and other security measures. All designed to prevent unauthorized access to the property and its assets. Ask us about how our Guardforceplus.com can help you mitigate campus risks and liabilities. Our agents come in uniform amd plain clothes if needed in order to blend in. Contact [email protected] for more info.

Lots of organizations ask my team for help with policies. But their current policies blanket the entire company and often carry stiff penalties for noncompliance (including termination). How can we govern requirements without creating brittle, easily violated policies? We create standards and work with clients to apply them to the correct unit of management (company-wide, department-wide, within the enclave, etc.). 🟦 Personnel screening (criminal background checks, I-9 verification) are a good idea for the whole company. Let's write a screening standard that applies to all employees and name HR and hiring managers as the responsible party. 🟪 Only some facilities, departments, and related business processes handle paper media containing sensitive information. Let's include operations security standards for print media in something more readily accessible to everyday employees (employee handbooks, shift briefings, refresher training). 🟨 Everyday employees have no business reading (or trying to satisfy) our standards for FIPS validated encryption within the CUI enclave. Let's assign those standards to a system specification and make sure IT teams meet it. This style of converting requirements to standards, and allocating standards to the correct management, operations, or system scope usually reveals which standards are important enough to be included in company policies.

Nine Reasons Why Physical Guarding Is Here To Stay In a world where technology is seen as a superior alternative to many traditional staffed positions, physical security guarding still stands firm. Human Judgment - Security guards can assess situations and make decisions based on context, nuance, and intuition, which technology can't replicate. 1. Guards can respond to unexpected situations and adapt to changing circumstances. They can manage crisis situations, such as evacuations or lockdowns. 2. Deterrence - Physical presence can deter potential threats and prevent incidents. 3. Customer Interaction - Guards can assist visitors, answer questions, and provide customer service. 4. Emergency Response - Guards can immediately respond to and assess medical emergencies, fires, and other incidents. 5. Situational Awareness - Guards can observe and report suspicious behaviour or potential security breaches. 6. Access Control - Guards can verify identities, check credentials, and control access to restricted areas. 7. Technology Support: Guards can troubleshoot and support security technology when needed. 8. Accountability: Guards can provide testimony and evidence in case of security incidents or investigations. 9. Physical security guards offer a unique combination of skills, judgment, and human interaction that complements technology's role in security, making them an essential component of a comprehensive security strategy.

A must read ! Mythical misconception about Computer and Network Technicians as a Profession One common misconception people have about computer and network technicians is that they only deal with hardware and software issues. While troubleshooting technical problems is indeed a significant part of the job as well, the role extends far beyond mere "fixing." In its actuality, computer and network technicians are also skilled problem-solvers, communicators, and educators. These professionals often find themselves translating complex technical jargon into understandable language for clients and colleagues who may not have a technical background. Additionally, they play a vital role in assessing technology needs, recommending solutions, and implementing strategies to optimize systems for efficiency and security. Another misconception is that computer and network technicians work in isolation. In fact, experience has shown, that, collaboration is also a key to be successful in this field. Technicians frequently work alongside other IT professionals, such as system administrators, cybersecurity specialists, and software developers, to ensure seamless integration and functionality across various platforms and networks. Furthermore, there's a misconception that computer and network technicians only work with businesses or large organizations. While many do, technicians also serve individuals and small businesses, providing essential support for home networks, personal devices, and small-scale IT infrastructure. Overall, the role of a computer and network technician encompasses a diverse set of skills and responsibilities beyond the traditional perception of simply fixing computers. They are integral members of the technology ecosystem, driving innovation, supporting users, and ensuring the smooth operation of digital systems in various contexts.

💥 Real Talk: Hiring a Security Company? Here’s What You NEED to Know 💥 Hiring a security company is about making a strategic investment that could make or break your business’s safety. Here’s the deal: 🛑 Stop looking at price tags alone. You’re not buying a product; you’re buying peace of mind. ✅ Vet their experience. If they haven’t dealt with your industry’s specific challenges, they’re not ready for you. You want pros who’ve been in the trenches and know how to handle your unique risks. 💪 Evaluate their training. A security guard is only as good as their last training session. You need a team that’s constantly leveling up, staying sharp, and ready to act when it counts. 💻Technology is non-negotiable. If they’re not integrating advanced tech—like real-time monitoring, smart surveillance, and access control—they’re stuck in the past. 📊 Demand transparency. Regular reports, clear communication, and accountability are the bare minimum. If you’re not getting updates, you’re in the dark. Here’s the bottom line: Hiring a security company isn’t just another line item on your budget. It’s a critical decision that impacts your people, property, and peace of mind. Don’t cut corners—get the best because your security deserves nothing less. Are you hiring the right security partner or just checking a box? Stay vigilant, Adam
