Laboratories pose unique security challenges. Wide-ranging requirements include protecting intellectual property, safeguarding research data, defending experiments in progress from disruption, protecting laboratory workers, and guarding against acts of terrorism and demonstration concerns.
The speaker will discuss several laboratory security requirements, first responder resources, and communication/notification protocol. Topics covered will include:
- Security plan/security leadership. Who is in charge of security?
- Perimeter surveillance/recording and intelligent video/video analytics
- Building access control
- Acts of terrorism
- Guards/patrols
- Resources and public/private engagements

The speaker will then begin a wide ranging discussion with other session speakers and audience members on this important topic.
