Reviews

Tufano does an outstanding job of challenging long lasting assumptions about corporate security, and offers logical, practical considerations for the role of security professionals in organizations. As a 31 year law enforcement officer, I find his argument for placing security leaders in positions of real influence within the corporate hierarchy compelling and essential to creating a safe workplace. Rob Firmes Law Enforcement Executive In this important text, Andrew Tufano captures the essence and practical security processes through his experience and training of security professionals in all industries. His ability to convey the message of professionalism to frontline and leadership practitioners is enlightening and effective. In my thirty years of experience within the security profession, I find that this book stands among the best. Darren Morgan Healthcare Security Administrator
