With security faced with change, it’s amazing to look at how man guarding (the use of traditional human security) has changed. Elevated from an isolated service, current manned guarding services are enhanced by technology and through specialized <\/span>security training services<\/b><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Furthermore, the threats faced by governments and organizations in both the public and private sectors have become increasingly complicated since 2019 (cyber breaches, breaches of critical infrastructure, the rise of domestic extremism, etc.), and there is an increased demand for <\/span>total security solutions<\/b> that integrate human capital with technology.\u00a0 In this blog, we will consider how man guarding has been impacted by innovation, and how organizations can use these trends to better deliver<\/span> total security solutions<\/b><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Evolution of Man Guarding<\/b><\/h2>\n

Historically, man guarding made use of trained personnel to protect property, people, and assets. These guards were trained in observation, deterrence and a little emergency response. However, in the current high-threat environment, it simply won\u2019t cut it.<\/span><\/p>\n

Modern threats have evolved into multidimensional threats. Cyber-physical attacks against critical infrastructure or multi-facility coordinated breaches, for example, security threats, are better managed when they can be discussed and planned for in a more sophisticated way. This is why man guarding is making a more flexible transition into a tech-augmented practice.<\/span><\/p>\n

Security consultancy services in India and around the world are increasingly combining a hybrid service model within their consultancy, which looks to pair human intuition and sense with a technological backbone. This has ushered in an era of integrated security systems.<\/span><\/p>\n

Technology in Man Guarding: Game Changers<\/b><\/h3>\n

Here’s a list of some of the key technologies that are transforming man guarding:<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Artificial Intelligence (AI) & Machine Learning<\/span><\/h4>\n

AI surveillance has gone one step further. Imaging is analyzed and flagged for suspicious activity in real-time by an AI system. Guards can be alerted in an instant to investigate, which improves response time and efficiency, as they no longer need to stare at screens.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Drones & Robotics<\/span><\/h4>\n

Drones can be used to monitor and inspect an entire campus or a hazardous area because they are equipped with thermal imaging and other sensors to carry out the task. Patrol robots can perform 24\/7, 360-degree surveillance of indoor spaces.<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Biometric Access Control<\/span><\/h4>\n

Biometric access control replaces both physical and digital security checks and ensures that only authorized people can access sensitive and secure areas. This technology has ensured that a guard only monitors the access control system instead of having to physically check the identity against the ID.<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Wearable Technology<\/span><\/h4>\n

Guards can wear helmets or vests equipped with body cameras or GPS trackers to ensure the safety, accountability, and security of staff. Supervisors can see where staff are in real-time and can also monitor vital signs if it should arise that an emergency becomes a medical situation.<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Mobile Apps & Command Centres<\/span><\/h4>\n

Mobile apps allow guards to share an incident report, upload photos or evidence, or receive instructions from an on-site or off-site command centre. Command centres integrate with the guard’s mobile app and coordinate operational responses smartly.<\/span><\/p>\n

Human Element: Still Irreplaceable<\/b><\/h3>\n

Even with technology creeping into different sectors of our lives, humans will always have their place in the world. Human beings can assess and evaluate patterns and situations while staying remorseful, discreet, and ethical. These abilities are known and practised when the time comes for people to make decisions under duress or in disaster situations.<\/span><\/p>\n

Security guards with training are not just security enforcers; they are also brand ambassadors, customer service agents, and crisis managers. Security guards possess the ability to assess circumstances, de-escalate situations, and build trust that is much needed in crises and decision making, especially in the current pandemic situation. As measurement and implementation of measurements become technical, machines will never take the place of a person seeing those tangible impacts in real time.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is where <\/span>security training services<\/b> come into play an enormous role. Professional training for security personnel is becoming less about physical fitness and compliance with protocol and much more about:<\/span><\/p>\n
