According to Ces Company, PENCO SmartLocker™ utilizes computerized identification technology to grant or restrict access to lockers in a manner consistent with the operational policies of owners and administrators of the lockers. The system can be designed to have lockers assigned to individuals on a permanent or temporary basis. Lockers are networked via computer to a central administrative office, where usage can be monitored and access controlled. The SmartLocker™ system is custom designed to meet the individual needs of the owner or organization Locker Operation Lockers are opened by an electronic door latching system. There are no moving latch channel parts to maintain and the doors are free from protruding handles or padlock hasps. …show more content…
Individual locations, or groups of lockers, can be opened for inspections, cleaning or maintenance. In the event of forced entry, a “locker alarm” is registered on the activity log, showing the date and time. All the information in the locker administration program is password protected. Managers or administrators can choose who has access to locker information and which task each user can perform.

Captain Earl Davis of the County Police Department is in charge of the county jail. Davis said that the jail has an elaborate locked door system. When one door in a hallway of two or more doors is opened, all of the other doors are locked until the open door is shut. The system, Davis said, is to prevent any prisoner from escaping. Each door is opened by a person in an operating room, and each officer who enters through a door must receive clearance from that operator.
The servers can be placed on a server rack which will hold the main network devices such as switches, routers and the modem as well as the firewall and the Intrusion Detection System. This room should have restricted access and only authorized personnel must have access to it, by using sophisticated keycard systems and even having additional security procedures such as biometrical readers etc. It was also proposed to get rid of Motorola SB3100 and Net Gear MR814 to increase the overall security with more advanced networking devices to provide new security features such as VLANs, access lists, and secure protocols.
“The biggest drawback to a school locker search is the lack of trust students may feel as a result of actions they see as an invasion of privacy,” is what Dennis Hartman had to say on the matter. For instance, if a student had harmful things in their locker, it’d be easier to find and confiscate them. This would prevent a potentially dangerous situation, and the student would face proper consequences. Whilst I agree that locker searches could definitely potentially keep schools safer, I still believe that there are better ways to enforce safety than going through a student’s possessions, which could be mentally damaging.
Forensics investigations that require the analyzation and processing of digital evidence can be influenced both positively and negatively by a number of outside sources. In this paper, we will explore how physical security plays a role in forensics investigations activities. We will start by examining how physical and environmental security might impact the forensics investigation process. Next, we will discuss the role that physical and logical security zones play in supporting effective forensics activities. We will illustrate how centralized and decentralized physical and environmental security affects the forensics professional’s approach toward the investigation. Lastly, we will evaluate some potential areas of risk related to the physical security of our case study organization, Widget Factory, identified in Attachment 1.
The school locker is usually the only private space available to a student in the environment of the school. So it focuses many of the main issues involved in privacy of the students. The 4th Amendment of the US Constitution states “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses,papers,and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the person or things to be seized.”
Going to school, work, a public building, or a stadium event without feeling overly concerned is a feeling that cannot be valued. Our environment continues to be ever-changing and the Security field will continue to adapt and provide its service. A general education of the Physical Security field was provided so that the reader may have a greater understanding. The types of Security were addressed, as well as, multiple operational functions tied to the field.
Are curious about everyday objects and how they work. Your child may try turning knobs, pushing buttons, and opening drawers and cupboards. This is why it’s a good idea to put safety locks on doorknobs or cabinets you don’t want them getting in to so they can’t get too curious and discover something they shouldn’t.
On 5 October 2009, computer equipment from a network data closet was stolen from BCBST. The items stolen were 57 unencrypted hard drives which contained over 300,000 video recording and over one million audio recordings. According to Whitman & Mattord (2010), confidentiality, integrity, and availability makes up the C.I.A triangle which is the basis of Committee on National Security model for information security, an industrial standard, (Whitman & Mattord, 2010). Confidentiality can be a synonym for encryption but also means only the people with the correct permission can access the information. One of the major security issue is the hard drives were not encrypted. The hard drives should be encrypted to prevent people from reading the information the computer. Software can be purchased which will encrypt files on hard drive with such as Folder Lock, SensiGuard, Secure IT, and more. There are open source encrypting software which are free for use which could have been used. If the hard drives were not needed, the data should hav...
The purpose of this quantitative research case study was to investigate school safety and the effects of a newly implemented keyless entry system at a junior college located in the suburbs of Chicago, Illinois. This chapter will contain a review of the literature pertaining to school safety that includes the following components: recent history of school safety issues, prison effect of school safety plans, keyless entry systems, and vandalizing and theft.
On December 14, 2012, the second deadliest school shooting in United States occurred, which left parents, legislators , and administrators to debate whether lockdowns are enough to protect students. After this incident, people took a second look at the securities of their school to see if the doors and gates were locked during school hours. The Sandy Hook disaster has exposed multiple lacking in schools all over the nation, but has also raised some awareness in finding strategies to keep kids safe. Therefore, is Joy Christian School (JCS) safe? There are many efficient ways to improve security, although none may ever “perfect”. Putting up gates, and having a clear communication system could be just enough for saving lives in case of an emergency.
Implement physical security: - “Physical security protects people, data, equipment, systems, facilities and company assets” (Harris,
Well there are a lot of different options by which we can get a premises secured. However the following three options of surveillance are probably best for physical surveillance:

Based on an article by Fast Facts written by National Center for Statistics, “…93 percent of public schools reported that they controlled access to school buildings by locking or monitoring doors during school hours.” Though this number may seem like a lot, it does not make sure every student is safe. Based on this data, out of 100 schools there are still 7 schools that do not have this safety. This would allow for someone to walk in, armed with a weapon, and the school would not know who entered the building. Also, if the doors were not locked, like some schools across the country, anyone could walk in unrealized. From the same article, Fast Facts, National Center for Statistics also states that,”Other safety and security measures reported by public schools included the use of security cameras to monitor the school (75 percent)…” Similarity, this is the same as before. Outsiders or students could easily bring in a weapon into the school if the school was not monitored. This is sadly the case since 1 out of 4 schools do not have a camera system. Overall, many schools across the nation are lacking simple security measurements to keep schools
The human factor of physical security consists of the people who own the property being protected, the people who work at the property or those that visit the property/protected area, and the security personnel guarding the property.
