I’m currently in my thirteenth year as security manager and a lot has changed over that time in event security management. Not only do annual events grow and evolve on an operational level, but so too do the external threats and associated risks. Part of responding to an event’s growing profile includes updating the security plans every year to ensure that the security measures in place are informed by a current threat and risks assessment and that they can appropriately mitigate against the numerous threats that exist, including opportunistic criminals, terrorism and even reputation damage.
