We've been thinking about
this topic for a while - how
to add value to doing
security; and even if you
succeed, how do you
measure that you are doing
it, so as to convince the
buyer or customer you're
doing well? There are ways.
We return to a series
about jobs in industry
sector; starting with oil
and gas. Don't forget
your passport.
68 book reviews
This month our typically varied
books reviewed are about
disasters, a design guide to
access control, and a cop's
memoir of Kosovo and Iraq.

closes for 2017 in its regular place: London.

From down the road is Slough
Borough Council Security
Manager Peter Webster; while
not so local is the Irish risk

Commissioner Tony Porter,
who since we last
interviewed him earlier this
year has brought out a
strategy, with plenty to
offer about doing
surveillance right, whether
you're a user, installer of
the kit, or law enforcer
using the evidence.
Anixter, Seagate, Hanwha Techwin and Hikvision
will also give updates. You are as ever welcome to
turn up on the day, but we ask that you register
beforehand just to help us gauge the numbers for
catering. Exhibition doors open at 8.30am, the
conference runs from 9.30am until (free hot buffet)
lunch. You can register online or email organiser
