Corporate security is a state of mind. To be effective, it cannot be just a department or cost center. Industrial espionage, the misuse of corporate resources, and workplace violence cost American companies in excess of $45 billion annually. In the most effectual cases of successful corporate security models, the concept is instilled in the mindset of employees from the application process, through hiring, orientation, and then through ongoing training over course of their career. Policies and procedures are put in place for good cause; however their enforcement can be a rigorous practice.
The investment in a comprehensive corporate security program is just that, an investment. It is to hedge against the potential for losses resulting from fraud, violence and waste.
