Threats to national resources such as SANParks, Transnet rail network system, Eskom power network, correctional facilities and many other large complex operational environments continue to grow. The desired security response mechanisms and strategies require deeper insights into threat scenarios, the development of concepts of operation, the establishment of sustained capabilities to counter these threats as well as integrated technology solutions to serve as a force multiplier for these counter-threat capabilities. The panel discussion will focus on the lessons learnt from the integrated deployment of security technologies, personnel and processes in providing counter-threat capabilities. The panel will explore the security concepts of operations in large complex operational environments that will lead into better utilization of resources and better response to the security threats.
