Often, the group that tries to be all things to all people is going to fail. So, is the managed Security Service of the future going to be more about subcontracting and strategic partnerships? On this week’s show, we’re joined by Mark Ledlow and Patrick Kane to look at the way in which physical security/EP fits squarely in the managed security service of tomorrow. As we dig into this, we’ll be asking: How has corporate security modernized over the last two years? What new offerings are we seeing? Are we starting to see a greater appetite at a corporate level for protective intelligence over an executive protection program? In an integrated solution with cyber colleagues, could physical security become the eyes and ears on the ground for a joint Intel group? What vital skill are security managers searching for that protectors are missing from their resumes?
