When selecting a security practitioner - ask them how important this is

Any government, non-government entity or private sector is reliant on all the truthful information from the ground up especially from security.

It is the intelligent person that knows that they need knowledge to comprehend the intelligence.

The issue related to HUMINT (human intelligence) is that people could lie, hide or volunteer information for their own agenda.

Obviously, technologies related to COMINT, ELINT, TECINT, SIGINT, DATAINT is only as good the users that are SAINT (situationally aware 'intelligent').

Today we have laboratories that can check cctv, perimeter security or access control tech, so finding the appropriate and performance tested products is relatively easy to decide upon.

But, when it comes to incident, emergency or investigation management platforms - these are only as good as the users. When one does not insert all the relevant data, or unreliable data then the head of security is not generating the results of their investment. The key factor - is the way the decision-maker and team think that validates the success rate.

When the answer is not eloquently or clearly expressed - then consider the fact that you get what you pay for.

In today's threat climate - security is only as good as the relevant thinking team.
