Today’s corporate security
organization is continually tasked with demonstrating value to the enterprise. Tools required
to deliver an integrated, holistic suite of security solutions is achievable with a master
plan. Learn how Master Planning becomes a
catalyst to define a vision for security which
touches all aspects of a service delivery including technology, IT integration command and
control and communication with key stakeholders and employees. The plan will also
identify critical areas where the security function can be repositioned as a core business
function that can contribute to the bottom
line. The Master Planning process enables executives tasked with the protection of people,
assets and reputation to gain valuable exposures to tools and techniques to increase the
value and integrity of their department to meet
“C” Suite demands.

reetings Arizona Security Professionals,
As I write this editorial I am staring at the
summons I just received to appear for jury duty in
Arizona District Federal Court next month. I wonder if they really want my participation in a criminal case or even more likely a civil case before the
court. Hopefully they will see the immense need
there is for me to be present for the 2014 Southwest Security Conference we are sponsoring on
Friday, May 2nd at the Sheraton Crescent Hotel
and excuse me from service. There is information
later in the newsletter on the conference and I
hope to see everyone there.
The chapter received very good news last month
as we were selected 2013 winner of Newsletter of
the Year and took Honorable Mention for both the
I.B. Hale Award and Website of the Year, all in Region 6. Our chief nemeses for the awards in our
region remains the Mexico City Chapter. The regions are grouped by ASIS members assigned to
each chapter, not necessarily paid chapter members. The Mexico City Chapter is an up and coming chapter and we will have to be on our game to
beat them out. Congratulations to the committee
chairmen responsible for each of the awards. The
chairmen are identified later in the newsletter
along with a short story on each award.
Please join us on Wednesday, April 16th for our
monthly luncheon at the Sheraton Crescent Hotel. Networking runs from 11:00 am thru the beginning of the meeting, usually 11:40 or so. The
speaker this month will be David Gibbs, CPP,
Managing Director of Guidepost Solutions. David’s presentation is entitled Holistic Security
Master Planning, a Journey to an Integrated
Plan. David will discuss how an integrated Security plan will lead to more balanced and encompassing Security initiatives. He will also discuss

his experiences serving of several ASIS Councils
and working groups over the years. Additional information on David’s presentation is available later
in the newsletter.
We are getting closer and closer to ASIS 2014 in
Atlanta, GA, running from September 29th
through October 3rd.
More than 20,000 of your Security peers will be
attending the world’s most influential security
event. Keynote speakers include former Utah Governor Jon Huntsman, Jr. on Tuesday, September
30th and retired General Colin L. Powell on
Wednesday, October 1st. The Phoenix Chapter is
always well represented so start making your
plans now.
I hope to see you on April 16th.

Are You Ready for the Last Windows XP
Patch?
Tomorrow represents a milestone for many PC and
Exchange administrators. It's the long-dreaded
day when Microsoft will issue its last patch for
Windows XP, Exchange 2003 and Office 2003
(which, of course, includes Outlook). It's also an
important day because Microsoft will also issue
the Windows 8.1 Update.
As reported in this month's Redmond magazine
cover story, 23 percent of polled readers will keep
their Windows XP-based systems running indefinitely. Only 28 percent of you have completed your
migrations or have no Windows XP-based machines left. Even though tomorrow is the end for
Windows XP, barring any unexpected events, the
day will likely come and go without incident -though you won't be able to avoid hearing about it
if you're watching the evening news or listening to
the radio.
Nevertheless, Windows XP systems will be around
for the foreseeable future as they slowly fade over
time. Until then, if you're just using Windows XP
for PC apps and are not connecting to the Internet,
you shouldn't have any problems.

Finding the Win-Win with Your Security
Service Provider
5 Questions for Hospital Security
Personnel
For many higher education (HED) safety and security senior managers, the selection of a security service provider is bound to take place once, or several
times throughout their career. With high organizational and personal implications at stake, the correct selection from the endless list of providers can
become a daunting and challenging task.
Earlier this year, there were incidents in Massachusetts and Rhode Island that underscored the
need for increased hospital security.
As a hospital administrator, security director or
other professional, do you expect that a standoff
with police will be occurring on your next
shift? Probably not. But the folks at a hospital in
West Springfield, MA experienced a frightening ordeal in February of this year. Read more:
http://wwlp.com/2014/02/18/shooting-victim-atbaystate-medical-center/
The following selection criteria can assist higher education senior security managers to change the security service provider procurement process from an
economical focused transaction to a win-win decision with direct ties to broader institutional goals
and objectives.
1. Service standardization and ongoing supervision
The selected service provider should have the ability
to standardize and proactively enforce its services
standards throughout the organization via post orders, operational procedures, regional supervision
etc

Jon Huntsman, Jr., to Keynote ASIS
2014 in Atlanta
Former Utah Governor Also Served Under Four U.S. Presidents
Jon Huntsman, Jr., governor of Utah (2005-2009)
and a candidate for the 2012 Republican Presidential nomination, will be a keynote speaker at the
ASIS International 60th Annual Seminar and Exhibits (ASIS 2014) on Tuesday, Sept. 30, 2014 at
the Georgia World Congress Center, in Atlanta, Ga.
More than 20,000 global security professionals from
both the operational and cyber security disciplines
are anticipated to attend this year’s event, which
will be held Sept. 29–Oct 2. On the agenda—in addition to the keynote addresses—will be a comprehensive education program, networking events, and
an exhibit floor that features a wide range of security products and services.
Huntsman served under four U.S. presidents in
many critical roles around the world, among them
ambassador to Singapore and most recently U.S.
ambassador to China. The keynote address is open
to all attendees.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Science and Technology Directorate and ASIS International (ASIS), the leading organization for security
professionals worldwide, signed a Memorandum of
Understanding (MOU) at the ASIS headquarters in
Alexandria, Va., on Thursday, March 6, 2014. The
agreement stipulates how DHS will work in partnership with ASIS to communicate the agency’s capability gaps, technology requirements, and outreach
opportunities to its vendor and member communities in an effort to provide state of the art technological capabilities to its operating components and the
nation’s first responders.
"As facilitator of the ASIS International Annual
Seminar and Exhibits, one of the world’s largest exhibitions dedicated to security technologies and
products, ASIS is in an advantageous position to
serve as a conduit between DHS and more than 700
security industry manufacturers,” stated Richard E.
Widup, Jr., CPP, ASIS president. “Our expansive
exhibitor community plus our substantial membership body, make ASIS ideally-suited to support and
expand the scope of DHS awareness into the private
sector.”
In the coming months, DHS will work with ASIS to
actively communicate its public outreach activities
using a broad spectrum of forums such as speaking
engagements, technology demonstrations, social
media platforms, emails, and webinars. These venues will be utilized to provide detailed information
on DHS priorities, operations, and opportunities for
potential partnership.
Representatives of DHS will be onsite to meet faceto-face with leading security technology innovators
at the ASIS International 60th Annual Seminar and
Exhibits, Sept. 29-Oct.2, in Atlanta, Ga. at the
Georgia World Congress Center.
“From his global expertise in trade to his economic
successes in Utah, Huntsman has a wealth of relevant insight to share with the security industry,”
said ASIS President Richard E. Widup, Jr., CPP. “It
is truly an honor to welcome him to ASIS 2014.”
Huntsman has been widely praised for his business

2013 I.B. Hale Chapter
of the Year Award
2013 ASIS Newsletter of 2013 ASIS Website of
the Year Award
the Year Award
The IB Hale
Award was
established
in 1972 to
honor former
ASIS President and
Chairman of
the Board
I.B. Hale.
The Phoenix Chapter has been
selected as the Newsletter of
the Year in Group 6 for
2013. Newsletter Committee
Chairman John Hamilton, CPP
continued the great tradition of
the chapter as we repeated our
victory from 2012. The newsletter chair is a very difficult
job that John has simply excelled at. He has pushed us
into more digital content in
2013, allowing additional content to broaden the newsletter’s
appeal. We are at an all-time
high in advertising interest
which in and of itself is a tells
you something about the professional look and appeal of the
newsletter.
The award recognizes the most
outstanding chapters in each
ASIS region. Everything a chapter undertakes from monthly
meetings to charity efforts to educational offerings is considered
in the I.B. Hale submission.
The Phoenix Chapter has been
named Honorable Mention winner in Group 6 for 2013. This
follows our first place finish in
2012. The 2013 winner for
Group 6 was Mexico City and we
will strive to knock them off
their pedestal to retake the honor in 2014.
I.B. Hale Committee Chair Jeff
Varda, CPP worked tirelessly on
our 2013 submission and is
hard at his 2014 submission so
that the chapter receives the
recognition it so richly deserves. Jeff’s job is to take all
the information he can glean
regarding the chapter’s efforts
and condense it into a 3 inch
binder for the chapter’s submission. While some of the entries
remain constant from year to
year do not assume he has seen
everything. If you have given a
presentation or made media
contact in your security capacity
let Jeff know so he can find a
spot for it in our submission.
Great job Jeff!
All this being said John is always open to additional content so whether you are a committee chairperson or not, if
you see a story you believe is of
interest to the chapter send it
over to John and he will find a
place for it. The chapter beat
out Mexico City for the award.
The Phoenix Chapter has been
named Honorable Mention winner
for Website of the Year for
2013. Website Committee Chairman Jerry Higginson, CPP, PCI
has taken the website and really
put his own stamp on the site.
Each individual committee has a
separate tab where the chairperson can add content specific to its
committee and keep he chapter
updated on their initiatives. The
website has a member only section where content can be viewed
exclusively to Phoenix Chapter
members.
Jerry has imbedded links
throughout the website to take
readers to the ASIS International
Website so you can effortlessly
move from one site to another to
garner the most up to date information available. Mexico City
was again our chief foil and took
the top slot for Group 6, something Jerry has sworn will not
happen in 2014.
Thanks for all your hard work
Jerry!
Congratulations John!
Security Practices in a High Rise Environment
MODERN HIGH RISE SECURITY IN A POST-9/11
WORLD
High rise security’s defining moment happened when the 9/11
terrorists destroyed New York’s Twin Towers. The disaster forced a
redefinition of the strategic fundamentals used to protect commercial and residential high rises.
A high rise is exposed to all the normal security risks of a
street-level structure including crime, vandalism, and disturbances. But, the uniqueness of its physical stature calls for a different protection approach. Tall buildings house a high population
in a concentrated area. Movement is restricted to elevators and
stairwells. Limited entrances and exits cause another safety concern. security plan tackles challenges literally from the ground up.

Window Security Film 101
Schools, university campus police, security personnel, emergency management officials and facility
managers have focused their attention on dozens of
new security initiatives, from video surveillance to
making door security measures more robust. There
is one often overlooked measure, however, that’s
starting to get more attention. It’s virtually invisible, is relatively quick and inexpensive to install,
and yet works round the clock to improve the security of doors and windows. It is safety and security
window films.
Today’s products play an important role in deterring crime. Few security measures can fully stop a
determined intruder, but when the correct security
window film is selected and properly installed, it
can delay a perpetrator long enough to help foil
their plans or give those inside precious time to find
a way to remain safe.
What Is Window Film?
Window film is a polyester-based product and often
involves multiple layers laminated together for
strength. It utilizes an aggressive pressure sensitive
mounting adhesive.
