Florida Church Security Tampa, Orlando and More

Posted on

ESS Global Corp offers professional “faith-based” Florida church security in Tampa and throughout Florida and the US.

Florida Church Security Tampa, Orlando and More

We are saddened by recent church violence events and our thoughts and prayers are with the families of the deceased.
Over 420 people have died in incidents involving deadly force at churches and other faith organizations in America since 1999, as detailed by noted church security expert Carl Chinn and reported in a 2013 issue of SBC LIFE, the journal of the Southern Baptist Convention Executive Committee. If you’ve followed the news the past two years, you know that number has risen dramatically.
The biggest trigger in church violence over the last 16 years is “Domestic Spillover”. This is when domestic relationship violence finds it’s way onto ministry property resulting in a deadly force incident. The second most common reason for church violence is “Random Acts” which describes the tragedy in Charleston, SC.
The SBC Life article recommended ways churches can protect themselves against violent intruders.

  • Perform a professional security analysis for activities throughout the week and at services.
  • Assess unmonitored entryways to the church on Sundays or during other activities including day care, Bible studies, and more where someone could enter and hide.
  • Consider hiring a security firm to provide armed security during all church events.

Carl Chinn also stated recently, “If you still have time to be on the security team after making sure your own house is in order, then you can look around your church to see if any friends or relatives of ‘Bozo Thug’ are around you. There are plenty of them in our society. Empty-eyed mindless little rats looking for an opportunity to get their name in the paper.”
Faith-based organizations must increase their awareness of, and preparation for, criminal hazards capable of compromising their primary ministry purpose.
8-2 Update
This post is barely a week old and the national news has reported two church bombings that seem to  be related http://essglobalcorp.com/ess/wq4l7  as well as a stabbing in a church in Maryland that has resulted in one death.  http://essglobalcorp.com/ess/7mn3w 
Are churches the new “soft target”?

Training – Choose Wisely

Posted on

I’m sure you are aware of the horror stories or maybe you have experienced them yourselves. The let down and anger you feel when you pay hundreds if not thousands of dollars on training courses only to find out the course material or the instructors themselves were less than mediocre. Unfortunately, this is an all too common experience that many students have and will endure in the Security and Executive Protection industries.
While some states have mandatory courses for Security that are regulated by the state, most of the additional training officers receive is not regulated. In addition, as most of you know, the material taught in the state regulated courses is less than adequate. It is simply a theory course that involves zero practical or hands on training.
As for Executive Protection, there are a handful of states, if that, that have a state regulated course. This means that when you attend an Executive Protection school, nobody is regulating what is being taught or who it is being taught by. This means you are basically taking a gamble and hoping that what you are being taught is accurate, and the person teaching it is experienced. To be honest, this is rarely the case with most Executive Protection schools.
What you will find, is that the school was opened by a retired law enforcement officer or somebody that took a course at another school and saw the potential to make money. Regardless, most schools are being taught by those who have spent little to no time in the industry. And, since the states don’t regulate these courses, it will continue.
This is why it is extremely important to research your school and your instructors. Make certain that not only have your instructors worked in the Executive Protection industry, but they are active in it now! Remember, the Executive Protection industry evolves and changes just like any industry. If you are planning on attending a school where the instructor is the same person instructing for the last 20-30 years, you may want to find out how many jobs they have worked in those last 20-30 years. I bet you will be surprised.
This is why we always recommend that you go through a school that is licensed through the department of education. Then, you know that their curriculum and instructors have had to of been reviewed and approved. All instructors have had background checks performed on them and have had to provide credentials that attest to their knowledge and ability to instruct. While even this isn’t perfect, it’s better than there being no check and balance system like it is at most schools.
Again, take the time to research your school and its instructors. And while I know there aren’t many licensed Executive Protection schools in the country, trust me, it is worth the expense of traveling and lodging to attend a quality school rather than waste your money at a school that gives you below average training. We always say here at ESS Global Corporation: There are two things you never cheap out on, gear and training. They are the two things that may save your clients life and yours!
Until next time, stay safe and stay alert!

Compromise vs Convenience

Posted on

BieberExecutive protection is not just about protection. It is in fact about the entire experience for our client. Now, while most of what we do is based upon security, some of it is simply based upon pleasing our client. We always teach in our courses here at ESS Global Corporation Executive Protection School, that you will always be balancing Compromise vs Convenience. That is the compromise of security that we must allow to enable the convenience of the client. As Executive Protection agents, we are always security minded and want to keep security at a high level. Unfortunately, high levels of security are not always convenient for our clients. While we would like to keep them locked down under our supervision 24/7, they like to go outside, go shopping, go eat, etc. In order to do this, we have to drop the level of security a little bit to achieve this.
Now, this does not mean that we drop all security measures. It just means that we now have to be even more vigilant and aware than ever. Make sure you are always in YELLOW. Remember, we can never tell our clients NO. Well at least not in most cases. So, if they ask us to go somewhere, and we have advised them that it is dangerous to go there (like a nightclub), and yet they still wish to go, we must take them. And, if exactly what you warned them about happens, even though you advised them not to go there, guess who will be at fault. That’s right, YOU! We are always at fault.
For these reasons, it is extremely important to know your clients likes and dislikes so you can be prepared for moments like these and can perform a proper security advance to at least reduce the risk. While it still isn’t perfect, as most things are not in the Executive Protection industry, it will be safer. Knowing your clients likes and dislikes is first achieved through the client interview. A technique rarely used or taught anymore unfortunately. Remember, in anything, to be successful you must master the basics. Client profiling or client interviews are part of the basics in Executive Protection.
Until next time, be safe and stay alert!
