SCHEDULE

The Art of Security: Assessing and Communicating Threats

3–3:40 pm

| Tuesday, Sept. 23

This panel will look at the concept that security is security no matter the size of the organization, or how specialized it may be. From entire campuses to individual exhibits, and how to access and communicate risks in both. The complexity of the risk management tool changes with location and the type of exhibit. Also how to communicate the assessment from non-security persons to seasoned professionals.
