About The Book
In “Securing Your Educational Institution, the Right Way,” author Tony R. Hutton confronts the difficulties of protecting educational institutions, where former calm settings for learning are experiencing growing sophisticated threats from violence through cyberattacks.
With over two decades of experience in this field, the author has provided a valuable book for educational administrators as well as security personnel who hope to create a culture of watchfulness and protection for these facilities.
This book covers both physical and cybersecurity measures, demonstrating the very role of technology and innovation in safety improvement.
Furthermore, between the pages of this book, Hutton elaborates on practical strategies for building robust security policies and integration of advanced technologies into the organization along with effective emergency response planning. He explains the necessity of understanding insider threats and developing an awareness base among staff and students as an integral part of forming a collective barrier against such threats.
Readers will gain knowledge of successes and failures in real-life case studies—all of which highlight the need for preventive action. Hutton’s contributions to compliance with legal frameworks and interaction with law enforcement further emphasize the multi-disciplinary approach needed to achieve security in educational institutions in the modern era.
As the nature of educational settings changes, “Securing Your Educational Institution, the Right Way” will provide readers with the information and resources they need to protect their communities when it matters most.
