Schreiber To Speak at CONSULT Technical Security Symposium 2023
/We are excited to share that our Founder and President, Mark Schreiber will be speaking at the upcoming CONSULT Technical Security Symposium on October 13th - 16th at the Hyatt Regency in Louisville, Kentucky!
(Park Suite | Sunday, October 15, 10:45 AM - 12:00 PM): CPTED - Think Outside the Box
His first session, "CPTED - Think Outside the Box" will cover how physical security consultants can "think outside the box" when it comes to providing facility hardening measures. This at times means providing additional or more unique services when it comes to providing clients with a higher customer value.
However, this can prove challenging due to having to get creative when thinking outside of traditional design. One of the most successful "out of the box" ideas that have been implemented by experienced consultants, however, is the application of Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED).
The International Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design Association defines CPTED as, "a multi-disciplinary approach of crime prevention that uses urban and architectural design and the management of built and natural environments". This idea is focused more on behavioral science than target-hardening strategies. This strategy is concentrated on utilizing environmental design concepts to deter criminal conduct and sustain legitimate use by employing various resources such as architecture, engineering, landscaping, facility operations, signage, and lighting to lessen the necessity of traditional technical and operational security elements. Overall, its goal is to create an environment where legitimate users feel secure while criminals feel vulnerable. In order to create this environment and overall senestation, users of CPTED employ four vital elements of natural and man-made conditions: Natural Surveillance: Natural Access Control; Territorial Reinforcement; and Maintenance / Management.
Joining Schreiber to expand on the idea of CPTED, is a panel of highly experienced consultants and educators who have implemented CPTED into their own designs for various clients and organizations. The panel includes Dan Keller (American Crime Prevention Institute), Phil Santore (Introba), and Robert Summers (Summers Associates).
We hope you will consider joining this session and will consider implementing CPTED applications into your own designs following the session!
(Park Suite | Sunday, October 15, 2:45 - 4:15 PM): ChatGPT and Similar Tools to Know ... Tools to Use?
Schreiber's second session, "ChatGPT and Similar Tools to Know .. Tools to Use?" will cover the basic definition of artificial intelligence (AI), its various forms and categorization, and the risks and benefits of utilizing AI in both the security and marketing industries. Afterward, Schreiber will dive into a demonstration of various forms of AI that prove to be efficient when implemented from a marketing standpoint or to be more specific a security marketing standpoint. During this portion of the session, attendees will also be invited to participate following the demonstration of the various forms of AI to gain hands-on experience with the tools presented.
Joining Schreiber in presenting will be Jim Elder (Secured Design). Together they will cover how ChatGDP can inspire new ideas. However, they will also cover how the over-reliance on these tools can inspire conflict to arise. Some of the various risks of using an artificial intelligence tool are that they can be utilized to fake identities, create spear phishing attacks, and spoof audio and video content. Attendees in this lab will gain first-hand experience with ChatGPT in a series of instructor-led exercises while seeing how their peers have utilized it within their own work while also discussing more implications for the technology within the security and security consulting industries.
We hope to see you in attendance this Friday through next Monday (October 13th - 16)!
