Profiler in Security and Surveillance David Francisco Camargo Hernandez

Just as there are criminalistic and occupational profilers, the latter of which I spoke about in the book "the occupational profiler", so there are security and surveillance profilers, who are people trained to prevent conflicting or dangerous situations in the jobs they perform, which are of vital importance to companies in their intuitive, predictive and preventive work of future events, in order to safeguard both public and private individuals and institutions from common and organized crime. The book presents a complete study of what a profiler in security and surveillance should be, since nowadays companies require well trained and skilled people who are not limited simply to a passive work in security and surveillance, since the person who dedicates to this important work must go one step further than the common people, while offering a friendly treatment and excellent customer service both internally and externally. In security companies, there is a weakness in the personnel hired, which is not always suitable for surveillance and security positions, generating risks for the people, information and goods in custody, and from which criminals take advantage to make their own and go unpunished. With professionalization, it is expected that the service and quality of those who provide it will improve. The risks associated with these activities must be identified and optimally addressed through proper work planning and continuous training.
