Course Overview

Security arrangements around theft and asset loss investigation are tested by adversaries, not by auditors. Insider risk in loss investigation is uncomfortable to discuss and expensive to ignore. It establishes a shared vocabulary for the corporate security practice capability so that teams can disagree productively about it. Buying a tool rarely fixes theft and asset loss investigation; the underlying capability has to be built internally first. Participants gain a clear basis for measuring what this part of corporate security practice has actually achieved. Participants apply loss investigation to their own protected site throughout, so the output is directly usable. The programme suits teams tackling theft and asset loss investigation together as readily as individuals attending alone. Practitioner evidence points the same way: loss investigation improves fastest where responsibility for it is named and owned. Participants leave with a first-ninety-days plan for this strand of corporate security practice rather than a set of notes.
