Course Overview

Insider risk in intelligent surveillance and video analytics is uncomfortable to discuss and expensive to ignore. A control on video analytics that is never exercised is an assumption, not a defence. The programme uses small-group work so that each participant's treatment of this aspect of corporate security practice is examined, not just described. The outcome is a practitioner who can hold a position on intelligent surveillance and video analytics and revise it on evidence. Participants leave with a method for this area of corporate security practice, not a set of opinions about it. Buying a tool rarely fixes video analytics; the underlying capability has to be built internally first. Benchmarking exercises repeatedly place intelligent surveillance and video analytics among the areas with the widest performance spread. The level assumes working familiarity with the protected site but no prior formal training in video analytics. Work concludes with a self-assessment of the practice within corporate security practice that participants can repeat annually.

Expected Learning Outcomes

01

Design layered controls for intelligent surveillance and video analytics across deterrence, detection, delay and response.

02

Verify that improvements to video analytics have held six months after they were introduced.

03

Assess and control third-party and contractor exposure in intelligent surveillance and video analytics.

04

Handle the trade-offs in video analytics between speed, cost and assurance explicitly rather than implicitly.

05

Balance security requirements in intelligent surveillance and video analytics against operational practicality.

06

Identify vulnerabilities in video analytics and rank them by consequence.

07

Structure records of intelligent surveillance and video analytics so that they answer the questions an auditor will actually ask.

  • Confirm access control on intelligent surveillance and video analytics cannot be routinely bypassed.
  • Prepare the response for the most likely failure in video analytics.
  • Exercise the plan for intelligent surveillance and video analytics under realistic conditions and record failures.
  • Establish what evidence demonstrates video analytics is under control.

Session 2Who answers for video analytics, and to whom

  • Close out actions on intelligent surveillance and video analytics rather than leaving them open indefinitely.
  • Anticipate the objections video analytics will raise and prepare the answers.
  • Rank the weaknesses in intelligent surveillance and video analytics by consequence rather than by ease of fixing.
  • Define the first response actions for an incident involving video analytics.
