From “What the Experts Say”, by Michael J. HAWLEY, Esquire: At a time when an assured security presence is of foremost concern in virtually every sector of civilized society, in boardrooms as well as bedrooms, this work is both timely and of momentous practical value. Novices will find this book to be a useful primer; seasoned practitioners will welcome the detailed format and rich reference sources. READ pays powerful tribute to the historical foundations of the security profession, but also furnishes a comprehensive overview of the field as a whole, demonstrating effective and proven techniques, along with the vitally important aspects of why and how. No competent security consultant should be without it. Never before has there been such synthesis of topical material in one place. From the practical basics to the psychological underpinnings necessary to succeed in this field, MAXIMUM SECURITY provides unique insight and perspective.” From the Foreword by: Richard F. FORNO, Author of 'Incident Response' and former Senior Security Analyst, U.S. House of Representatives. In his books, PRINCIPLES OF SECURITY CONSULTING and now MAXIMUM SECURITY …Defusing the Threat…, we quickly learn that security in any form is, as Charlie READ says, “as much a perception as it is a reality”… MAXIMUM SECURITY prepares the reader for establishing professional security credentials. His approach takes the reader from a historical foundation to modern-day security services and systems. He shares proven security surveys that, if followed, provide a detailed map sure to guide you effectively in conducting virtually all physical security inspections. His style is designed to have you think and act unconventionally regarding security matters. As you read this work, keep in mind that Major READ is a security professional with significant experience in developing and managing security programs from an unconventional point of view, both as a special operations officer in the military and now as a civilian consultant. His significant operational career experience and unconventional approach to security is coupled with a down-to-earth style that presents a fantastic, readable, and relevant text on what it takes to become not just a good security consultant, but a great security consultant. After all, security is a state of mind.
