EXECUTIVES AND INVESTORS (BOARDS, CEOs, CIOs, COOs, CFOs)
Some of the biggest challenges facing top management today include the global business environment; the necessity to make timely, well-informed decisions to lead change; and better understanding new threats to their organizations. As the business world rapidly evolves, leaders need more expertise in managing risks. For example, chief executives at some of the largest corporations have now become personally involved in the planning of corporate security since the September 2001 terrorist attacks. Top managers are now increasing security spending, reviewing disaster-preparedness documents, evaluating alternative vendors or partners in case of disruptions to their supply chains, and assessing their suppliers' ability to protect their assets from sabotage. In an era of heightened corporate governance, investors are increasing scrutiny of an organization's leaders and partners to reduce risk to their financial investments.

SECURITY PROFESSIONALS
Changes affecting organizational security include escalating global crime and terrorism, new threats to public safety, new and evolving technologies, developing standards, intense merger activity, and changing and maturing distribution channels. The role of the corporate security director is also changing. There is a trend to combine all forms of security under a single organizational umbrella. At a tactical level, technology is being infused into physical security tools, which are increasingly database-driven and network-delivered. At a strategic level, CEOs and corporate boards — motivated in part by regulations such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act — desire an enterprisewide view of operational risk. And at a practical level, a cohesively managed security function can deliver better security at a lower cost.
Vance understands that the role of the security leader in any organization requires more focus on the bottom line while optimizing security systems. Vance helps security professionals safeguard the company's assets, intellectual property, and computer systems, as well as the physical safety of employees and visitors. Vance identifies protection goals and objectives consistent with corporate strategic plans and global security policy standards. Vance can help oversee the investigation of security breaches and assist with disciplinary and legal matters associated with such breaches.
