Expanding the security candidate pool

The corporate security profession today represents a marked departure from the traditional “guns, guards and gates” perceptions of the past.

“Security is viewed more now as a sophisticated discipline than in the past — it’s more than putting guards in front of the building. In terms of enterprise security risk management (ESRM), there’s a broader understanding of what security is now,” says Rico Falsone, corporate security executive, Adjunct Professor at the Georgetown University School of Continuing Studies, and Senior Attorney in the cybersecurity practice area at the law firm Bradly Arant Boult Cummings, LLP.
