Book Description

May 31, 2008
According to the FBI, a violent murder occurs in the workplace every 19 minutes. This book teaches small business owners how to protect their business from workplace violence, theft, and helps with employee screening, as well as collecting debts after the judgment, etc. New York business consultant Marion Gropen said, "I have been dealing with keeping my companies' employees and funds safe for decades. I still learned quite a bit from this book, and will be keeping it handy for future reference. Buy it. Read it. Apply it. If even one technique is needed, you will have more than repaid your time, money and effort."

Editorial Reviews

Review

"A Versatile and Important Guide. This information-dense book will give you an important start on dealing with any security issue likely to arise in your business. Had a mugging in your parking lot? Here's how to make your employees and customers safer. Had a customer skip out on a large debt? This is where to go and what to do to get your money back. Want to do a background check on someone? Look here and find out how."

"I have been dealing with keeping my companies' employees and funds safe for decades. I still learned quite a bit from this book, and will be keeping it handy for future reference. Buy it. Read it. Apply it. If even one technique is needed, you will have more than repaid your time, money and effort." -- Marion Gropen, New York City Business Consultant

"Business Security is a comprehensive and explicit manual which focuses upon personal safety measures ranging from threat of physical attack to carefully screening one's employees to protecting one's network against computer viruses. While much of the physical safety advice comprising Business Security is especially appropriate for high-profile corporate VIPs who may be subject to kidnapping, attacks, or other dangers simply because of their wealth and status (whether at home or while traveling abroad), the more general self-defense guidelines for personal physical welfare, the security of computers and computer data, and the guarding against fraud or theft are directly applicable to all business owners and management personnel. Business Security is an absolute "must-read" for businessmen and businesswomen everywhere." -- Midwest Book Review

"One of the more important books that I have read!"

"Business Security is an amazingly complete how-to book for business owners. If one were using knowledge-based engineering to develop an artificial intelligence program for this oft-neglected area of business, this book would be an excellent source to use as the foundation. The author has gleaned articles from some of the top security consultants in the world and presented them in a logical, easy to understand format."

"As a retired intelligence professional, this reviewer was simply blown away by the completeness and usefulness of the information in this excellent book." -- Heartland Reviews

"The most complete manual to protect your family, home, and business. Worth the price of ten books because it is ten books in one!" -- Joseph Culligan, Author & NAIS Hall Of Fame member

Protecting Yourself

The scenarios in this book are very helpful in protecting yourself from a lot of grief. Things you don't ordinarily think about are pointed out to alert you of potential safety risks. It may be titled Business Security, but some of the safety measures can be taken for the individual and ordinary person. The book is an interesting book to read and entertaining. Some items are even good for group discussions. I gave it 5 stars because the book is easy to read and there is useful information in it for everyone whether you own a business or not. -- Unknown Reviewer posted on bookfinder4u.com

From the Publisher

    Business Security is the perfect gift for supervising employees, colleagues, and clients to help them circumvent the security potholes that ultimately appear in most businesses, thus saving them immeasurable time, money, and future problems. A free Merchant’s Association seminar in your town on Business Security, taught by your local expert, could be well received in your area. Business Security is a comprehensive security training tool.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to Read, August 31, 2004
This review is from: Business Security (Paperback)
Having been in the pool business for 25 years, I know how busy and hectic daily routines can be. Reading a book is the last thing I have time to do. Business Security is loaded with great subjects that I can look up and read only a few pages to learn what I need to know. I feel safer with the knowledge I've collected from the many different articles offered in this realistic, post 9-11 based book. I highly recommend this book to anyone, whether business related or not, to use as a "security dictionary" whenever the need arises.

This review is from: Business Security (Paperback)
As a security consultant and author, I found this to be a great reference that I refer to again and again. This is a great read for both large and small business owners who understand their responsibilities in a post 9/11 world. Nice Job!! Robert Siciliano
