Security Protection to Ensure the Safety and Well-Being of Students
Frank Costa, President, Nexgen Protection Services
To ensure the safety and well-being of students, security protection should encompass both physical measures—such as secured perimeters, surveillance systems, and controlled access points—and proactive approaches, including anti-bullying policies, mental health support, positive student-teacher relationships, and comprehensive emergency response plans. All of this should be implemented while fostering a safe and inclusive school environment.

Mitigate Losses to the Supply Chain with Robust Security Protection
Frank Costa, President, Nexgen Protection Services
Companies lose billions of dollars annually due to cargo theft. Many manufacturers don’t realize their shipments have been stolen until it’s too late, often discovering the issue only when the shipment fails to arrive on the expected date.
To mitigate losses in the supply chain caused by security threats, key protection measures include:
- Thorough vendor vetting
- Robust access controls
- Data encryption
- Continuous monitoring
- Incident response planning
- Supply chain visibility through technology
- Diversifying suppliers
- Implementing strong cybersecurity practices across all tiers of the supply chain, ensuring all partners adhere to the same security standards.
