The report sheds light on the type of background and knowledge many organizations now want to see in their current and prospective senior security managers. In the past, the three most prevalent backgrounds were military (for physical security and intelligence experience), law enforcement (for investigative and criminal justice experience) and backgrounds in other positions within the existing corporate security department (for security and corporate culture knowledge). "Security Leadership Background Trends," based on the results of a survey conducted in November and December 2006, highlights the backgrounds that are in demand today. You may be surprised at the change. (PRWeb Apr 7, 2007)
