Terrorism Protection and Prevention Measures for Office Buildings

Terrorism Protection and Prevention Measures for Office Buildings The events of September 11, 2001 in the United States have changed the perspective of owners and management companies towards the security of office buildings. The initial reaction, which included general security measures with an unclear prevention role, is continuously being replaced by improved and more thorough decision-making process of prevention measures targeting specific types of threats. This paper proposes a layered approach for the protection and prevention against terrorism attacks on office buildings and the development of a city-wide Property Anti-Terrorism Taskforce, which will increase the cross-collaboration between real estate and law enforcement and emergency management agencies, while strategically preparing owners and property managers. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Journal of Real Estate Literature Taylor & Francis

Abstract

The events of September 11, 2001 in the United States have changed the perspective of owners and management companies towards the security of office buildings. The initial reaction, which included general security measures with an unclear prevention role, is continuously being replaced by improved and more thorough decision-making process of prevention measures targeting specific types of threats. This paper proposes a layered approach for the protection and prevention against terrorism attacks on office buildings and the development of a city-wide Property Anti-Terrorism Taskforce, which will increase the cross-collaboration between real estate and law enforcement and emergency management agencies, while strategically preparing owners and property managers.
