Polished protection

Article Abstract:

The UK security industry is having to adapt its style of business to cope with new types of crime, technological innovations in security equipment and a greater role for security operatives.

Some experts suggest that the security industry requires further legislation to ensure that standards of operatives rise. Firms must be prepared to pay extra for guards who have greater expertise.
