Branden R. Williams, Business Security Specialist ? The SBIC 2013 ...
January 3rd, 2013 by Branden Williams
Today the Security for Business Innovation Council (SBIC) released their 2013 Trends Report which is chocked full of lots of great stuff for security professionals to consider as they begin to tackle the challenges this year will bring. While this report is not like anything the SBIC has released in the past, the four key findings are quite compelling and true to much of what my mission has been over the last several years. They are:
- Boost risk and business skills. Readers of my column (which has not been updated here in a while, but will be soon) know that the security professional that understands how the business works will be much more effective in adding value to his position and to the company. We?ve moved beyond the line of separation between IT and Business, yet many security professionals try to do their jobs without an understanding of either.
- Middle-management outreach. Often times security professionals push policy into the organization without explanation or even input from the folks ultimately impacted by the change. This has to change to ensure that the policy is followed.
- Supply-chain issues. This applies both for the informational supply chain as well as for the actual movement of goods (which is often coordinated electronically).
- Build and act upon tech savvy action plans. Security professionals face many disruptive technologies, and instead of shunning or ignoring them, we must enable them to work safely in our companies.
Go check out the report and see this video of EMC?s CSO discussing some of the key findings.

Use caution when operating ATVs | Jennings Daily News
All-terrain vehicles (ATV?s) are not used only for recreation any more, and have become an important tool in many work environments.
Because ATV?s are popular for work and recreation, injuries and fatalities are all a constant concern that should not be ignored. From 1992 to 2007, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports, there were 297 work-related ATV deaths in the United States, and 75 percent of them were males age 35 and older. Sixty percent of the fatal accidents occurred on farms, and 20 percent on highways.
?Rollovers are the most common cause of crashes,? said Louisiana Worker?s Compensation Director of Safety and Loss Prevention Mike Page. ?And those in the animal production industry have the highest risk of injury.?
ATV?s are among the deadliest products under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). The CPSC recently reported that between 2001 and 2010 there was an average of 659 fatal accidents (both recreational and work-related) per year involving ATV?s nationwide. In that same time frame, ATV accidents were the cause of more than 130,000 visits per year to hospital emergency rooms.
In Louisiana, there have been 246 fatalities (both recreational and work-related) from 1982 to 2010 involving ATV?s.
Incidents are generally the result of the following:
. Operating at excessive speeds
. Operating the vehicle on public roads
. Carrying passengers
. Riding on slopes and levees
. Carrying unbalanced loads or exceeding the recommended load limit of the vehicle
. Operator not wearing a helmet
. Lack of proper training
To reduce the possibility of being involved in an ATV incident, you should follow at least the following accepted practices:
. Obtain proper training for the ATV you will operate.
. Read and understand the operator?s manual before you ride.
. Fully understand the terrain on which you will be operating the vehicle. Are there site-specific hazards such as levees, embankments, excavations, or soft soil conditions that could result in the vehicle overturning?
. Always wear a helmet, gloves, long sleeves, pants, and boots.
. If you must haul a load, ensure it is balanced and does not exceed the manufacturer?s weight limit for the vehicle.
. Conduct a pre-ride inspection in accordance with the manufacturer?s recommendations.
. When riding watch for hazards such as rocks, stumps, fences, guy wires, embankments, levees, and low-hanging branches.
. Do not ride at excessive speeds. Adjust your speed for the terrain on which you are traveling.
. Do not carry passengers if the ATV is not designed to carry multiple persons.
. Keep your hands and feet on the controls to maintain control of the vehicle.
. Do not talk on your cell phone when riding an ATV.
. Do not operate an ATV under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
. Do not drive on paved roads. ATV?s are designed for off-road and are difficult to control on paved roads.

GENEVA (AP) ? A man armed with an old military rifle and a handgun shot and killed three women and wounded two men in a southern Swiss village, police said Thursday.
Police shot and wounded the suspect after he threatened to also shoot officers who arrived at the scene after the shooting in the village of Daillon on Wednesday evening, said interim cantonal police chief Robert Steiner. The gunman was then arrested.
Steiner said the suspect was using a military rifle that was once standard issue in the Swiss army during the first half of the 20th century.
"The shooter pointed his weapon at our colleagues, so they had to open fire to neutralize him, to avoid being injured themselves," police spokesman Jean-Marie Bornet told Swiss radio. He said the shooter lived in Daillon, and the motive for the shooting was not clear.
Prosecutor Catherine Seppey said the shooter ? who was not identified ? knew several of the victims, but "he was not known for making threats." He was unemployed and had been receiving psychiatric care since at least 2005, when he was first admitted to a psychiatric hospital, and was under the care of the cantonal agency that provides services and counseling to the disabled, she said.
Three of the victims, aged 32, 54 and 79, died at the scene, and the two injured men, aged 33 and 63, were taken to hospitals, Seppey said.
"We have no words to express ourselves after an event like this," Christophe Germanier, head of the Conthey district where the shooting occurred, told a news conference.
It wasn't immediately clear how the shooter obtained his weapons, but the rifle is popularly sold in military surplus markets.
Guns are popular among the Swiss. There are at least 2.3 million weapons stashed among a population of less than 8 million people. Gun clubs are popular in rural parts of the country, with children as young as 10 taking part in shooting competitions.
The country's firearms laws are relaxed, but haven't led to a high gun homicide rate. They have, however, raised concern about a high incidence of firearms suicides.
All able-bodied Swiss men who are required to perform military duty often take their army-issued rifle home with them even after completing military service. In 2007, the government began requiring that nearly all of the ammo is kept at secure army depots.
In 2011, voters rejected a proposal to tighten the gun laws, siding with gun enthusiasts, sports shooters and supporters of Switzerland's citizen soldier tradition.

1st-grader points finger, says 'pow,' is suspended
By NBCWashington.com
A Maryland first-grader has been?suspended for pointing his fingers?like a gun at school.
The boy, a student at Roscoe Nix Elementary School in Silver Spring, was suspended for one day. The incident happened a week after the Sandy Hook Elementary shooting in Newtown, Conn.
The family's attorney says the 6-year-old was playing with friends, not making threats.
"Evidently, he was pointing his finger at someone and saying, 'Pow,'" said Robin Ficker, an attorney for the family.

The boy's parents were scheduled to meet with school officials Wednesday.
The school system will not comment on individual disciplinary matters. But they did issue a statement detailing their typical procedure with younger students.
"Generally, in an incident involving the behavior of our younger students, we will make sure that the student and his family are well-informed of any behavior that needs to change and understand the consequences if the behavior does not change," said Montgomery County Public Schools spokesman Dana Tofig in a statement.
