In this regard, it deals with patrolling, access control, CCTV, and electronic security systems.

Overall the book aims at expanding private sector policing, especially in countries with limited policing budget. There is need for professionalism in the private security sector around the world. It is vital that owners of land and property can afford the services of the private security to complement the role of the public police. It is hoped that, if widely and correctly implemented, the number of ungoverned spaces will reduce.

It is only then that surveillance and vigilance could play a meaningful role in the crime prevention.Finally, this book is based on UK security principles.
