Mounting terror strikes has cornered India
• The more we sweat in peace, the less we bleed in war. To justify this, all organization high commands must come up with periodic mock drill of how to act sessions for terror strikes and bomb threats apart from fire and earthquake disasters.
• Electric fencing for a minimum of 3 feet over a 6 feet wall should be must. We must also ensure that beyond the compound wall there must not be any tall trees or equal height houses or even parking space for any heavy vehicle to rest. In case this, will pose equal threat to the organization. Neighboring residents should be cooperating in this regard.
• Hidden cameras, CC Tvs and other surveillance and remote sensing equipments must be awake and alive round the clock and would be nourishing with views of the vital strategic installations round the clock.
• High ground Security towers must be stationed at each corners of the compound, equipped with binoculars, night vision equipments, wireless sets, fox lights and early warning sirens be must.
• Emergency rescue team to be well trained with primary evacuation procedure and instant response in case of terror attach and bomb hoax.
• Most precious buildings inside the compound must be fitted with safety room grill doors that can instantly seal the complex at the press of a button and thus protect all assets from any kind of assaults.
• All employee Id cards must contain their blood group, emergency contact number and nearest hospital emergency cell number. This will help rescuers instantly respond with adequate help.
• Night time patrolling must be assisted with sniper dogs. Implementing laser beam torches and sensors facing each other along the length of the compound walls is also effective. Anyone trying to pass thru the invisible laser beam will invariably trigger the sensors to raise an alarm.
• Anti terrorist counter measures must be educated to IT each employees on a corporate initiative basis by anti terrorist cell of city police.
• Baggage checking and ammunition detectors must be installed at check points. Employees and officials should bear with any inconvenience caused and should voluntarily support this move.
• Security personnel guarding inside the compound must be modernized and well equipped with state of the art ammunitions to counter any threat.
• Company should have all privileges to check and monitor any employees mails, stuff on disk or even tap any employee's calls inside office compound without prior notice.
• Company trips, picnics, Outings must be accompanied with security personal, or the city police and destination police station should be informed well in advance about the trip demography.
• It companies must train employees all precautionary and preventive measures against suspected terror threat and unattained objects. Any suspicious object or baggage if unattended lying inside compound should be instantly cordoned around and covered with sand bag piles or a sturdy object ( A big size concrete garden flower pot also solves the purpose ). The objective should be restricting any bomb sprinters inside the cover in case it goes off. A basic knowledge of crude bomb diffusion is an added advantage.
• Multistoried buildings must have other instant evacuation routes and infrastructure apart from stairs. ( inflatable air cushions, knotted ropes, rope stairs and many such things can be implemented )
• All gates and entry check points must be manned with at least an armed security personal behind sand bag cover.
• Digital Alarming system is a good early warning system, but speaker phone serves better as people can be guided & navigated directly from the control room and thus we can prevent panic stricken people running towards the danger zone.
• All employees must be aware of Do's and Don'ts during gun shots, fire arm fights and grenade hurls. Female employees need to be extremely taken care off.
• In case of hostage crisis or hijack situations, employees must be well aware of how to respond or react. Any wrong step by any employee in haste or anger may worsen the situation and lead to massacre.
• Local police stations, company Administration and high command should be at a button press distance from the security check points. It must be learnt that any delay in communication or decision making will pile up casualties at the other end.
• Organization should have computerized automatic call facility that can spread the emergency news to all cell phones instantly. Thus we can even reach to any employee who is not on desk or even in compound and keep them at large. ( Synonym : Some times a scheduled automatic call from Airtel comes and upon picking up we hear a computerized voice about their new offers. This system can be implemented ). Let the security control tower just take a moment to frame the sentence and upon press of an enter button the call should happen to all employees cell.
• With the rise in sophistication, terrorists may get equipped with electronic and digital warfare equipment. Necessary counter measures must be well in place.
• Primary Medicare equipment boxes should also be containing pharmacy for wounds and injuries caused due to bullets, grenade fragments and Chemical bombs.
• In case of extreme urgency, to prevent the terror threat at least till force arrives, it's better to train few most loyal and courageous employee and thus prepare an internal set of volunteers with counter striking power.
