Preparedness of Large Retail Malls to Prevent and Respond to Terrorist Attack, 2004 [United States]
Description
The purpose of this project was to assess the level of
security in large indoor shopping malls. The researchers administered
surveys to the security directors of the nation's largest indoor
retail malls. The researchers sent letters with surveys attached, to
1,372 security directors of enclosed retail malls across the country,
which were at least 250,000 square feet in size. A total of 120
completed surveys were returned. The survey instrument was divided
into the following nine sections: (1) Hiring Standards, (2) Training,
(3) Security Budget, (4) Human Surveillance Strategies, (5) Access
Control Plans, (6) Technological Enhancements, (7) Emergency
Preparedness Procedures, (8) Relations with the Public Sector, and (9)
Opinions about Terrorist Threat.
