About Adept Security

Today’s society faces not only more threats, but greater threats than any other generation in the past. Today’s threats are broader and more diverse than ever before. From terrorist Weapons of Mass Destruction to Hazardous Materials leaks to natural disasters, we have grown accustomed to phenomenal amounts of devastation. While they have always been with us, we have seen disasters and acts of terrorism of biblical proportions in just the last few decades. According to FEMA, the disasters that Americans should prepare for, taking location into consideration are as follows: • Avalanche • Drought • Earthquake • Epidemic • Flood • Hurricane • Landslide • Tornado • Tsunami • Volcanic eruption • Wildfire • Winter storm As far as technological disasters go, FEMA outlines the following threats, almost all of which a proper emergency preparedness program can mitigate: • Dam failure • HAZMAT release • Power failure • Radiological release • Train derailment • Urban conflagration • Airplane crash And finally in the area human caused disasters: • Civil disturbance • School violence • Terrorist act • Sabotage While these aforementioned threats are all real, the possibility varies from place to place. However, there are certain threats that could have national implications such as a monetary meltdown or transportation strike among others. The threat is as real as the headlines on any newspaper and they are increasing in intensity.
