Adapting to Evolving Threats: Physical Security Training with the MTW

In the perpetually changing sphere of nuclear security, the essential role of continuous training and preparedness cannot be emphasized enough. Security threats against critical infrastructure facilities are dynamic, ranging from security breaches and hostile intrusions to insider risks. To effectively safeguard critical assets, physical security officers must be well-prepared to adapt to new challenges and scenarios. This is where the Mobile Modular Tactical Training Wall (MTW) steps in as an invaluable training tool, redefining how professionals in the field can stay ahead of evolving threats.

What Equipment Can Security Operators Train With At The Range?

Security operators require not only good training techniques but also the proper equipment to prepare for various combat scenarios. There are plenty of tools that will enhance your range training and some are more impactful than others. We’re here to highlight what you should look for when deciding on what to bring with you to the range. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned professional, these tools can both sharpen your skills as well as your decision making.

How To Utilize Range Barricades For Tactical Training Exercises

Range barricades will enhance your tactical training exercises significantly. They provide more realistic conditions much like what you would face in a situation where you must quickly take cover and fire a weapon. The effectiveness of range barricades depends heavily on how they are utilized in training. The key to training with barricades is to acknowledge all mistakes on the range rather than in the field where the consequences are much more costly. The position of your body in conjunction with the position of your weapon and points of contact are the most important factors to look over when using a barricade.

CQB: Using Ballistic Shields For Shoot House Training

Close Quarters Combat or Close Quarters Battle training involves the preparation of tactical teams for situations where a physical fight with firearms between multiple individuals at a particularly short range may occur. Shoot houses help enhance both the performance of tactical teams and the efficiency of their missions as they are configured to resemble residential, industrial, and commercial areas. Throughout training, ballistic shields can be implemented for various scenarios. Raids, high-risk search warrants, and active shooter situations can be practiced with ballistic shields using both offensive and defensive tactics. There are fundamental CQB principles alongside room clearing and target engagement that are among the most common practices for tactical teams when implementing a ballistic shield in a shoot house.

Kontek’s Site Security Classes

A site security plan is necessary for organizations where criminal acts may occur. Whether it’s a pre-planned criminal act by an employee, a heated encounter between visitors, or a terrorist attack, site security ensures that people and equipment can stay safe until the dangers have been removed from the premises. These plans establish as many protocols as possible before an event happens. Its precautions not only take into account the structure of the facilities and the grounds, but also the individual likelihood of different threats befalling the site. From the least targeted to the most at-risk facilities, having a solid plan can help you keep everything under control even when your staff is in the midst of clear and present danger. We’ll look at how plans work and why site security classes can be the key to helping you implement them. 

What Types of Bullets Can Shields Stop: Mobile Ballistic Shields

Can A Ballistic Shield Stop A Bullet: Mobile Ballistic Shields

Ballistic shields come in several levels. Each level stops certain projectiles at certain speeds. Choosing the wrong level of protection means that someone could get severely injured or killed. The level you choose depends on what type of situations you find your officers in on a regular basis. However, more protection denies maneuverability. If you need maneuverability, you sacrifice protection.

Shoot House Training: Benefits Of Shoot House Training Exercises

Law enforcement and security personnel have ongoing challenges and shoot house training can help them get through some big hurdles and prepare your team. Being able to train correctly to be ready for anything takes time and secure facilities that can mimic what could occur. This type of training should occur in a shoot house where realistic tactics and situations are able to be constructed for the most comparable experiences.
