Home Security Vulnerabilities
Having observed my residence from the outside so as to identify key security vulnerabilities or weaknesses, I now come up with an in-depth security vulnerability assessment of the said residence. Included in this assessment are recommendations on how the identified vulnerabilities or security weaknesses will be eliminated and/or minimized.
Vulnerability Assessment and Recommended Security Enhancements
Intruders more often than not 'case' homes before they attempt a robbery. What this means is that intruders scout for key vulnerabilities that would make a certain home their likely target. Having looked at my residence from an intruder's point-of-view, I was able to identify a number of key security vulnerabilities. In the section below, I revisit some of the vulnerabilities I spotted and make recommendations that would in addition to eliminating the said vulnerabilities also make my home more secure.
To begin with, the open bedroom window presents a perfect opportunity for an intruder to access the house and make away with something of value. Indeed, in the opinion of Capel (1997), being the most neglected venerable points, "the majority of all entries are made through windows." In the past, there are times I have left the front door unlocked while in the neighborhood. While my neighborhood is relatively safe, the likelihood of an opportunistic robbery cannot be ruled out. To eliminate this vulnerability, the first and most logical step will be to ensure that all doors and windows remain locked whenever am not in the house. Additional measures like double glazing can also be taken to further secure the windows. Double glazing according to Capel (1997) "is undoubtedly a deterrent as there are two panes of glass to penetrate instead of one." Hence for any intruder, this would provide an appropriate barrier against forced entry....
Home Security Vulnerabilities Intruders are constantly looking for home security vulnerabilities that might make their invasion easy and swift. This effectively means that the more vulnerable a home is, the higher its chances of being targeted by robbers. In this text, I keenly observe my residence from the outside in an attempt to identify potential security vulnerabilities. In addition to identifying the specific areas burglars would likely focus on; I also
By federal law, all passenger airliners now feature cockpit doors that are locked by the pilots from inside the cockpit. Likewise, pilot training now includes the specific instructions not to open the door in response to any occurrence or emergency in the passenger cabin; instead, pilots are under instructions to land the aircraft immediately in response to any perceived emergency that would have previously been cause to investigate beyond

Insurance Fraud After tax evasion, insurance fraud is considered the highest-ranked among white-collar crimes.
