Security Mindset
We explore people, incidents, lessons learned, best practices, and emerging issues involving communication and collaboration that affect security in mass-people environments and critical infrastructure.
Working with the INTERPORTPOLICE, our primary focus is preventive security—identifying risks, vulnerabilities, behaviors, and operational gaps before they develop into incidents. From there, we examine the broader security continuum of prevention, protection, preparedness, response, and, where appropriate, pursuit, with particular attention to how agencies, authorities, public safety personnel, and security partners communicate and work together.
Our objective is practical: to share experience, strengthen situational awareness, improve collaboration, and turn lessons learned into better security practices.

Part 1 - 9/11 - FROM THE INSIDE OUT w/Erik O. Ronningen, the last person to walk out of the S Tower
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Listen to Erik Ronningen and his day on September 11, 2001.
Part One: Erik was the last person to make it out of the South Tower of the World Trade Center. He tells of his escape from the 71st floor of the North Tower and recounts his incredible experiences from a day of sudden terror. Sometimes hard to listen, but still very enjoyable. At the same time, it helps us understand why 9/11 changed the world of security worldwide.
