A Corporate Security professional operates in a dynamic environment. He/ she might be responsible for asset and personnel protection of an organization, risk identification and its mitigation, but it must be noted that the nature of threat itself undergoes a lot of changes. A security professional must be open to work on new challenges. Moreover, each industry has its own risk appetite. A security professional must be open to learn newer things within his job role and beyond. Work with multiple stakeholders. This is where the CCSMS program comes in handy.
