Description of the enterprising work that went into this entry and its significance or impact on readers:
There is never a shortage of security challenges for Security Management to cover, but the chaotic events of 2020—from COVID-19 to civil unrest to disinformation to election security—brought out the best in our reporting, complemented with outstanding and thought-provoking art and design. Security Management’s mission is to take global events and apply analysis and subject matter commentary to get to the heart of what security professionals need to know to effectively protect people, places, and things. These three issues—July, August, and September—epitomize Security Management’s mission and efforts this year.
In the July issue, we sought to prepare security professionals for emerging issues, including potential spikes in litigation driven by an economic downturn, as well as existing ones, such as widespread intellectual property theft.
The August edition addresses the pandemic’s effect on students, faculty, and school security personnel, connecting readers with subject matter experts they might not expect to find in a security publication, including child psychologists. Heavier features are balanced with Q&A interviews to add human interest and inspire further conversation.
In the September edition, contributed articles from security practitioners worldwide address timely topics such as the root causes of civil unrest and mass protests, pharmaceutical thefts, and how to pivot to remote hiring programs.
Security Management’s 2020 coverage demonstrates that there is often a security aspect behind almost every event in the world, but it takes diligent reporters and designers who understand the subject matter and their audience to connect to it.
