The layers must provide comprehensive security in support of common goals. Deny The objective is to keep threat actors out, while allowing authorized persons to enter. This is achieved through a variety of means using both personnel and equipment. Deter To persuade the threat actor to avoid attempting a breach of a facility's perimeter or other controlled areas. This should be accomplished as far from the facility as possible and is often a combination of physical security apparatus and personnel. Delay The objective is to slow down a threat actor long enough to allow the law enforcement/security officer (Officer) response forces to engage the threat. Detect The objective is to detect possible threat actors as they attempt to breach a facility's perimeter or other controlled areas, thus allowing for an effective officer response. Defend The objective is to provide an effective officer response that prevents the threat actor from engaging the protected assets.
