Hello Josh.
I am also curious what the responses will be to this question.
Security is a multi-disciplinary field and requires understanding of technology (user access, cameras, security software), banking regulations (safety and physical security), and the facility side. What I observe is that the role of security officer is often pigeon-holed within one department that rarely has expertise in all three fields whereas a dedicated expert or committee is often what's needed.

Afternoon!
I am interested in finding out how security is handled at your institution and at what threshold this might be considered a stand alone role? As we look to expand and new technology is introduced just trying to get an idea of what others are doing.
Thanks in advance.
