Active Shooter Preparedness

Wednesday, July 12, 10:00 a.m. CT

Lee Otten, Protective Security Advisor, Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency

Preparing employees for a potential active shooter incident is an integral component of an organization’s incident response planning. Because active shooter incidents are unpredictable and evolve quickly, preparing for and knowing what to do in an active shooter situation can be the difference between life and death. Every second counts. Participants will learn the key steps of recognition, prevention, and preparedness.
