Crowdguard Webinar: Understanding HVM for Events
10:00 AM – 11:00 AM (GMT), 22nd January 2025
When most people think of Hostile Vehicle Mitigation (HVM), they picture Vehicle Security Barriers (VSBs). While these barriers play a critical role in protecting events, they are only one piece of the puzzle. As safety advisory groups, local authorities, and law enforcement increasingly request HVM measures for events, understanding their full scope is essential for effective security planning.
This webinar will be delivered by Russ Phillips, our Counter Terrorism and Risk Director, and Iain Moran, our Managing Director. It will dive into the key elements of HVM planning, implementation, and response strategies. Topics include:
- The Benefits of a Complete HVM Plan: Understanding how a comprehensive approach goes beyond simply deploying physical VSB’s barriers to create a cohesive security strategy.
- The Role of Key Stakeholders: Exploring the critical contributions of safety advisory groups, local authorities, law enforcement, and event organisers in shaping effective HVM solutions.
- Practical Applications: A worked example showcasing how HVM plans can be developed, highlighting key considerations and common challenges.
Whether you’re an event organiser, local authority, safety officer or part of an advisory group, this webinar will provide valuable insights to help you build a robust HVM plan that ensures the safety and security of your events.
Don’t miss this opportunity to enhance your event security strategies and prepare for the evolving security landscape.
